Let's say Obama does win.
I'm curious...what would his victory mean for the 'race' discussion in America?
A few possibilities come to mind:
1. "ok, now that an African-American has been elected President, it's clear that America isn't a racist country, so let's move on..."
2. 'this is a good first step and the 'glass ceiling' has been broken, but there is more work to be done.'
3. 'Now race will get the attention it deserves..."
I'm just throwing out ideas here. Just wondering how it will be interpreted.
