Do you think Barack Obama would be assasinated if elected president?

It's a sad thing to think about, because I believe he is a great and passionate man, but the fact is race will for some reason always matter to some people, and racism will seemingly always be a problem. I'd hate to see it being taken too far, but I feel some people really are that against having an African American president. Do you think he is at a greater risk for this sort of action than the other candidates?

I agree with you, it is really sad but I beleive that will be the out come for both Hilary, or Barack, the fact is, is that most of our country is not ready for change, for a women or a African American to be President would be changing history and there are selfish people who want to be a part of that history, no matter who it hurts they want their name in history, and what is funny is that they think they stand for something but they are just holding us back, with their old thinking

exactly! And people don't understand that when they do something like this, they might be getting their name in the history books but they are weakening the structure of an entire nation. Look what happened with Kennedy, he was probably the greatest president who ever lived and one man destroyed an entire nation with one single bullet. Sure, it's empowering that one single man can alter an entire country that way, but the harm and despair being caused is nothing to be proud of...
