There is a lot of informative shit on this thread, but there is a lot of fucked up shit too.

America was built on slavery. Only abolished barely over a century ago. Segregation was abolished 4 decades ago. White Americans still have their fears, and a lot of guilt.

Not to mention what we did to the Native Americans! Oh, I just made myself sad.

Don't be rasssssist and don't include all white Americans in that statement. ;)

Edit: Besides, America was built on indentured servitude.

Might as well be saying the same thing

No, I'm expecting that the basis this country was built on is going to continue to erode as it has since Lyndon Johnson...All through every administration since Democrat or Republican.

More like during and after Lincoln.

Seems to me that you guys keep talking about race. I could car less. Stop pointing it out all the time. If you really didn't care about it then it wouldn't always be on the tip of you tongue. Why is it that their is so much focused on black people (no not African Americans, they aren't F'ing African Americans. All that does is further separate/segregate. We are Americans. I don't call myself a Czech American. My friend is white and was born in Africa and lived there till his teens. He has been attacked for mentioning he is African. Kinda wierd...any who) What about Asians? How bout them? Why don't you hear about their hardships? Why don't they get the help others do?

Russia is already moving on Poland amongst other nice things that have suddenly been done around the world. Obama's side kick Biden called it. Enjoy.

I seriously doubt he won solely because he was black. But, his color and unusual upbringing added to the image he sought to project. Had he been white, there's no way he could have made such sweeping generalizations and made himself stand out from the rest of the politicians. His being black added to the mystique of him being an outsider and an agent of change. It worked on people of all skin colors. If he had been white do you think he could have beaten Hilary Clinton for the nomination?

July 2, 1964) was a landmark piece of legislation in the United States that outlawed racial segregation in schools, public places, and employment.

It is indeed amazing to think that only until 44 years ago, while some of us here were already born, segreagation was an accepted and legal situation. Amazing that it was accepted in the land of Milk and Honey and open opportunities, that there were two classes of citizens, split in two based by the color of their skin. 44 years ago is not far.

1964 is 3 years after BMW Neue Klasses started with the 1500. This is not medieval ages. That's only two generations. But sadly, it seems that the same spirit that found segregation normal back in the days, is still pretty much alive and rampant in 2008. Having a "coloured" president will hopefully allow some people to open their eyes, and realize that black is not the colour of evil.

Yea, Jesse Jackson, Oprah & Colin Powell were crying because they really liked his suit. 92% of blacks voted for him because of his foreign policy stance.

-Charlie

64% of the people that voted for him where white. That is why he won.

So when is the McPain bandwagon going to move?
