Question

Why is it important for barrack obama as a first african american president?

Answer 1

fail

Answer 2

Even though I'm black, i could care less if he is black, if no one black is good enough to be president, then so it be, i don't want to have a black president just to prove we can let blacks do anything, so I'm not voting for him just because he is black. I see no color, all i see is the best candidate. And if it's the other guy, then so be it. If it is Obama then so be it.

Answer 3

That isn't the issue. We are glad to have a person, not a shyster Lawyer and oil man running for office.

Answer 4

Maybe it will shut up Jackson and Sharpton for once but i suppose he isnt black enough for them

Answer 5

First of, neither of them are racist. Then how is Condaleeza Rice the secretary of the USA under Republican rule?

Its only the people who vote should think before they vote. Some ignorant people dont need thinking as they dont want to have a black president.

But that doesnt mean every white person who doesnt vote for Obama is racist.

98% blacks vote Obama because they feel more secure considering theyve faced far more racism in the past than any other race on the whole planet.

I see Ive  been voted down by ignorant individuals because ive stated the true facts....

Answer 6

It is not important.

Only a racist would vote for Obama because he is black.
