U people are incredibly stupid. Obama's hallow rhetoric does not equate to prgressive policy articulation. He has already indicated that he will persue all of his predecessor's central policies. That is, military aggression abroad and austerity at home and handing over trillions of public wealth to Wall Street. Obama is a product of the Democratic Party corrupt political machinery. The party that Martin Luther King called a 'representative of the supine liberals'. He is the president because white corporate America, who bankrolled his campaign, have allowed him to be. They know that he will not change the conditions of the vast majority of African Americans who live in poverty in the ghettos, and filling up the prisons. Why do you think Dick Cheney has been praising Obama's cabinet selections. Perhaps good old Dick KNOWS something that the cheering squad doesn't. Obama will make you simpletons feel fuzzy in your stomachs because he is black and talks about hope. He will certainly manage to sell the agenda of the American ruling oligarchs more skilfully than the beligerent Bush. His administration will not be informed by media- image construction but by the interests he represents. One thing that has been of benefit from this Obama hysteria, has been an understanding of how religion works. Before calling Malema an idiot, another fashionable exercise fostered and facilitated by what Mbeki called a colonial media, have a look in the mirror.
