So right now Obama might win but it's no gurantee that the America of 2012 will remember the mistakes of 2004, hence repeating them.
You asked why people would change and I answered. If you want to rationalize that way, that's fine. Every country goes through political turns and changes.

Naturally I cannot guarantee either Obama or McCain can win. I think a lot has to happen and will happen over the next 5 months. But just know that to even have a black man be nominated as the Democratic nominee is a huge deal in America, and it does show progress and shows the world that America may not be quite as racist as the world often thinks.
