Entry: "The Way The World Looks" Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/the_way_the_world_looks#26151 Post contents: Obama is black. So there will be a different perception. Since America hasn't had an unblemished president ever, it's not hard to imagine how he will be pilloried because he is black when he stumbles. Despite this Americans who are supporting him, as a whole, seem to have an IQ higher than the average and probably understand this. And he is the frontrunner, so maybe he's just better than the two other options - it isn't as if there is really a lot of choice now. But the most important thing is not what the Obama supporters think he will do or that Obama will himself change the world, rather that the world will see that Americans are willing to elect a man of mixed race. Their view of Americans will change - and it will be a vast change from the image they have after Bush. Sent at: 2008 10 13
