Barack Obama for President?

He is popular, not just in America, but around the world. Around the world that even countries like China where no one cared about who wins the American presidential election. So he is truly popular.

His ethnic background dictates he is from a minority group -- black/Latin American. Now if he is elected, the world will have minority president leading the majority, majority -- the class that still dominates America today. How does Obama cement the support from his minority while blast any doubt coming from the majority to retain in the post? It is likely he will introduce some "radical" policies, not too extreme, but still radical enough to touch every American. He is likely to be stiff towards the developing countries who are not subject to the rein of the might U.S. too, China included. Likely to be stiffer than W. Bush as he needs that more than Bush to seal the mouth of Republicans.

It is more unlikely than not Barack Obama will change anything how Ameica is run and rules over the world, not in this short term of four years.
