Dwarves are a pretty powerful race with Second Wind as a minor action (compared to a standard action as it is for all other players.) This is pretty big for the melee combatants that can move, attack, second wind all in the same round. Sometimes you really need to heal to take that extra attack but you don't want to give up an attack to do it.
Humans are really great too with their added versitility with a free skill, feat, and +1 to defenses.

Second wind as a minor may be a pest for wizards who may want to be sustaining something as a minor action.
That's the nifty stuff I can't wait to see more of ...

That's the nifty stuff I can't wait to see more of ... Sustain + Second Wind (minor instead of move) + Standard Sustain + Move + Second Wind (minor instead of standard)
He can't sustain, move, second wind and attack all in the same round, but it sure adds to his options in a round.

The key to the Human being the 'king' of 3.5E optimization was the extra feat and the lack of a stat penalty.
Instead of seven feats over 20 levels, in 4E we get 18 feats over 30 levels(every even level plus 1, 11, and 21). Feats also seem to have less impact than the 'big' 3E feats. While the Human bonus feat is good, it isn't as big a deal as it was previously. ...yet. Give the splatbooks time to work their magic. :D

Ironic that Lead the Charge is best used by having loads of people go first and give you their bonuses to hit  ..and if you're multi-marking wouldn't you want to do it with a Paladin?
