It is a reason to vote for him? 40 years ago the suituation in America was much different - Black people couldn't sit at a certain places on a bus let alone become president. By Obama being elected it's a big leap forward - hence why everyone keeps saying it's history in the making. People wern't this hyped when Bush or Clinton became president.

THERE ARE JUST AS MANY IF NOT MORE PEOPLE WHO VOTED AGAINST BARACK OBAMA BECAUSE HE IS BLACK THAN FOR HIM BECAUSE HE IS BLACK.

the problem with your logic is that you think he isnt protected. the president of the united states is the most protected person on earth, and barack obama if anything is even more protected. there's secret service covering a radius of 2 miles everywhere he goes. one angry racist cant even get close to him.

well if one did become prime minister, then it shows that society has gradually accepted that race to be in power of the country. of course they'll always be people against it, but as RedStratocas said, they'd be heavily protected. that protection may not always suffice and problems still may get through, but tbh its unlikely as they've probably learnt from past mistakes.

These people would plan the assasin weeks/months before they did it, they would have back up plans and everything. He can't stay protected every second of his life.

he is 100% american. he's born in america, thus he is an american citizen, as required by law in order to be president.
and the fact that hes black has been rarely brought up. i took a journalism class last semester, i had to pay attention to the news nonstop, and i can say it was rarely brought up in the media. the majority of times people have brought it up in general is when they THINK everyone is talking about it :/

Yes exactly, I really do feel sorry for all of them proud Americans, when I went to Florida even the taxi driver agreed with everything me and my family said, she also said that he will be assasinated if he becomes the president which now he has. I'm fed up of seeing a load of raving black people on the tv holding posters that always have "black president" written on them. Did you know that 99% of America's toughest high school is black? (It's on sky anytime TV so watch it if you want) They are always causing trouble in the streets with guns, rap and crime. America really could of done without black people. Who would of thought that the son of a Kenyan farmer would become the American president, it just showed all the black people in Kenya jumping around and dancing and I said to my mum "could you imagine one of them being the president of America, because one is". Loads of people where chanting "death to obama", well thats what the news reporter just sad anyway.
This is what annoys me the most, you can get an african family and let them have a baby in any country you want but the baby is still going to be an african...
Erm, no. He's african american, not african. Yes that is true in effect, but he was born in america, has grown up in america, is classed as an american.

real americans are native americans. iirc that's about 1% of the now population. they're getting driven out, they should be the rulers. in 10 years times it's estimated america while have more hispanics then white people (+ the originals and other minorites, got this from school so idk if it's right).

if you're going back as far as it being native american land then who's to say you can't go back and say it's dinosaur land? yes, let's stick a t-rex in charge. that's about as valid as your argument is.
it's not the land itself that he's leading.
it's the people, the society. you will never be able to find one definitive real starting point for where american began as a society so why try and be awkward? by true definition he is american - whereas your argument makes you look like a fool.

you can't assume because someone is black because they are ill-educated when there are literally millions of intellectual black people on the earth. you're the uneducated one for stating such ridiculous things.

Most racists are lower-class citizens with bad educations. They like to blame all of society's problems on people who aren't like them, i.e. not white, poor etc. If they think shooting a black guy for being black will solve their problems then good for them... but it won't.
Youre now stereotyping. You dont deserve to have an opnion because you are influenced by the media too much. @mint btw. We are not all the same. We have different cultures. Take jen for example. anyway, a black person deserves to be there as much as anyone else

exactly.
not everyone can be the same and by thinking they can that means destroying every different religion, culture, sexuality, hair colour etc. on the earth - that's basically becoming a nazi and aiming for one supreme race. in other words, ******* stupid.

Just because he's black doesnt mean he's not been educated, poor or from a starving poor country (he actually brought up in Hawaii?).
So if a white man is not educated, poor and brought up in a **** place but hes a american he should be president above a black man?

well tough luck really. hes black (well half anyway), and is president. theres nothing u can do about it so put up with it really. u can hope all u want that hes assassinated, but i doubt that'll happen. your arguments are based upon idiocic comments with no backbone and tbh just make urself look even more foolish.
like i said, only 1% of the population are the originals. None of them have ever been president i don't think. No, he shouldn't have, no-one should have. If Obama does a good job then kl but i think originals should be first choice so whatever, we'll just wait to see :)yeah i didnt read ur post until i posted mine lol. but how is anyone gonna know if they're in that 1% unless they know their entire family history or take like tests or woteva to find out? a bit extreme rly. yeah time will tell rly whether he does a good job or not. but with such high expectations from society, it'll be really hard for him to prove that he'll be a good president.

if you agree that all humans are basically genetically the same, especially mentally (which they are, as backed up by science), then why wouldnt barrack obama be a good choice? he is very very very well educated and grew up fine. but if you dont agree with that first statement, ill go ahead and stop paying attention to you lol.
and the fact that he wasn't brought up in wealth only makes him a better choice, he'll definitely be able to connect to average americans better than the spoiled previous president.

it's called a mistype. *******.
and you can't give one statistic to represent someone as being intellectual as the true definition of the word varies.
but here.. since you're so desperate to prove me wrong:
1.2 million
Among single-race blacks 25 and older, the number who had an advanced degree in 2007 (e.g., master’s, doctorate, medical or law). In 1997, 717,000 blacks had this level of education.
2.3 million
Number of single-race black college students in fall 2006. This was an increase of roughly 1 million from 15 years earlier.
notice how it says "single-race" so these figures would be proportionally higher for mixed race groups which include the "black race" so to speak :rolleyes:

nah i'm not desperate to prove you wrong, just seems you shoved it in to try make a point. If you're gonna make a point you do it correctly :)
ah okay because black people go to college (which is seen as the 'taking the easy way out route' around here:rolleyes:) it makes them intelligent. K, i don't even give a crap who's black or who's not. I'm talking about real americans so give me some stastics on that :/
by the way it says single-race black college students so why would it be mixed race groups :S and of course it includes the black race, it says black students...

having a masters degree is in no way an easy way out in any country, i don't think you realise how much work goes into such a thing, it's not just doing some salon course at your local city college.
if you're so interested in what it is to be a "true american" then whip a timeline out because you won't get anywhere. to be an american is to be classed as a declared american citizen, something of which obama is. you can try argue your way around that but it's permanent and unchanging.

i would vote him so he could get assisinated! that's a joke... i don't dislike him cause he's black i just don't like how his family aren't born in America, i don't find it fair. I don't have to live with it though, when UK starts allowing non-uk citizens to be elected then I won't be happy. Let's just see how well he does and give him a chance.
Whoever is selected to be president don't get there by people thinking it's "fair" or not. Whoever is thought to be able to do the best job will and should get it.
Obama shouldn't get it because he's not 100% American? He shouldn't get it because even though more people voted for them and therefore think he'll do a better job, it isn't fair to the losers who are 100% American and didn't get voted in because nobody thought they'd be as good as Obama?
Good thing you don't decide the rules. We'd be screwed:D.

oh well i didn't watch it even though my modern studies teacher asked me to. It's nothing to celebrate, he's BLACK so what ;l
It's a big deal because it's never happened before, and that someone who couldn't walk into a local restaurant 60 years ago because of his background can now be the most powerful man in the world?
Umm so imagine if a P@ki become our priminister, could you imagine how most of the english people would feel? Well thats how it is for a lot of American people, it only takes one to assasinate him...

Primarily because they're the same kind of people who parade around with the flag going on about what a free country it is.
Just reading through this all I really realised was "Mint" is a racist moron, I know alot of black people 100x smarter than you are, I don't even have to know you to know you're an idiot, just looking at your reasons why he shouldn't be president, he's live in the US all his life, he is legally allowed to live in the US and if he wasn't suitable to become president then why is he?
It's almost physically impossible for someone to assassinate him, he'll be driven around in bomb proofed vehicles, he'll more than likely have bulletproofing on, he'll have armed guards with him all the time and all the protection he needs really, which is obviously alot, he wont be assassinated anytime soon no matter how much you want it you sick little boy.

You're being racist so why would anyone change it? Doesn't matter what you think you're doing, Obama is American so you're not being nationalist you're being racist as you're saying he should be president because he's black. :rolleyes:

You're saying that based off of absolutely nothing but ignorance. You clearly have no idea what you're even saying now. How can you judge how Obamma was raised without having witnessed it yourself? Yet, you just make assumptions about it. The fact that you don't even think you're being racist is alarming to an extent.

Dude, the black has little to do it with it! thats just a extra thing that seems to hype him up, his policy is right, all the health care, the global warming, all the change he wants to bring the country, it's ******* corrupt over there, you think you know it all because a cabby driver agreed with your family, obviously your parents are teaching you this stuff aswell, do some research learn what it's really about not about the fact of the black and white, the fact of what he is trying to bloody do!

Because it's historical, thats why, the fact that he is the first black president, thats the difference, if someone had the same policies as him, which mccain didn't! it wouldn't have been him at all, you have to remember it's a very large and some what racist country!

No offense but you sound like someone who's brainwashed by the BNP. Nationalist isn't synonymous with racist. You can be a nationalist regardless of your race. You're making prejudices based on race therefore you're racist. Sugar coating it to be national pride doesn't change that, especially considering the fact you're a Briton talking about a black man as president of America.

first, i havent seen it nearly as much and im in america. most legitimate newspapers didnt discuss it much. secondly, because its true? idk. its interesting? it doesnt matter, but for a people that just 50 years ago were still discriminated against by law, it's a pretty remarkable and dramatic feat/change/whatever you wanna call it. its all a "right now" thing, in a month people wont be talking about it anymore.
itll pass. i dont see why you think its that big of a deal, tbh.
and just as a side statement, black people were brought to this country against their will, so its not like a mexican is president or something lol. saying that they shouldnt be allowed to be president is just plain silly.

because years ago, black people never though this day would happen. they were being killed, tortured and treated as second-class civilians. they didn't have the same rights as white people. black people are very emotional about this. the white house was built by African slaves.
