Is there a real danger of assasination? Ok the 2 numpties in jail at the moment where not a serious threat but do you think there are a lot of rednecks out there who won't want a black president? Does anyone know what happens if a president elect dies before taking office?

i would think there is a very real danger of him being killed if not by a white supremesist then by a black supremesist
either way a race war in the usa will play right into the hands of many many many people

I sincerely hope it doesn't happen, but I think there's a good chance of a serious attempt within the first year of his presidency.

I can only agree with what johnny.5 has written.

I truly hope it doesn't happen, but it wouldn't surprise me if it did. I agree completely with the previous two posts.

He is not Black, he is half-Black half-White, and that has to be the best, I welcome it. He is a committed Christian, even better. let us now see how he tackles the terrorist threat to the Western world.

about 100million Yanks still think he is an "arab"! Clint eastwood/Dennis Quaid etc will have a job protecting him.

I can't wait, and repeat, can't wait until they start blaming all the evils of the Western world upon a 'black man'.

I can see it happening - some of the rednecks will be a bit more determined/lucky.

Funny thing, I just realised - if he makes it, the president of the USA and their sworn enemy will almost have the same name Osama and Obama....
