Re: Are we now proven to be a post-racist society?
I hate to say this because of what others might think, but I feel like most black people voted for Obama because he is black...for no other reason to say "Finally! We got a black person in the white house"...that some how this means something....but it reminds me of the mindset that we had here in LA when they acquitted Simpson. It seemed to me that a lot of people did not care if he was guilty or not...him getting freedom represented something to a lot of black people.
I'd love to have a black president...honestly I don't care what race or sex one is....I care more about what that president will represent domestically and abroad. When we care more about sound bites and skin color and not domestic and foreign policy for a leader we have truly lost our way as a nation IMO.
