I don’t agree entirely with your view. While I think it may take more time before a black runs again, I think that no matter who runs in future, the background will be given more vetting. There was a ton of info out there on 0bama and most of us here tried to warn others who this guy is but they did not listen. I hope to high heaven they learned and that understand they need to get beyond the D or the R and look closely at the person, what he/she stands for, what has been written by his or her own hand and said ( bet there will be lots of youtube) and that a great deal of attention will be paid to those with whom the candidate associates. Had the media ( apart from FOX) done this, rather than being the shills for this disaster in office, perahps we would not be in the position we find ourselves. The one bright lining is at last people are waking up and the people in Congress are getting a long overdue earful that they work of US and are using OUR money and WE pay their salaries...and we are NOT going to take lip from them..the high horses they have sat their big rumps upon have been made lame.
I doubt that if the candidate fits the media's objective like Hussein did. They knew everything...maybe more....than we did and they knew it earlier and they not only didn't report it, they suppressed it. They haven't. They are doing the same thing about cap and trade and healthcare.
