would it be racist if...

ok, you know how in most movies there are fictional presidents? well, would it be racist if we had a fictional president in a new movie whowas white now that obama is our president?

No, if someone made that connection they would be a moron.

Depends on the time period it is set in.

However all the old movies set in this year with a white president? Pure unadulterated racism bigotry and hatred.

Look at this new season of 24: they have awhite female as president. You don't see people boycotting the show because of thatdo you?

I don't think anybody would care what type of President was in the film unless he wore a turban. I could then see some people making a huuuuge deal out of it.

I just think that it would be stupid if someone tried to boycott a movie because they didnt have a black president in it for whatever reason.

Was it racist to have a fictional black president while we had a real white president? If not, then no.

Nope I don't think it would be.

No it wouldn't strike me as racist at all...

Nope. That is not the definition of racist....

No its not racist in the slightest.

Considering that movies, etc. never modelled their presidents after Bush, I don't see why it would.

No. That would be way too far fetched if someone pulled the racist card out on a situation like that.Avistann

No, not at all.

No, if someone made that connection they would be a moron.

But you just know Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton would seize that opportunity...

Considering it doesn't noticeably insult any race, obviously no.

No. It would be idiotic to think that it is.

:lol: No they wouldn't.

On Topic: Why is this even question?

films are made for entertainment not to breed racism. if your thoughts dwell too much on these type of things during a non- controversial movie... then you have some personal issues.

What? Why would you ask that? No, of course not.
