I agree, the problem we have here in south Africa is is, now that we have a black president and mostly black "cabinet" you see a lot of enrichment of just the eleet instead of the black working class that have been promise heaven and who knows what.

I'm not sure America is quite ready for a black president. You only have to look at how they let black people die in Hurricane Katrina.
If they do have a black president, it won't be a descendant of a slave, because that would make the white population feel guilty. It will be someone like Barak Obama, a descendant of a free African from Kenya.
I think that Barack Obama has a good chance of becoming vice president to Hilary Clinton, and then he may run for president in 2012.

I personally think a black president would be fine. I will vote for the canidate I think is best for president not considering their race. If I were to pick a black person for president I would pick Collin Powell. I realize he is not running; however, I think he is great. My husband and I had the pleasure of hearing him speak once. He is great.
