The Obama effect
After Obama’s election there was an increase of black people running as candidate. His election affected the national racial politics because an African American has won the nation highest office. It gave opportunities to black people in politics that they did not know they had. This effect is called the “Obama effect”. Even though more Afro-Americans are running as candidate there were no increase in the African American being elected. Not only did Obama’s election have an impact on democrats, it also influences the republicans. A former republican senator opposed any form of racism in the GOP(Grand Old Party): "(When) we get a good, conservative African American running in the Republican Party, it is very welcome." (PAGE. Susan, 2013, par.17) The impact of Obama on politics goes beyond his race. The mind set and his ideas are what influence the American politics.
