Why should it f*ck*ng matter?This is where the media is f*cked up - just because he is black he's gettin extra coverage and being tipped as (results havent come out yet i know) the first black president.Fair enough but why make it so bleeding obvious?Who said the US was a white country? If i remember correctly, F.W.De Klerk was president of South Africa and lol hes whiteWhen it comes to choosing people as president or as leaders, people (most and not them who jump on the bandwagon) choose a leader for his policies and manifesto and Obama has gripped people with his great ideas for CHANGE. As earlier said, if he was white and had the same policies it wouldnt be a problem.What im tryin to say is apart from skin tone we're all the same -- as human beings. You dont end up with a hybrid alien when you have black and white (or any other race) mixed together do you?Race or talking about race just brings divide - kinda like what youre doingAbout why do they have to come try be leader in every other nation... smh kmft
