My reasoning behind this is his heritage. I mean, the majority of political cartoonists are of a different ethnicity and making fun of another heritage is a big taboo in today's society (which I don't believe it wrong). This concludes that cartoonists and the like will probably voice jokes less and walk on eggshells when doing so. I'm not saying there won't be humor involved, just that it won't focus on his lesser attributes, especially once we learn them (because no one is perfect...remember that).
Now this is a theory I have made up based on the way I see people living around me. I know many people that are excited about Obama taking office just for the fact that he is of the background that he is...and nothing else. I find this a flawed system. Obama shouldn't be great because of his genes, he should be great because he is a solid leader with good credentials and I strong grasp of what America needs.
Good luck Obama. I say this because you have a lot of scrutiny to put up with both positive and negative. Be the PERSON we need for the future.
