The Democratic nominee in 2016 will be to the left of Obama, and the country will be ready for it. The political "center" has been dragged to the right by Republicans refusing to compromise for quite a bit of time, to where we now have a centrist party and a far-right party in this country. Obama's skin color, quite frankly, is what has prevented the left from pulling the right back closer to the middle by moving further back to the *actual* left. There wouldn't have been half of the fuss about all of the semi-progressive things that Obama has done if it were Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton doing it.
