Class divisions will always be around no matter what. If we are not divided by money class we will be divided by mentality class and there is nothing a revolution can do about that.

what do you mean by "mentality class"? I think (am assuming) you are talking about mental labor and manual labor. Well this contradiction too could be moved beyond, but this will require a revolution within the revolution (the socialist transition to communism) in the realm of education. But also at the economic base, the birthmarks of capitalism exist in socialist society. Socialism is still capitalism, it is just what class holds state power. In order for anything to change for the better, the current ruling class has got to go.

now all of this fear some people have for having a Black man as the president, well that type of thinking is another thing that has to be done away with. There is nothing wrong with having a Black man (or woman) as the leader of a society... It is just a matter of what society that person is leading and what is at the economic base of that society (which dictates what kind of society, how people interact with one another); and what kind of society is this?

The simple fact is, white supremacy is interwoven into the very fabric of U.S. society and no one auditioning to become the president, no election can ever change this...

some "Food For Thought":

On April 25, 2008, a New York judge acquitted the New York City police who fired 50 shots at Sean Bell. They murdered him—just hours before his scheduled wedding. They severely wounded two of his friends. When asked about this verdict, Barack Obama replied: “The judge has made his ruling, and we are a nation of laws, so we respect the verdict that came down.”

With Barack Obama,
“We Shall Overcome”
has become
“We Shall Overlook.”
