[Marxism] Obama win does not end racism, activists say

[S. Artesian]

There is of course the fact the economy is going to require Obama do certain 
things, no matter how intelligent he might be.

This is, after, capitalism, and capitalist accumulation sets the agenda. 
Unlike Clinton who was elected as a recession was ending, and when capital 
investment was just beginning, Obama will take office with an economy 
contracting a a high rate.

It really does not matter what he wants to do, or how anxious his supporters 
are for him to do x, y, z, or x', y', z'.

We can speculate all we want, but as the investment banks have proven, 
speculation is a less than zero sum game.
