Racism in light of the elections

For the first time in history the United States of America has elected an African American President. Everyone seems to have a different view about what this means in regard to racism in this country. Some feel that this means racism doesn't exist in America. Others feel that this is a wonderful sign and huge step to eliminating to racism. Still others feel that this could become a barrier to anti-racism work by allowing people to say "oh racism doesn't exist... see we elected an African American President."

What is your take on this election and its connection to racism in America?
