World champion boxer Bernard Hopkins, who will fight the undefeated Briton Joe Calzaghe in April, believes black Democratic contender Barak Obama would be assassinated "within months" if he became US president in November.
Hopkins, the world light-heavyweight boxing champion, told The Independent on Sunday: "I don't think America is ready for an African-American in the White House. If he gets the nomination they won't let him become president, but if they do, it will be for a short time, maybe less than a month or two. His life would be in jeopardy.

Yeh understand what your saying, but it is a possibility that we should be aware of. I mean if it does happen i assume it would be blamed on some lone nutter. Hopkins certinly does need to focus on boxing becasue Calzaghe is gunna do him!
