I have heard on several news programs that Obama’s success is due, in part, because he is viewed as the “anti Al Sharpton.” The news programs suggested that Obama is popular among many white Americans simply because he promises to keep the issues of race and discrimination out of the forefronts of their minds. Unlike Sharpton, who some say is a rebel rouser and only focuses on racial inequality, Obama tends to focus on other things and as a result is accepted by many whites. What do you think? Are these news program correct?
