Actually you have a good question. Probably not! The Obama campaign has primarily focused a campaign on helping those who need help and bridging the race divide.
The campaign has been relatively a race neutral campaign for the most part. However, if McCain loses or comes near to losign their may be some violent fallout. This is because the Republicans have based their campaign on "red meat" rhetoric, with words like "terrorist", "dangerous", and "hurt".
These kinds of words tend to infalme supporters of McCain by making them more like to see Obama's success as more than a democratic choice but rather as a terrible thing that will be "dangerous", and one which may "hurt" americans by bring a "terrorist" here. Already the secret service has warned McCain that words like "kill him" and "hang him", "terrorist" and "death to the traitor" are completely illegal to have at a rally. Chances are we'll see increasing violence.
Examples beyond violant speak at rallies include, a woman in Dallas ... more.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
