I prefer not to think along those lines. Yes, Obama was a terrible president. Likely the worst ever. But let that not be a reflection on black people in general. I have nothing against a black president but this was obviously an awful, awful choice to be the first one.
Same with a woman president. Would love to see that someday but let it be a good woman. Hillary was obviously another awful choice and I'm glad the American people had the good sense to reject her.
I'm so sick and tired of this identity politics that the Left has shoved down our throat. Why do all our presidents suddenly have to be the first of something? If Bruce Jenner wasn't a Republican, they'd be pushing him to be the "first transvestite" president even though he doesn't have a single qualification for the job.
I agree with you on the color/gender issue. If Dr. Carson or Sarah Palin had been elected to the presidency we would have considered it to be a win for the country not a win for inclusion politics.
