Do You Think We Will Ever See an End to Racism and Discrimination?

that's certainly not my experience. I grew up in the 50's in Richmond, Ca and saw one neighborhood after another turn from all white to about 80% black because of white flight. I didn't see blacks separating themselves, I saw whites who left for no reason other than a black family moved in near them.

That may be part of it, but I think a whole bunch of racism in the US continues because there are certain people here who still can't believe the south lost the Civil War

He would not be President if only whites were voting, that's for sure.

2008 55% of whites voted for McCain vs 43% for Obama
2012 59% of whites voted for Romney vs 39% for Obama
