Obama and Hillary alleviate claims of non-acceptance and non-opportunity for minorities. It was very evident in one of Obama's speeches that he did not want to blame hispanics for blacks losing their jobs. After these democratic primaries and caucuses, it is more evident than ever before that America is still the country with opportunities for all if you want to take personal responsibility. Both minorities, Hillary and Obama, each gather as many votes as the Republicans combined in a country where for years the black caucuses wanted people to believe that minorities are discriminated upon.
It is amazing, if you act American, whether you are liberal or conservative, how accepted you are. I think more blacks will have to join the ranks of Bill Cosby in taking responsibility for their own destiny and not be looking for somebody to blame for their situation. Though welfare and governmental give-a-ways have smothered the drive and incentives to be independent and self-providing, the demand for labor by closing the borders and reforming the welfare system can change generations of dependents into opportunities for those that want it. If you believe opportunities have passed you by, you should seriously look at yourself and ask yourself why.
