Racism always exists in every country all over the world. It is also a big problem for the United States' election 2008 because this is the first time Democrat party choose Mr. Barack Obama, the black president nominee.
There are many opinions of people over the world about this problem, especially British. Jonathan Foreman, managing editor of StandpointOnline of UK, argues with some British commentators such as historian Tristram Hunt,... about the question race and America on Leader of the Pack. He partially agrees that pretty rich coming from a country which is decades away from offering blacks and other minorities the kind of opportunities available in the U.S. It is indeed significant that we Americans have an extremely popular black candidate for president. However, he persuades us by showing a lot of black people work in U.S government like black Supreme Court justices, Thurgood Marshall in 1967; CEOs of major corporations, like American Express’s Kenneth Chenault. He also that convinces that Britain has had many Cabinet members, example the U.S. Air Force’s Gen. B.O. Davis Jr being appointed in 1954. He gives the comment that America’s record on race deserves less condescension and a lot more respect from Britons and Europeans.
I agree with him that we have had alot of black people in our government in the past and now. Maybe the black man in a racist America is beginning to change. In my own opinion, we should respect the black people who are really talent and honor. I and somebody have ever thought that we did not respect the black people because we used to see they were bad on the news such as cruel acts or violences; not their skin. So I hope that Mr. Obama will be a good president if he win this election because he is talent and good educated. However, we can not omit the racial discrimination inside of everyone. We know clearly the discrimination between North and South people still exists in every country, so the racial discrimination between black and other color is the bigger problem that affects thinking of people, especially its effect on voting this time.
