I was very worried something would happen to him during the election, especially when he walked around random neighborhoods where the Secret Service only had so much control over his protection. Now, he doesn't have to do that, so I feel a little better, but this country has the unfortunate track record of its inspirational leaders getting killed.

But I don't think race is the only thing Obama has to deal with. I've been checking out comments on my local newspaper's website, and about half the commentors think he's a secret Arab Muslim terrorist/Marxist-socialist/future Hitler. It's not just his race that's playing a factor.
