Obama raised notions of possibilities because all countries share the burden of racism, exclusivity and entitlement...

King, maybe a closer look. I notice many references to 'colour', but not character which is the point I brought up. Again, it seems to me that racism is your focal point, not what the man has done or could do to improve the situation. Does disappointment mean he has worsened racial tensions, but you're bound by pc etiquette to sugar coat.
