Why must everyone be putting so much credence in the color of his skin (Black & White alike)? He fought a good race & won and should be judged on his accomplishments not his race.
Totally agree, I am really hoping he does a great job and I know he is a smart guy, I just hope he changes his stance on abortion, that is the only real point that I totally disagree with him on, my opinion is 8 months is way too late, wish he felt the same. I too don't think we should make a huge deal of him being black, but at the same time 95% of black voters voted for him, so it did play a role whether we believe it or not. Great election and I am excited to see what is in the future for the US, but I do not personally think the President has too much power in the grand scheme of things. And yeah I think as a whole everyone on VX.info does a good job of respecting each others views and not judging each other, but rather make jokes out of everything and everyone at every opportunity. It is all good VX brothers and sisters, lol.
