A sociological analysis of Barack Obama's historic 2008 campaign for the presidency of the United States. Elaborating on the concept of the white racial frame, assesses the ways racial framing was deployed by principal characters in the 2008 election. Counters many commonsense assumptions about race, politics, and society, particularly the idea that Obama's election ushered in a post-racial era. From publisher description.
