Title: Is USA ready for a Black President??
Post by: Eidolon_Ravi on September 11, 2003, 03:11:11 AM

 Going thru all these theads on racism and all I am happy to find that everyone is so damn against any form of racism... and *almost* everyone want to root out this evil...

 So here comes the million dollar question:

 *Are the citizens of the USA ready discharge their duties under a Black President??*

If he is the best man qualified, why not. Hell, the Republicans want Collin Powell to run, because he has shown great leadership, can command the army well, and we use him to talk with other nations. He would be a great president, IMO, and I'm a Democrat. Others that would be good in history, Martin Luther King Jr. (sad he died at a very young age in a political life), Booker T Washingting and Frederick Douglas. I know there are many other Black leaders that would have made great presidents. It's the United States though that would never let it happen.

The best man/woman qualified deserves the presidency; however, I don't think the entire country feels the same way. I'll state that if Hillary Clinton ran, she'd get my vote in an instant.
7even why do you say it doesn't make any sense for a black person to be the president of this nation? This country is composed of so many different ethnicities, cultures, and religions, and most of these had ancestors here centuries ago. Why don't they have as much of a right as "whites", since they too are AMERICAN?

If there is going to be a black president then they would have to be better then Al Sharpton becuase Shapton would have no idea on what to do if he is elected president.

I dont see a real sense in it, cause where is the sense in having a black 'president' in Sweden, or a White 'president' in africa? may sound stupid, but since the majority in america (especially if you just count the wealthier ppl, who lead the country more or less) is white, I dont know why there should be a black president.

im amazed by your stupidness and ignorance..

first off:

Sweden have no president, we have a KING
Africa is not a country, it’s a continent, you can not generalize the entire continent

Less than 1% of the population in Sweden is black,… how many % in USA is black?.. 15-25%

lol, you know what those thingys mean? """"""""

I made em cause I wanted ta say president instead of king n shit, to make it more visual for people. I didnt expect such a stupid and ignorant answer ... suprised me!

I know sweden has less black ppl than america (was brand new news man) but still, there are simply less blacks than whites, like I said.

so what the fuck was you comment supposed to mean? its like correcting my grammer, just pointless bullshittin...

Nah not nearly that much, i think last count was like 12%.

Amerikkka is not ready for a Black President nor a Female one. Not all people, but a good amount are still ignorant. I'd like to see Reverend Al Sharpton get in, he's a good man.

 Isn't a person's character based on his integrity or is it baised by his race??
 
 It's high time americans stop thinking about the numbers and give everyone a fair chance...
  else ppl. will start thinking that  *SPIN DOCTORS* control the entrances and exits of the White House too...
 
 Just as in Gr8 Britain...

So every nation, state, city, or whatever...should have a leader who is from the "majority" race and sex? Thats ridiculous. So the US should have a white woman president then right? According to yur argument. As a matter of fact, probably most of the worlds leaders should be women then....according to yur argument.

As for tha topic, i dont think the country is "ready" for a Black President. I think it could be a good thing for the advancement of ALL people (not just white males) in this country, BUT...i dont see it happening anytime soon. Like someone else said, theres still enough ignorant people that wouldnt vote for someone...solely based on the fact that they are Black, Hispanic, Female, etc.

it works the other way too, there are people ignorant to vote IN a person solely based on his race.........how is it that davis is being recalled as governor and Bustamante leading the polls? lol it ain't cuz of his policies i'll tell you that....lol

thats true...

but i still side with those who have had nothing, as opposed to those who have it all. I mean, not that it makes it RIGHT. But i understand it. We've never ONCE had anything other then a white...male...president. And a majority of politicians in any office, are white males. So i understand how those, who do not get represented correctly in office....would vote to have one of their own, to represent them. To me its human nature.

I respect everyone's opinion here, even if its not the same as mine, but 7even has got to be the dumbest person to make a comment.  "It doesn't make any sense for there to be a black president because whites are the majority".......... :o How fuckin ignorant is that. We're in the 21st century, and at that we're talking about the United States, the most ethnically diverse country. How does the president being black affect the white people as long as he's a good president, and can do the job better than the next person?

In the U.S. the leader of an organization is not always the same race as the majority of its members. 7even if you have nothing smart to add, then don't add anything. You're an idiot.

Lets analyze this from another view. Lets say that 10% are black and 10% are Hispanic and 80% are white. That would mean that among 10 presidents, 1/10 of the should be black and 1/10 of them should be hispanic.

Obviously, that’s not the case.

Sometimes I wonder if the country would be different if there was a female president.  Females think differently, it probably would translate over into the office.  I'll bet things would be different.  I dunno about better or worse, just different.
