How would you feel about a black president, and be honest, I bet you all would say that you would feel very comfortable with one, but in your minds you have doubts. I say that I would feel okay with one, but how would others?

not gunna happen for a long time, but I really don't care what the color of their skin is. If they are smart and have good plans, I'll vote for them, no matter what party they are in.

I don't think there are any blacks qualified to be president. Additionally, I don't believe that any will be qualified for quite awhile. So I don't think I would vote for one.

What about current black top dog Colin Powel? He has quite an impressive resume if a little short on traditional political experiance. I say traditional because there is nothing non political about being chairman of the JCS. His view fall a bit out of traditional republican idealogy though making it hard for him to get the nomination if he decided to run but it could provide the kick that the complacent Republican leadership needs.

I'm not sure if Colin Powell would be elected, but if it were Powell versus Kerry, you know where my vote would be... with Powell. Even though I am mroe libereal than the mainstream democrat, I still think that Powell is a good man (with the exception of a few Bush related blemishes), and frankly, I'd rather have a good man be president who buts heads with me than a president I slightly agree with.

I wouldn't care. If a black man that was a good man and was right on issues ran, I would elect him, like I would elect a woman, etc. I certainly wouldn't vote for them just because they're black though.

Hey, as long as he'd make a good president, and as long as he's either a democrat or some sort of moderate ;o

Al Sharpton is a very good speaker, I don't know why he did so bad during the primaries. Not that many people watched the debates though :P

I wouldn't mind a black Prime Minister for England. I wouldn't mind a woman Prime Minister. I wouldn't mind a Prime Minister who was a homosexual one-legged obese Irishman with a limp, severe burn scars and a speech impediment.

As long as I agree with their policies.

I would have liked to see Alan Keyes as the RNC's 2000 pick if George didn't make it.

He is such a great orator. He gets to his point succintly and you have a smile on your face when he's made it. Great man, I would vote for him in a heartbeat.

The only reason I'd vote against him is because I don't like his policies. Hooray for prospective voting!

Did I inspire you? I'll take the job; I hate America

Bum, you love me. Too bad you can't vote, n00bz0r!

how can u be so pompous to think you know enough "blacks" make the claim that no of them are qualified to be prez. i know plenty of people qualified to president but because of their situation the never have cahnce to run. Especialy since it takes millions of dollars to run a campain

Nelson Mandela in 04! But seriously, I think a president of any minority would be fine as long as they're qualified. Then again, it appears you don't have to be all that qualified to run. I mean look at the incumbent and his main challenger, it's sad. I know people with more political prowee in their little finger than Kerry has in his entire chin. And Bush, come on, the guy proves my point without me having to say anything. If any black people with good ideas want to come forward, I'll vote for them in a heartbeat, anything is better than what I'm having to choose between.


Think you're pretty clever...

Why not? Some world leader doesn't comply, s/he puts a cap in their ass. I've noticed alot of people thinking it would be a bad idea. Why we bleed the same blood and breath the same air. We are all kind of the same, why let color change that?

I never said I knew enough blacks to know whether they are qualified or not. But the tv clearly shows that they are the ones who commit violent crime, do drugs, and become prostitutes. They also suck off the government.

What kind of a president would that make? A very poor one.

*sigh* People should not even look at the color of the skin, the race or whatever that makes them different then the white Western civilisation...

Just look at the things he or she is good or not good at, don't vote or notvote for him or her because she's black, gay, whatever, that's stupid.

We may have a minority prez sooner than we think we will. The Census says that at the rate we are going, in like 2008 or something, Whites are no longer going to be a majority in this country. As in the US population will be less than 50% white. so, sooner than later, whites are going to be the "minority"
