Rep Power: 71   | Could a black man be President (or leader) of your country? I'm from the United States as you all know, and all I have to say is.. Hell no! a black man couldn't be president. As much as we think racism is down, it's not what it once was... believe me it's still there. We aren't out trying to hang blacks anymore, but we do feel uncomfortable being around them. We do. If they are walking behind you, you walk faster. If they are in the same elevator you watch your wallet. I'm not saying everyone does this, but it happens.. it happens all the time. Little subtle things that you don't really think much of. People would say that they would vote for the black man, but when they get to the election site will they REALLY pull the trigger on that? I don't think so. | |

Rep Power: 4 | No, although racism is down, the U.S. future presidents will always be middle-classes white man...like Kerwin White...sure, maybe one day a Black man will be president, or maybe even a WOMAN...but that may not be for a while...Cuz if you think about it, there are a lot more white people than Black people and they outnumber them in votes...plus, Black people are sterotyped as "gangstas, uneducated, poor, etc"...even though a Black man will be wearing a suit, in the back of peoples mind they would see an image of a "hood" and wouldn't want "gangstas" runnin this country...although some people don't wanna believe it, oh its true, its damn true... | |

Rep Power: 24 | What about if it was like Michael Jordan, or LeBron James? I think that would be the best chance of having a black president. I would say Canada is liberal enough to vote for a black prime minister, but there aren't any black people in Canada. | |

Rep Power: 4 | I can't believe Kanye said on national TV that "George Bush does not care about Black people"...Did anyone see Chris Tucker's blank expression after they cut to him? That was pretty funny... | |

Rep Power: 55 | I think Colin Powell has a very strong chance for getting the Republican nomination in 2008. | |
