Perhaps, but to pick him as the best captain for that is, I'm sorry, just ridiculous.Ranger REG said:Without Sulu's leadership, Excelsior would have been destroyed in the shockwave of Praxis's explosion. That and aiding Kirk against a ship that can fire while cloaked, thus saving the peace between Federation and Klingon Empire.
That would be ridiculous and frankly demeaning, too. You're the best because of who you are and what you do, not what kind of skin you live in. If Sisko's the best captain it has nothing to do with his being Afro-American (ha, I watched Malcolm X recently, can you tell?).I'm sure that African-Americans and Nationals would praise Sisko for being their first "star" captain. I mean, up until DS9, they always cast Caucasian as the leading "star" captain of the Trek series.
And no, Picard ain't the best because he's white. Though maybe because he's naturally bald.
