I don't seem to remember Palmer being President in Season 1 anyway.  It was someone else, a white guy, IIRC.  Palmer was a Senator then, wasn't he?

"Racism??" - That's a cheap shot.

 Anyways, Barak doesn't stand a chance of winning, he's just a media darling right now - a novelty. No big deal, novelties eventually lose interest, especially since his middle name is "Hussein."

It's official, you are definitely a racist. Palmer is a guy I wish would be our President in real life, I don't care if he is white, black, yellow or green. Also, the guy who plays Palmer is great.

And as for Barak, I agree his name is a big turn off for racists and the uneducated populace, but the fact is the guy is gaining major steam and is even out-fundraising Hilary Clinton. I'm no democrat, but I admit that his canidacy is getting more possible every day. If it falls apart once the real voters start voting, then fine. The FACT right now is the guy is a serious contender for the nomination.

Yeah, he was a senator trying to get the democratic nomination in season 1.

SirPeale:
Palmer was just *running* in S1.

I don't find the idea of a black man as president as unrealistic as his freaking brother being elected to the same position just a few years later.

And as said...keep it civil.  Nasty stuff goes to P & R.

ChadTower:

So, I guess the most obvious part of Wunder's comment is that the reason he stopped watching 24 "a few episodes after it debuted" is based on something that wasn't even present in the show.
