What difference does Obama's skin color really make - every four years in this country a president is sworn into office - let go of race and Obama is just another man we put into the white house. Everyone talks about equal rights and stopping prejudice but here you all are keeping race in the lime light. Even Obama himself pushed prejudice right into front and center with his inauguration speech. We are all AMERICANS - the color of Obama's skin doesn't make him president.
