RobSheffield Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Probably. Dont see how the colour if his skin *should* effect it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I would like to say yes but I fear that some radical redneck morons might do something very stupid. I think a non white vice president would be a better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Link to artical on th BBC Link I think this is probably a good time for it to happen. Discuss (if you like ) Why exactly do you think it's 'a good time for it to happen'? It's no good having an opinion if you don't back it up with reasoning.

VELOCITY Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I am not sure on this one, in a way skin colour should not come into it and my personel opinion is that most of the country do not care as long as the president is patriotic and good at running the country. A lot of the TV shows now show a black president anyway and dont think it phased anybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imi Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Depends though If its Denzel Washington or Will Smith then yes On a serious note If its someone intelligent like Colin Powell that is really patriotic and speaks his mind then no; if its a puppet like bush then why not.

Stevie Boy Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I'd feel sorry for him that's for sure, with the potential prejudices to deal with he'll also have some horrendous international "war on terror" disaster issues to take over. Be like turning up for first day of work as a milkman but being presented with an empty milk float, 300 cows, 2000 empty bottles and a pair of gloves......... where dy'a start????

jamesmark Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 Its a tough choice, a black man or a white woman, whats the lesser of two evils for the US electorate?! It is going to be a test on Equal opportunities, It should not matter if the person is white, black, brown, yellow, male or female, however that is easily said.

Rob Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 It's the american dream that anyone can succeed to be President, but in reality I think there are too many conservatives and right wing voters for it to happen yet. I hope he does get in though, if only to shut Morrissey up. Has anyone been childish enough yet to comment that his name is quite similar to Osama? Good, then I'm first. He'll get some flack from the press for that I'll bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Mac Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I couldn't care less what colour his skin is, although I think it can't help being an issue in the Hollywood style Election Campaigns modern politicians in America seem to have. I'm more interested in the fact he seems to have a functioning brain, unlike the current chimp that's notionally in charge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I hope he does get in though, if only to shut Morrissey up. He'll only moan about something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jspec Germany Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 He's not ready yet, but he's one of the few that will compete with dare I say her name.... the former president Clinton. Either way, the country's hosed if a Democrat wins. Lets hope some other candidates present themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
