Poll question: Is America ready for a black president?
Remember how many articles were posted with this title before the election? OMG... I was sick of it.

Is America ready for a black president?

Maybe not ...

The way Michael Lewis-Beck sees it, the numbers don't add up.

"There is a significant group of people who just won't vote for a black candidate. Period," he said.

1. Other: Is America Ready for a Biracial President?
Grandma and Grampa's heartwarming tale of sacrifice in raising the future President wasn't for nuthin', and probably helped turn out some of the Retirement Village vote.

have to wonder what % of America actually was ready for a black President.
