Electoral Politics and Party Identity

I do not believe that Barrack Obama being elected into office has changed the perceived need for an independent third party. Although the party’s stance has altered over time, his beliefs still coincide with the general beliefs of the Democratic Party. I believe a black independent third party would further divide our country, and possibly increase racial tension politically. The fact Barrack Obama was elected to office proves that our Nation has made progress and that a Black independent party is not necessary.
