You could not be more wrong redleopard.
Obama is not idolized in this country just because he is Black.
People respond to Obama because he is a gifted orator and a brilliant man. He graduated near the top of his class from Harvard Law, was elected to the Illinois State Senate, then the U.S. Senate. He's most recently won the Democratic Nomination for President. These factors alone demand respect and they have nothing to do with his race.
The rest of your screed is just as baseless and divorced from reality as your earlier assertion:
Whites don't have special months honoring them.
First, most minorities have had to fight for some special month/week/day recognizing their accomplishments and history because they were ignored and/or mis-represented in mainstream history education. Black history month, for example:
"When the tradition of Black History Month was started in the US, many in mainstream academia had barely begun to explore black history. At that point, most representation of blacks in history books was only in reference to the low social position they held as slaves and their descendants, with the exception of George Washington Carver"

The reason there is no "special" white history month is because white history has been taught as History since the foundation of this country. That said, many white Americans from different countries do indeed have special months/weeks celebrating their heritage, such as National Italian American Heritage Month:

And Irish Heritage Month

Whites don't have special college funds & programs based on race.
But whites did have segregation, Jim Crow and quotas to prevent Jews from attending elite colleges. But that's history. Today, there are special college funds and programs based on race because, similar to white history month explained above, most minorities were excluded from higher education for the moajority of this country's history.
That said there are many scholarships specifically set aside for European studies and students.

Whites don't have special magizines, TV stations, companies, and contests based on race.
Wrong. Most of our media is geared toward the majority, white people, in this country. Minorities were alomst completely absent in mainstream media until the early 60's. Today, it's easy to turn on your television and see nothing but white people. Have you ever seen the show Friends? Sex and the City? Are these shows geared toward minorities?
Despite the fact that a channel is not specifically named "White Entertainment Television", most television is de facto white television: Country Music Television, for example, is the functional equivalent of BET.
And when it come to hiring time; Whites have to meet a higher standard in order to get hired;
Not really. There are affirmative action programs in some companies and schools that seek out minorities. And there are also white employers that seek out people that remind them of themselves (ie white people); or people that they feel "comfortable" around (ie white people); or people that are friends of friends (ie white people); or people that share their sense of humor (ie white people).
There have also been studies that show that minorites are oftentitmes discriminated against based on having ethnic sounding names in job interviews.
So, I'd say there is a bit more to these issues than you are presenting in your factually deficient post.
