Beyond race We also don't yet know how long the Obama effect—both its good side and its bad—will last

And what if Americans become so familiar with having Obama as their president that they stop considering his race altogether?

This might seem like the ultimate defeat for racism, but ignoring the race of certain select individuals—a phenomenon that psychologists call subtyping—also has an insidious (隐伏的) side

The worst possible aspect of the Obama effect is that people could ignore his race altogether and continue to hold on to their old racial stereotypes.
