Is America ready for a Black President?

[lobito]

Do you think America or indeed the world is ready for a Black American President, I am not sure but I hope they are. Would Obama make a difference? Or should we hope for a United Africa, with one leader to change our fortunes. Africa is blessed with clever people and natural resources to be a world leader, would Obama make a good President of United Africa?

there is little or no doubt that 'people' didnt know Barack is gonna come this far, and these 'people' will do everything they could to stop him, even make his government fail, if he ever gets there. but like Michelle Obama said, 'it is time we stop letting fear rule us or control what we can or cannot do'. Posterity will judge us if we refuse to play our own little part in making a better world.

I don't think America is ready. The white folks are just being politically correct and will not say it. When blacks vote for Obama, it is a problem and they need to explain why they are voting for someone of their race. When whites vote for Hillary, they are blue collar workers!!!

Well said, Pumping! America might not want a black president, but that's what they are going to get!

It's about time black people make history in America! Being black is almost a curse! Even God said Jacob (white) I loved, Esau (black) I hated!

Indians who became kenyans, consider black people scum.

White people would first choose someone that looked almost white i.e. Indians, Polish people etc, before they choose someone black!

Even black people are weary and suspicious of black poeple! Make no mistake, i have nothing against any race, I'm just calling it like it.

I read this somewhere many years ago, I'll try to reproduce it:

In England am a Black man

In Africa, am a Nigerian

In Nigeria, am a Ibo man

In my state, am from another village

Please tell me, where is home?
