In the primary, Barack Obama was running against a white woman, Hillary Rodham Clinton. In the 2008 election, his opponent was an aging white war veteran, John McCain. Agree or disagree with the following statement and justify your answer: "The election of President Obama was not a victory for the civil rights movement but a sign of the increased diversity of the American population, which is generally more willing to accept people of color."
