During the 2008 elections for the first time in history people were torn between voting for a black or white candidate running for office. Obama, Clinton, McCain were running for the Presidency of the United States. The ideology is based on power which in the history of the United States we have only had "White" presidents.
While the 2008 Presidential election was being televised, I watched it along with other students in Maucker Union hosted by the Black Males Leaders Union. I can clearly recall the joy, the cheers, and the tears as President Obama named was called out as the elected winner.
