Barak has other more significant issues to overcome before he is elected, or
even gets the nomination.
First, he is a northerner, he will have some difficulty in the south and
even more difficulty there because he is black.
But he's about as unblack as you can get and still have dark skin.
He grew up with his white mother, in Indonesia. He's never lived in
the south or the "inner city".
His dad was an African-African, not African-American. He doesn't have
the legacy of slavery or the chip on the shoulder.
Bill Clinton is more black than Barack Obama. I guess
African-Americans have claimed him, but I wonder if they would prefer
Hillary.
