Can A 100% Black Man Be President Of The Usa? by ugborikoko(m): 10:15am On Nov 07, 2008
I believe original African American (those whose ancestors are completely black)  have taken the race argument to the extreme. Many of them hold that blacks are better than whites from their attitude towards White people . The fact is blacks and whites are equal before the creator. These African Americans need to understand that they live in the United States of America and not the "United States of Black America".

One reason Barack Obama won was due to his ability to project  America as a multiracial country which can be united towrads a common cause - i suspect this is so because he is a multiracial guy and so owes his white side as much as he owes his Black. If African Americans with complete black ancestors hope to to rule USA in future, they must drop this black activism spirit and embrace activism for the common good of black and white and everything between.

Long live the United World!
