Having a president of color may or may not be good for the U.S.
Here is why (my opinion and I’m entitled to it)

-I have met many black people and I have seen my fair share of the good ones and the very bad ones. Most of the bad ones live in areas where gangs and riots happen frequently. Now having a black president could represent to them a way of having more power, more control. Since a black man can be a president – then they can do what ever they damn please.

On the other hand, this may give them a role model they have been needing in a long time and shut them up regarding the slavery and prosecution. cuz lets face it, at one point or another – somebody got screwed by the white man. Deal with it, and don’t let it happen again – smartly!!!

As for the elections – it was nothing more than a farce – a way to entertain the ignorant and uneducated (including myself – since I don’t know every fucking thing in this world hahaha)

It was clear to know and see that based on the bread crumbs that were left for us to follow that Obama would have won, one just had to keep their eyes open and brain functioning

Change, as you said, will not happen over night, and President Obama won’t be able to do it himself. The only reason he won the election is because he connected with many more millions of people than McCain did. People who he connected with did the same with their friends, family, and so forth. He did indeed put a much better image of himself to more Americans than McCain did, also showing class and the ability to lead.

I believe that most of the Americans that did not vote probably are not ready for this change, but because the people who did vote voiced their opinions to make the change happen, it will all help fast-forward the process. I appreciate that you will support Obama as he is our President.

I also believe that Obama was elected partly because people didn’t want to risk putting in power an administration so similar to President Bush’s. And to answer the racism question, well, people just have more of a reason to express their thoughts since more people are paying attention, and attention is what they seek.

To put it bluntly, I wonder if Americans really believed in this change Obama speaks about or if they just elected Obama so some can say racism is dead and use this election as an example. ft racism is dead, then why are there more racist comments than ever before about Obama? That’s another story altogether.

I understand the “change” won’t be overnight, but I expect some kind during his term or else his change is the same politics with a new coat of paint.

I hope you get the turn around that you’ve been waiting for.
