The video said the 40th President. Obama will be the 44th. Richard Pryor didn't think it would happen, probably. I noticed Marsha Warfield (Night Court) was one of the players. Jibs!

The guy with no dialog standing in the back early in the skit is Robin Williams. He certainly has made up for it since then!

That was quite a visionary skit for its time. The first black-American astronaut in space happened 6yrs later in 1983.

There have been several African-American astronauts, but none that were actually born in Africa that I'm aware of, Sherry.

One of my black ex Navy friends sent me this video clip and I just searched the jokebox before I downloaded it and you have it. Darn. I thought it was funny. Nice job. I thought that was Robin Williams in the back. Him, not talking at all. No way! 2 Italian thumbs up!
