"One advantage of having Obama as a President is we will no longer have to put up with Europeans reflexively and self-righteously denouncing us as racist. It will also be humbling for political personalities and movements in this country building their careers by attacking every policy they don't like as being racist. And I'm sick and tired of the shibboleth of rich, old, white men running everything, too. Of course, we will also be in the position of having anything that goes wrong on his watch blamed on his race."

Which of his "race" will they blame? The white or the black?

I agree, that it will make the Europeans slightly happier, because they have a distorted image of America. I also think it could make American blacks and whites slighter happier because they also have a distorted image of America. What it could do is disrupt a image created by propaganda.
