Clo,
You are SO naive!!! It's not that Obama's black that's effecting how HE's doing HIS job, it's the fact that he's black that the Right and the Tea Baggers have made it their life's work to see him fail at any cost, even up to and including crashing the economy. You can't honestly tell me that if his father had been from Ireland and his name was O'Bama that he would have been treated like he has been. In the minds of the Right, if Obama succeeds (and for them that includes simply being reelected) it will put a lie to over 150 years of crap that they have been telling their kids and they are unwilling to let that happen.
Anyway, that's my humble opinion.
