Heinlein (not exactly a progressive voice!) had a story in _Expanded Universe_ in which a black woman became president and then enacted a bunch of oddball Heinleinian ideas.
I think the last book or two of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan franchise had a black fighter pilot as the VP, but I might be mistaken. (I gave up on Clancy much later than I should have--at this point, Jack Ryan is occasionally walking across lakes and calming storms with a rebuke.)
