I agree that Obama has had a harder time of things due to his race, and his name, as well. Both factors feed the xenophobia that the extremely conservative Americans seem to feel.
Also, the quotes you grabbed are pretty ambiguous, featuring both praise and criticism.
I think your hypothetical scenario is not how it would play out, though. Presidents don't get impeached for getting upset. They get impeached for catching blowjobs. And that includes white Presidents, too.
Individual media outlets have their own biases. Fox is irredeemably conservative, the New York Times irredeemably liberal, and I don't think that's going to change any time soon. The media as a whole seems to me to have had a liberal bent in the past, but I haven't consumed mass media in a few years so I can't speak to the state of affairs today.
Fox News is blatantly conservative, MSNBC is blatantly progressive. CNN is closet liberal. You're not going to get away from an agenda. Best thing is to take your news in from a wide variety of sources and filter out the BS.
I look at Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, Al Jazeera, Russian Times, and the BBC. Does anyone have any recommendations of sites I should be adding?
