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.

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

Sure, the U.S. is ready for a black president, if he's qualified.
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.
