My point is we elected the whitest black guy we could possibly find and even then it took 230 years. We still have a long way to go before we pat ourselves on the back.

Exactly. A minority candidate absolutely can win, as long as they can rally Democratic voters.
I hope you’re right but I have my doubts.
