The most significant thing in the 2008 presidential election was that It was the first presidential election where an African American won a major party’s nomination for president.

Barack Obama was the first African American that won a major party's nomination for president. He was the Democratic candidate for the presidency and won. Barack Obama represented all of the things that people demanded at that time after two terms of Republican George W. Bush.
