Because there wasn't a black man running in the previous elections. Many urban blacks have a tendency to riot and demolish things when an issue doesn't go their way (Obama losing), and while white-initiated riots are rarer, they tend to be more destructive and homicidal (Tulsa 1927, Rosewood, Draft Riots, etc). I half expect riots no matter -who- wins; blacks rioting if Obama loses, whites rioting if he wins.
As I said below, fuckheads of any race need little excuse to smash things and steal whatever's not nailed down. And the world is, sadly, full of fuckheads.

Yeah, I would agree the media has dropped their end of the bargain with rare exception (NPR, BBC are still good). Sad state of affairs that.
I'm not convinced that a "black man" running in this election will cause riots. Unless there was shenanigans going on at the ballot box but otherwise, no.
