Ever since Obama's re-election a number of individuals have resorted to extreme racial attacks on the president. During the election day some people attempted to somehow justify their racism by saying he somehow cheated the system by only winning the electoral college vote, and not the actual nationwide vote. When it was revealed that he did in fact win BOTH the electoral college AND the popular vote, the attacks just went full blown racial. Everything from calling him the N-word, to a monkey. With a huge percentage of these same posters saying that the only thing worse than a black man for president, would be a woman president.
What causes these individuals to be so bitter about a candidate winning an election tat they have to racially attack them? Despite all of the negativity, the majority of people still voted for Obama, and this shows that not everyone is racist or bigoted. But why are these individuals so against women or minorities attaining high positions of power? Does someone's gender or race affect their ability to lead?
