To some degree, sure, but Obama is a straight 50-50, poised right in the middle with a Kenyan father and white American mother. His legal and legislative career also set him apart from the typical "black activist" mold where most African-American politicians were shoehorned before, with a few exceptions.

Much depends on whether Obama can actually govern with a truly inclusive vision or not. At least he is talking the talk so far.
