Yes, I would have to say in the big scheme of things- of course! We have someone who on the outside represents us in the highest position in the country, but we cannot forget his insides are very biracial. As much as Obama being elected to the presidency is a sign of progress, before being elected he was often referred to by media tycoons as half black but once elected he is more referred to as half white. As if to remind everyone as to why he might have been elected by people who wouldn’t normally vote in favor of the minority. Let us always keep it real. Obama was allowed to win by the powers that be that really run the United States of America. But we cannot miss this chance while we(people of color) are in season to seize every opportunity that Obama being president brings that we might not have had before.
