I dunno if Obama will win the nomination, and frankly, I don't care too much. I am just impressed by how far USA has come as a nation. Iowa is a lily white state - 95percent. I have looked at their population stats - in some of those counties, there are maybe 2 black families. Most of the people of color there are students. Obama has accomplished the impossible. Unbelievable. And it shows the willingness of this generation to look beyond color and listen to ideas.

That is the real achievement in this matter.

@Samira's post:
I just shake my head at black people who want a black candidate to be "their candidate." Black people make up less than 20percent of the American population. How are you going to make a serious attempt at the white house by talking only about civil rights and welfare? Are those the only issues facing Americans (as a whole)?

Sidney, you are totally right. Real crabs in a dirty bucket.
Obama, go on soun ojare.

p.s Samira, I am not picking on you o, just commenting on the comment you posted by that african american individual wey no get too much sense.
