“I am floored by the attitude that if one African American succeeds then racism is no longer pervasive in America!!!”

It’s not that “one” African American is succeeding, it’s that millions are succeeding, and Obama’s success shows that they can succeed even to the top of the political world, and with the help of literally millions of white people cheering him on over viable white candidates (who have more politiacal experience). I don’t know what sort of utopian evidence you’re looking for to conclude that reacism isn’t “pervasive,” but this is pretty encouraing.
