A candidate who stays "black" on the issues? Failing to transcend his subculture? When was the last time a republican candidate didn't stay "white" on the issues? Hell, republicans don't even bother to recruit the black vote because they know they have little to offer.
I don't necessarily disagree with your point, but you shouldn't suggest that Obama is somehow singular because he chooses to pander to his constituents.
