Gman hit the nail on the head with that answer. The majority of the population decides and don't want someone who is marching with one crowd to one kind of tune.
Never had a female President in the U.S. either, Condalisa Rice I think has had the toughest position in the most challenging period in U.S. History for a man or a woman but you probably won't see her on the ballot.
She's African American and a Woman it may or may not be a deciding factor for voters.
Maybe she doesn't want the job like Collin Powell didn't. I think either one of them would be a great President, they have the experience, they are fair and not swaying way to one side or the other.
Other countries have non-Caucasian, and female Presidents or Leaders, is it race, or gender that matters the most or is it experience and a true concern for the future of the country and the world?

The biggest problem with a minority candidate is that he has to appeal to the majority of voters, most of whom are white. The reason that Jesse Jackson never had a chance is that he never appealed to the huge white majority. He tended to be a "black" leader instead of leader who is black. Many felt that Colin Powell would've been a good president because he had wide variety of support among all the race in America. The same can be said of Obama.

Living in a movie fantasy world, aren't ya. You about 12 to 14 yrs old? You need to grow up and learn the difference in a movie and real life. Guess that is just a wish, you have a screw loose in your head, and it want never change, you are a screw ball for life.
