The
presidential campaign has always been an extremely important thing to all the
citizens of the United States. This election process is a staple to making our
nation what it is today. However, there is a topic that many don't talk about, the way this is changing. Over the course of history almost all of our
presidents have been determined almost entirely by the white vote. Some
presidents would do nothing to support our minority groups. They were more of a
side note to the election and if they received their votes it was more a perk
or a bonus than the main focus of a campaign. They were able to be kicked aside
and left wanting instead of being a national priority for presidents. However,
this is changing.
Slowly over
time the Black vote has become more and more influential in the presidential
campaign. Demographic poles have been stating that this in fact may be the last
election not dictated by the white vote. Opinions that were considered as opinions from
only a minority group will no longer be treated as such. They will have
to be addressed as majority opinions. As
horrible as it sounds to say it is true when I say that. Presidential nominees are going to
have to start treating the election differently even though they should have
been thinking of all races equally throughout all elections. A new time has come and we need the right leaders to step up and become the future of America leading us to be a more prosperous nation and actually truly care about all our citizens equally and value each of them for who they are.
