"Maybe I'm too naive, but isn't the best way we can show that The Country Is Ready For A Black And/Or Woman President is to stop talking about it so damn much? Besides, when did presidental campaign announcements fully 2 years before inauguration day become full-day above-the-fold news stories? Especially when they're obvious? Geez."

It's not trying to show that we're ready, it's the fear that we're not ready and that biased but otherwise normal voters will unexpectedly swing the election.

And is campaigning for president 2 years ahead of time less reasonable than sending out Shabbat meal invitations on Tuesdays? :)
