President Obama didn't run as the President of Black America. He ran for the position of President of the United States. His resposability is equal to all Americans irrespective of their ethnic heritage. If certain Americans of African heritage chose to vote for him out of ethnic pride as did certain Americans of European heritage because they thought having an African American President would be good for America, it was their personal right to do so. It should have no afect on how he conducts himself. It is quite easy for those of us who are right of center to suggest to the President that the solution to all his problems is to adopt our policies. This is in actuality promoting deceit. What we should be demanding is a recognition of the other and respect for Republicans that has not been forthcoming until now.
