Seems to have worked for them.

I agree with what others said, it's a publicity stunt. And look at all the publicity it's getting. Seems to have worked for them.

This is not racial. This is publicity. This is to make the customer's curious and taste the thing out - which means more business for them.

I don't think it is racially motivated either, just a company trying to associate themselves with a good brand.

I agree with Julie's comment. I don't think that it is racially motivated. Also, people are ignorant and the company should have realised that this is a delicate and sensitive matter.This site has good information.Thanks

I must agree with Angela "I suspect this company would have created the product, even if Obama hadn't been a black man. I think it's simply his popularity (not his color) that caused this."

It is a known tactic to leverage someone else's popularity.

Hmm I agree with Julie's comment. I don't think that it is racially motivated. Also, people are ignorant and the company should have realised that this is a delicate and sensitive matter.

Yes that's bad taste but you have to admit it's still kind of funny :)

Obama symbolizes hope throughout the world. I believe that it was his world wide appeal that generated this idea. My experience, as an African American, with Europeans, generally speaking, is that they do not fully understand the impact of America's historical context and how it "plays out" in all aspects of American life. I would not impose our American biases/prejudices on Germans. Until we shine the light on our own prejudices and tackle them, who are we to admonish another country for what they do.

Well, it's bad taste, even though I'm not sure it was meant racially. After all, you have "chicken fingers", too. People have this idea of a "fingers" dish being some sort of chicken strip. At least Obama HAS fingers, LOL.

I suspect this company would have created the product, even if Obama hadn't been a black man. I think it's simply his popularity (not his color) that caused this.
