It's historic, whether race or gender.

However, your post ignores the fact that a Republican was not going to win that election.
Had Obama run as a Republican, he would have lost.
Therefore, he was not elected because he is Black.
It's not like millions of Americans decided one day to vote for President Obama simply because we wanted to "paint the White House black."
How is it so difficult to fathom that many people, naively or not, voted for this man because they believe him?
Reducing his accomplishment solely to his race is insulting and not right at all.
