I think we should have a black leader it would be better than a white especially Donald trump the reason why I say this is because the black person that would be our leader can relate to us because he or she has been through what we have been through and that would be good for that person to know because they would already know what to do while they are in the seat that’s why we should have a black leader instead of a white one.
I don’t think we should have a white leader because he can only relate to their own kind and not ours also they don’t know what we go through except black people and I know trump can’t relate to us if a black person can be our leader that would be great because she of he knows what we have gone through and she/he is intelligent so he/she knows what to do even more I don’t know but I know one thing is that we need someone who’s ready for the job and consequences and when the time has come.

A leader is someone that puts everyone before themselves and tries their problems like Malcolm x or like martin Luther king a leader is what we need to get what we want in life the reason why I say this is because nowadays some people are misguided and end up going with white people.
For many years, American Presidents were viewed as being white and powerful leaders. Why were they only white? Is it because Americans felt Blacks were not smart enough to run a country on their own? African Americans were viewed as less dominate people and have been discriminated because of the color of their skin. In 2008, Barack Obama was elected President of the United States making him the first black president ever. In this paper, I will discuss how Barack makes a change and if America can accept him as our first black president.
A leader is someone who will step up in the times of crisis and is able to think and act creatively in a difficult situation according to businessdictionary.com. A leader can also inspire others to be engage and to work together to achieve a common goal.
Leadership is action,not a position”(Donald H. McGannon 1).On November 4, 2008, senator Barack Obama was elected as the first African-American of the United States of America. It was then on that he would lead the country for two terms and finally leave his legacy in 2017.Barack obama impacted most of the american peoples lives in a positive way like when he created more jobs. During the“ course of Obama’s two terms of presidency, he has shown multiple times through his actions on why he is such a great president.,Such as providing health care for the poor and helping the economy.For instance, obama averted an economic collapse.
President Barack Obama personality is one of a kind. Many people believes that there won’t be an another black president. Coates mentions “This would not happen again, and
By definition a leader is a person who leads or commands a group however, I believe a leader should be a person who inspires his team excel in the worst of conditions. A leader should be extraordinary reliable as the team should know that the leader could guide them to the best of his abilities toward their goal. A leader should be persistent as they should be the motivational force leading the group. A leader should be patient and calm knowing that quality takes time and that the individual member of his team have obstacles to overcome on their own part.
The history of the United States proves that there has continuously been a Caucasian man as president in this country. This lack of change left people wondering, if anyone that wasn’t a Caucasian man would ever be elected as president. Due to this, children as well as adults didn’t believe that an African American would ever become president. This was especially true for young African American children. In the United States, it is said in the constitution if you are a natural born citizen of the United States and have the experience needed that anyone
Finally, Ta-Nehisi Coates shows his support for this claim in his article “The First White President.” In this article Coates discusses how minorities, such as African Americans, have always been outsiders because of society’s racism, but with President Trump they lost all hope of becoming insiders. Before, with Obama as president, minorities had some hope of becoming insiders, “Barack Obama delivered to black people the hoary message that if the work twice as hard as white people anything is possible” which gave light to the possibility of change, but with a different society in charge, all minorities were now more outsiders than before (Coates). This is not a new division, for African American people have always been pushed to the outside.
The dictionary defines a leader as “the person who leads or commands a group, organization, or country.” It takes a great leader to make a country run smoothly, properly and have it be as successful as possible. Abraham Lincoln was that great leader, he was able to command respect, think rationally about all decisions and lead his nation to great heights in the mist of such a terrible tragedy. Unfortunately the south did have such a leader to run their country in the time of the Civil War. Jefferson Davis was an inept leader that sealed doom for his nation in the most important war of all time for the confederacy. Although he was very
A Black president should be judged with lower expectations than any other president. America honestly and truly will never have a Black president because the United States of America is predominately White. If the president is representing the United States of America the interest and needs of White people will always be addressed and catered to. Black Americans have overwhelmingly given their support to President Barack Obama in both of his presidential election. But Black Americans have been falling further behind while President Obama has been in office. According to statistics the “The national unemployment rate has dropped to 7 percent, but the jobless rate for blacks has hardly moved since Obama took office, declining from 12.7 percent

Has the black community ever had a black leader or leaders? In 2015 I feel the black community needs leaders to guide us to a higher place in society in the 2nd millennium. But first the black community need to understand what a true leader is and how to embrace a true leader. Also The Black community has to understand what previous leaders have done for us in the past to continue to push the envelope further for us to have opportunities we have now. 2015 is the year we try to get a council of new leaders to help the black community in areas we are lacking due the fact we are not being well represented in politics and economics.
Some presidents make very bad choices. I think that they should be a good leader, nice/respectful, honest, and equal to all races because if they follow these things than the country will run smoothly. The country should be able to trust, respect, and they should be able to be trusted when it comes to our safety of our country.
Name another black president that can be like Obama or better. Oh yeah Obama is the only black president Americas first in history. Obama not only chased his dream. But he truly showed Africa Americans can do anything just believe. No one was expecting a black president. People didn’t think he’d win he proved them wrong.
First, the prejudice and the stereotype about racism have broken. Now, The world doesn 't discriminate the African-American as their race, but the world evaluates an their personal ability. Therefore, it is a one of the factors that Barak Obama could be the first African-American president. Actually, according to the result of a ballot counting, 48% of American, 66% of Latino and 98% of African-Americans advocated Barak Obama. It seems that there are no racism about African-American in the U.S anymore. Like this, As you can see the example of Barak Obama, it can 't prevent her to be a president in the U.S just because someone is a woman.
