I can't pretend to know exactly what things are like in the South. I have never lived there. I have lived in Los Angeles my whole life.
I'm sure every state is a little different and race may play more of a role in certain states, but overall I think everyone has a fair shake right now in the US.
I have a question for you. Do you think being half-black helped Obama or hurt him? All things being the same, do you think he would have gotten more votes or less votes if he was white?
