520 |a Barack Obama, A First-Term Democratic Senator From Illinois, Will Formally Launch His Presidential Campaign On Saturday (February 10) In Springfield, Illinois. Obama Has Promised To Wage "A Different Kind Of Politics" In A Run For The White House That Could Shatter U.S. Racial Barriers And Make Him The First Black President. Obama, The Son Of A White Mother From Kansas And A Black Father From Kenya, Has Quickly Become A Leading Contender For The Heavily Contested Democratic Nomination, Along With Clinton And 2004 Vice Presidential Nominee John Edwards. But Obama'S Status As The First Black Presidential Contender Considered To Have A Real Shot At Winning The White House Has Not Translated Into Widespread Support From The African-American Community. Polls Show Hillary Clinton Is Favoured By A Majority Of Black Voters. Polls Show African-Americans Oppose The Iraq War At Higher Percentages Than White Voters, Making Obama'S Early Opposition To The War A Potential Selling Point. Clinton, Attacked By Some Democrats For Voting To Authorize The War And Being Too Slow To Renounce Her Vote, Has Stepped Up Her Criticism Of The Conflict. Political Analyst Sidney Blumenthal Gave This Analysis, "I Think Barack Obama'S Great Strength For Democratic Voters Is His Story, Which He'S Emphasized. It'S An Inspirational Story. It'S A Story Of Great Merit And Of Somebody Who Has Overcome Enormous Personal Obstacles And Has Risen As A Result Of His Talents, Skills, Energy And Dilligence. In Some Ways, It'S A Story Similar To Bill Clinton'S. He'S Raised By, In Some Ways, With A Single Mother And His Broken Family And Yet, Finds Himself Rising To These Positions All On His Own." The 45 Year-Old Obama Has Served In The U.S. Senate For Two Years. He Previously Served Seven Years In The Illinois Senate. He Is Married And Has Two Young Daughters.
