America's not ready for a BLACK president. Not just a "minority" president. While men have male privilege under the patriarchy, the black male combination can buffer the effects of that in many contexts.
And America's not ready for a female president. If Hillary Clinton gets elected, it is only because of three reasons: 1) she was married to Bill so she's been in the White House and people have seen her politics, 2) she's the lesser of the two (female candidate vs. black male candidate) "Democrat evils" and 3) all of the Dem and Repub candidates suck so it was either Clinton or Donald Duck.
As an Independent, I'm voting for Donald Duck.
