Its sad too, because a lot of Black people don’t like Obama. I think it goes back to the vision of Black people hating each other instead of uplift each other like Jews and the Chinese do; and look at how properous their communities are. Sure they didn’t have “slavery” in America, but they’ve over came diversity and stuck tight in the community and are dominant groups now.

Black people need to do this with Obama. It doesn’t matter is his mother is white. He experienced the same racisms and hardships all Black people do. He wasn’t born into money. He was raised in an below average living environment like the majority of Americans. Hilary’s family owed malls. McCain family were millionares. So who do you think will understand your experiences more? And Black men, who do you think would more likely to give you pardon if you were given the death penalty? That was a joke sort of.

But think about when our kids are bigger. And they know their mom or dad voted to help put the first Black person in the white house. They would be proud. But imagine if he loses and 50% of Blacks didn’t even vote for him. They would look at our generation like we failed them. Like we didn’t care about their future.

Some people say jokingly that Omaba wasn’t enslave the whites in America. That sounds like what we’eve been going through for the last 300 years.

The question shouldn’t be if America is ready….you mean is white america ready?

I’ve witness too many successful black entrepenerus, scholars, lawyers/judges etc…to question a black person’s ability.

First of all, he is not the first black president. there were 4 previous president who were blacks, and Bill CLinton is not black so stop it.

Will Obama win? Yes, of course. as long as he plays along with the scheme of the system and the 1% wealthiest family; and he doesnt get progressive then he’ll be just fine.People still hasnt realize that being black is not just the color of your face, but your soul and spirit(this doesnt apply to white people, so keep trying lo.) therefore, it doesnt matter if Obama is black. Its his action that will prove and show the truth.

Is America ready for a Black president? I think no but I hope dude wins america needs a change everybody wants a change if Clinton win it would only take american backwards even more.

We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can withstand the power of millions of voices calling for change.- Barack Obama

I’m black and I don’t want him to run for president because I don’t think he can win against Mccain, not sayin that mccain is a better canidate just that the government is setting obama up for a fall because they want a republican in office and not a democrat.
