I disagree Sam. No matter how positively ideological we might be, the US is not about to elect a black man as President. Despite all the PC, there is still an inherent level of racism abounding.

Noahath, I think I have to agree with Gem and Samantha.

I have been following Barack Obama’s rise since his speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, and what has struck me is how much appeal he seems to have among Americans from a wide political spectrum.

In terms of the racist factor, I tend to agree with Gem’s comments about the desire for change being strong enough for people to move forward on that question.

I also believe that voicing any reservations about his chances to win office won’t help his run. No doubt, many Americans are asking themselves whether or not they would vote for a Black president. I think it is important for us to voice confidence that they will, if the man is right for the task.
