The cartoon is really showing how Obama is the hope for the future and that all the people are out in the dark if they don´t believe or follow his ways. The cowboy is framed as being the "average american", the KKK member is framed as being a major racism issue in the United States and the rebel flag shirted man is framed as being the right wing. Racist rebells that are out in the dark and not in support of the president.


Obama uses "stupidly" in referring to the actions taken by the police in the Gate Incident. It frames Obama as stupid for being on his friends Gate´s side. The controversy over Gate´s arrest has been framed almost exclusively in racial terms. Obama spoke before having all the facts.


Obama paints the White House black. Cartoon has two main focuses that can be taken in consideration. One is that Obama, being of color is painting the white house black and the other one, since posted in an Israeli newspaper, has to be the big focus; Obama is not good for jewish people (black is a bad color for zionists).


According to this picture Obama´s been pulling the "race card" and since Hillary can´t do that, she is trying to take it from him. It frames how racial minorities play the race card all the time. White people find it unfair.

Two working class white men are discussing how they can relate to a woman or to a black man. It frames Obama as a black man who has nothing in common with white men, either black men or woman is a toss-up because neither are like white men.


Biden has a racist paradigm that Bush criticizes. Biden fulfills that paradigm by contradicting his earlier statement. It frames Obama and black people as inarticulate and unclean. Biden cultivates that by speaking in slang so Obama can understand him better.


Hillary is dressing up as a person of color and Bill is confused. Hillary Clinton is saying she thinks she has more of a chance winning pretending to be a person of color rather than being a woman.
