David Kleis IV
Chapter four has made me realize how serious racism is still in our country. During the last Presidential election Barack Obama was constantly being ridiculed because he was half black. Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin were both be singled out because they were women. Our country claims that we are the land of the free and everyone here is equal, but clearly this is not the case. The color of you skin should not matter at all anymore in the twenty-first century. Barack Obama has been doing a fine job. It just makes me disgusted that this country wants to be run by old white guys. It's just more of the same. I feel that Barack Obama handled the election well and dealt with the racial tension.
