Depending on your interpretation of him, we already had a gay president in James Buchanan.

Can one of the members of the British royal family not marry another white person for once, or would those colored folks just not fit in? Not to mention that still doesn't answer the fucking question on how us electing a black guy is not a how great America is, that's somehow a big fucking step for us. Yet Europe -the land of tolerance and happy time- has failed to elect a minority PM, where the monarchies -though fucking hereditary, only seem to be interested in fucking with their own kind.
But you're right, that would get in the way with how fucking bad America is.
I was talking about Muslims, which er, I would have thought was obvious on account of how I said "Muslims." Even so, with only 20% non-white, it's hardly surprising that there hasn't been a non-white Canadian PM yet. That's solidly a minority, and a large number of them are recent migrants.
The British royals pretty much have to marry Anglo-Saxons to avoid rabble rousing from That Sort Of Person, although there's a tendency toward monoracial marriages in any case (racially mixed marriages making up some 11% of the total, if I remember correctly) probably due to cultural agreement between individuals of the same background.
Nor should it be ignored that Europe generally has far fewer non-whites than America, and again, many of them are recent migrants. (I also doubt that not a single European country has elected a minority candidate, although there's no easy way to check that.)
And finally electing a black man in America is a big deal because of the perceived prejudice towards black Americans from many in the country, which isn't the case for countries in Europe (although with the developing islamophobia in the region, who knows). Not that I said electing a black guy was a big step for America - just that it wasn't a big step for the world.
tl;dr: you are wrong

This exemplifies the mindset that will prevent the election of a female president anytime soon, if at all. It's not a flat-out stated bias, it's a bias of omission - the omission of the female pronoun. It's not that women are actively and deliberately excluded, it's that they aren't thought of in the first place and it's not considered odd or unusual.
Or, ya know, I'm just using the universal "he" for a person of unknown gender, grammatically correct, unlike "they" or "them"
Way to read WAY too much into what I said.
