Eyes on the Pride
By Dick Meyer
This article is quite the opposite from the previous article, "Does Race Really Matter?" Meyer focuses completely on the race issue and believes that it is essential for Democrats to accept that they have an African-American running for president. He calls the Democratic party 'sneaky,' and not exactly proud to possibly be making history. The rest of the country should be proud as well. Meyer also tells us that is Obama were white, this election would be based on the unpopularity of John McCain. All of Obama's television advertisements are forced on letting the public know that the Democratic party cares about them all individually, when, as Meyer believes, there is not one voter out there that5 possibly believes that such a large corporation cares about them all individually. Those advertisements need to focus on that fact that Obama could make history and give voters a solid cause to embrace this monumental event.
Reading this makes me want to afree with Meyer. He is a very powerful writer and can support anything he talks about. The realization is that Obama is not white. I, personally, do not understand racism. I can see through all that, but I know most everyone out there cannot. The only way to overcome that is to make it known, and like Meyer said, the Democratic party should not be nonchalant about anything involving something so important.
