Obama For President
The majority of people vote for a person by a type of party they are representing such as democratic or republican. Obama is attempting to run. do you think America will over look what party he is from and racial standards will take place?
I think that he's going to be judged for his race, at least for the most part. I've had someone come up to me and tell me to vote for Hilary Clinton, just because she's a woman. That's exactly what I think will happen with Obama.
Because he is African-America there will be voters that will just vote for him because of that and people who will not vote for him because of his race. But alot of people do the same thing based on political parties. They will vote for someone just because of their party without really looking at the issues. But I think the his race will be more of an issue than his party.+

There are, of course, people who vote for white people because they are white, too.
