Last week the chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, admitted that African American members of Congress are being lenient on President Obama’s lackluster effort to assist issues that plague the African American community because he is black. Pointing specifically to the surge of unemployment in the African American community, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver said, “If we had a white president we’d be marching around the White House.” He continued to say that if Hillary Clinton sat in the oval office he’d tell her “My sister, I love you, but this has got to go.”
Cleaver continued by saying, “The president knows we are going to act in deference to him in way we wouldn’t to someone white.” Paul Butler, law professor at Georgetown University and author of Let’s Get Free: A Hip-Hop Theory of Justice, wrote a column in response to Cleaver’s remarks. “This is black solidarity at its most self-defeating,” he said. “It’s why, as the President hands out goodies to other core groups in the Democratic base, African-Americans get squat. On the campaign trial, Obama delivered to Latinos his own version of The DREAM Act, gays received their long-sought presidential endorsement of same-s*x marriage, and union workers get a job-protection intervention directed at China.”
Butler continued to say African Americans have received the short end of the stick under the Obama Administration: “African-Americans, on the other hand, are like Charlie Brown on Halloween,” Butler said. “While everyone else gets candy, they get a rock. Obama’s most emphatic statement on black unemployment was back in 2009, when he said, ‘I can’t pass laws that say I’m just helping black folks. I’m president of the entire United States.’”
Butler offered two lessons that African American constituents can learn from other constituents that President Obama has assisted. “There are two lessons for blacks here, and other groups who feel taken for granted by the administration,” Butler said. “First, leadership has to lead. From day one, the gay establishment did not cut Obama any slack. In contrast, many African-American leaders, from the Black Caucus on down, seem asleep at the wheel.” Continuing with the second lesson, Butler said ”Second, the grassroots has to be demanding. Racial justice is never going to be the president’s priority unless people of color get impatient. There is always going to be something—unrest abroad, a natural disaster, a campaign—that will legitimately demand the president’s attention. The gay community didn’t say,‘Never mind, we’ll wait our turn,‘ and neither should African-Americans.”
Butler criticized the Congressional Black Caucus for failing to represent the needs of the African American community in the White House. “The 43 members of the Black Caucus call themselves the conscience of the Congress,” Butler said. ”But when it comes to forcing Obama’s hand, they seem missing in action. As Cleaver put it, the caucus “is always hesitant to criticize the president.’”
I have supported my president since day one yet I agree I assumed upon voting for him that legislation o support the black community like legislation to support the at community or the Spanish community would have been greater and he has lacked ……it is a huge disappointment and many people are wishing on a whim and hoping for something but nothing was ever promised……:nothing at all
@Andrew, just a couple of questions: 1. What exactly has the President done for the Hispanic Community, 2. What could or should the President do for the Black Community that would be comparable to what he’s done for the Hispanic Community or for the Gay’s?
I’ve been hearing all of this whining and complaining about what the President hasn’t done and how much of a disappointment he is but nobody seems to be able to answer just these two little questions.
I agree and it would help if he had a House of Representatives who took their mission to ehlp the country instead of getting him out of office. He’s not Jesus! he’s not a dictator either! Get real, get you butts out of churches and keep track of what your kids are doing while you spend all day there! Just WHAT is he supposed to do for us anyway?
Well, for one thing, he’s supported a pathway to citizenship for Latino’s (mostly Mexicans) who are currently here illegally. That is something most racist Republikkkans oppose. Obama’s also created a program where children of illegals can get financial aid and scholarships to get their college education–once again something that the Republikkkans oppose.
@Rod S., you see this is exactly what I’m talking about. The two things you mentioned has nothing at all to do with Black people and can’t be related to Blacks in any way. “Supporting a pathway to citizenship for Latino’s”. They’re already here; who let them in? Kicking them out isn’t going to help Blacks because most of the jobs they get Black won’t do. Blacks don’t need a pathway to citizenship; we’re already citizens. Secondly, Children of African-Amercans get financial aid and scholarships so what’s your point? So in other words you want this President to do to Hispanics what white people did to Blacks for over 200 years? This whole argument of comparing African-Americans to Hispanics and Gay’s is just stupid. They can’t be compared in any way. Everything Hispanics and Gay’s are fighting for Blacks already have; we just aren’t doing s**t with it and that certainly isn’t the Presidents fault.
James A., you truly are completely uneducated on this black vs Hispanic comparison. Saying that @Rod S. wants Obama to do to Hispanics what was done to blacks for over 200 years is showing yourself to be ignorant of U.S. history. The largest number of persons ILLEGALLY present in this country today are so-called “Hispanics”. No one knows for sure how many there are, but Luis Gutierrez, MALDEF, LULAC, LA RAZA, NALEO fight for their continued presence because they represent an effort at what they call “La Reconquista”, an ignorant attempt to “reclaim territory stolen from their ancestors by the Gringo”. Blacks were brought here as slaves, against their will. Hispanics who are here in ILLEGAL status came here of their own accord, violated our laws on immigration, and now demand that the government “take them out of the shadows”. You, James A., are either a Hispanic plant masquerading as other than or you are a liberal dupe like Barack Obama who is willing to be relegated to yet another inferior status as the illegally-present “Hispanics” take roots in our society. Shame on you!
Why do you use the “kkk” slur when typing the work “Republican.” If you had once ounce of education, you would KNOW that the Republican Party has stood in the face of racist democrats time and time again.
(1) No Republican ever owned a slave, uless it was by happenstance of inheritance, and if such happenstance, the slave(s) was promptly set free. The REASON the Republican Party was established was to end slavery.
(2) Virtually all slave owners were democrats.
(3) The KKK was formed by democrats who were mad about losing the Civil War. Their targets were two groups — blacks and Republicans. That’s right, pasty white Republicans got lynched right along with black people. The KKK also organized politically, to run Republicans out of office and replace them with democrats.
(4) Jim Crow laws were passed ONLY in states which were lock-step controlled by democrat politicians.
(5) It was the democrats in the Senate who tried their best to filibuster the Civil Rights Act of 1964 — it took the Republicans to break the back of the filibuster so that the law could come to a final vote and become law.
(6) It was the democrats (1967 — The Great Society) that came up with WIC, foodstamps, SSI, and other massive “welfare” programs. As you know, these programs decimated the black family by enticing poor black people — which most were — to NOT marry in exchange for free stuff from the government. These same democrats also came up with government housing projects and filled them with black people, and then basically abondoned them there.
I just don’t understand why black people are so in love with the democrat party — it’s the party that has done horrible things to black people for as long as this country has been around.
You are talking about the Old Republicans. The Republicans today are the same as the Democrats of yesteryears.
You are another misinformed American. Since I don’t have time to teach you some of American’s history; here is a video where you can get a quick lesson on the history of the democratic and the republican party. http://youtu.be/hwqhoVIh65k
If you don’t believe what the narrator is telling you, then do some research for yourself. There is only one rule and that is that you must have and keep an opened mind. The truth will only hurts for a little while.
As mentioned in the article – Obama pushed hard for same-s*x marriage for gays for the Dream act for Hispanics. These are targeted policies where Obama basically rewrote laws to satisfy these groups. Black people just want what is fair since we are primarily why his is office.
DIVIDE ANS CONQUER!!!
It really boggles my mind as how stupid and uninformed you people are. You’re making fools out of yourselves wtih these ridiculous comments.
I noticed that, too.
You should check the nearest mirror!
Thank you. You are so correct. All of these people do not get it. He is the President of THE United States, not just the Black or Hispanic Community, and a lot of the things he wants to do helps “all”, yet the Republicans have basically sat on their hands, shaking their heads, no, no, no, no matter what he tries to do, just to carry forth their agenda of making him a one term President, BECAUSE heis Black, whereas it is US the Voters who decide who is President.And Mitt Romney will do nothing for anybody but the Wealthy. He claims that at Bain Capital they created American jobs. Just lasy week, in Wisconsin there was either a Senator or Congressman (Republican), that held a Town Hall Meeting. There was a man there that works for a Subsidiary of Bain Capital for thirty three years, and he and one hundred an sixty niine other employees are about to lose their jobs, because they are shipping their jobs to China, and get this, they are going to do this AFTER the Elections. The man just asked if this guy supported Legislation removing Tax cuts for American Companies that do this exact same thing, and rather than answer the question, his Aides told the man they were “calling the authorities”, and the guy just walked OUT of the meeting. Why would you call the Police for a man that respectfully asked a legitimate question, and I knowthis is accurate because the article had a video clip of the incident attached. Ridiculous.
Are you really that dumb? That Bain Capital story you just told is totally bogus. The man worked for Bain Capital for 33 years? Here is how I know the story is bogus — Bain Capital was started in 1984, or 28 years ago. Thus, it is literally impossible for anyone, anywhere, to have worked for Bain Capital for 33 years. You are simply making up a story so you can slam Romney — YOU are just pathetic.
OK, fine; let’s pretend that Bain Capital has been around 33 years, and this phoney guy you talk about had worked for Bail all 33 years . . . . How many people do you know who worked 33 years for any company? It is extremely rare. Bascially, he was blessed to be employed for 33 years; something changed, and they had to let him go. It happens. Do YOU curse someone who employed you for 33 years when it finally comes to an end? Someone who gave you financial security, money to buy and pay for a house (30 years is the longest loan out there), feed and clothe your kids, send them to collge, and so on? Sound like the guy is a total ingrate, or perhaps he is mentally nutzo (and that explains why they had the police escort him out).
And yes, sometimes a business closes a specific location after 33 years. There is only one Dollar General Store in the nation that is still where it was 33 years ago — their “home” store in Scottsville, KY. And frankly, a lot of companies that were around 33 years ago don’t exist anywhere at all today (they went out of business completely).
Now, Mitt Romney left Bain Capitall over 10 years ago. Blaming Mitt Romney for something that happens at Bain today is crazy. That would be like blaming Bill Clinton for something that went wrong in government today. Bill Clinton has been out of office for over 10 years, and two other “managers” have held his job since then.
P.S. Mohammed was a pedophile.
@James A, let me jump in on this. The President could have and should have appointed two blacks to the supreme court. He refused to do so instead he put one white and one hispanic. He gave all that stimulus money to rich white democrats instead of investing that money into black communities in the form of low to no cost loans. He has 23 people in his cabinet and only 3 are black (if that). He gets 95% of the black vote and never comes into the black communities as a lead would/should do instead he goes singing and dancing on these white TV shows. He hurt black employment by passing the amnesty law for illegals. He supported gay marriage despite the majority of black Americans being against it. He said that by now unemployment would be below 6% if the stimulus and the obamacare got passed. He has failed black america and now he is moving onto the hispanics. Please don’t act like he’s helpless to help back people. Do you remember what he was saying when he was running for president? You couldn’t keep him out of the black churches and black neighborhoods… Just do what you say you’re going to do when you ran.. Stop making excuses. Ask yourself this brother if he was white would still be saying the same thing. I think not. Don’t let the black community be destroyed just because he black. He had his shot time to try something/someone new….respectfully…..
I agree with your statement in general. I want to speak to the Supreme Court Justices and Cabinet in particular.
First, the thing I find most disturbing is that Obama appointed incompetent idealogues to the court. While I would have been fine with Obama appointing black people to the Court, my desire would have been that, first and foremost, Obama had appointed top-shelf talent (and yes, Obama could have found top-shelf talent that happened to have negroid physical characteristics). Now, just imagine what kind of damage Obama will do to the Supreme Court if given another 4 years? His next appointee will probably be an out-of-closet lesbian (vs. the in-the-closet one he already appointed).
Regarding the cabinet positions, all I can tell you is that George Bush had more black people in his administration than Obama does. Sure, the political philosphy of those black people might have been different than most posters on this baord (i.e., they were Republicans), but still, gotta give George Bush his due.
P.S. Mohammed had s*x with a nine-year old.
Who in the black community benefits more from this illegal, blatantly political, so-called “Deferred Action For Child Arrivals”? As many as 80 – 90% of the beneficiaries will be so-called Latinos or Hispanics! You, James A. may be one of those sellouts who is willing to give Obama a grand pass, but there are many of us who were fooled once, but who will not be fooled or abused a second time by a so-called “brother” who has taken us for granted and believes that we must vote for him, considering the alternative. I, for one, will be looking for good House and Senate candidates that are willing to face down this trick “brother” who has not even seen fit to visit the killing fields (or killing streets) of Chicago’s South Side, his supposed former “community organizer” haunts.
As bad as unemployment is for black persons ages 16 – 30, adding 1.3 to 1.8 million additional persons (who are not legally in the country, whose parents will not be punished in exchange for the supposed “innocent children up to age 30″ to get this illegal, non-Congressionally mandated benefit to job hunt roles will further squeeze young blacks out of jobs.
As for creating a housing assistance system to benefit persons who find themselves with “under water” mortgages, “brother Barack” chose to give the funds to the banks so that they could then “trickle it down” to homeowners, many of whom are black inner city residents who are still waiting to hear from those banks. Of course, these are the same bank big shots who contributed to Barack’s 2008 election effort!
Hey, James A., how are these points for starters in “whining” about Barack’s lack of dealing with the black community?
@j.e.smith, you’re just a stupid a*s n****r. You call me a sellout? Please this s**t you’re talking is so lame and I bet you think you’re educated. You are the epitome of a “house n****r”. It appears your whole argument is directed at me and that’s ok because I encounter idiots like you on a daily basis. I don’t need to talk facts with you because your a*s is so stupid you wouldn’t understand anyway. Your biggest problem is that you have no common sense and people with no common sense have an unrealistic view of what really goes on in the world. You toss around s**t that you’ve heard that isn’t relevant to anything credible; talking points. Check out some of the polls stupid. You and the rest like you are living in a fantasy world. Obama will be re-elected by a landslide and it’s because he’s the best candidate. Why don’t you get off you dumb a*s and get on the bus with those other two “house n*****s”; West and Tavis. You people make me sick.
You have a point however, one would have expected President Obama to have appointed one African American supreme court justice out of the two appointments he has made so far given the fact that Clarence Thomas does not represent the interest of African Americans.
That’s because they don’t have a clue! Where were these people for the last 50 years complaining about blacks’ low employment in those years? In my lifetime I have never heard of black high employment. What do they want President to do open CC camps for them. The manufacturers have been going out of the country for fifteen years or more. And since black men mostly work in manufacturing jobs and women in clerical jobs what, I’m asking, were we thinking? Jobs were leaving the USA, jobs that we worked? Haven’t we heard the recording and live foreign customer services voices, haven’t we seen the ‘made in China’ decals on everything we buy and before that other countries.
Get on our children and MAKE them love learning. Prepare them for this global economy. This is a technology world, get with it. NOW!
The rest of you better begin retraining yourselves and stay away from your “medicines” liquor, drugs, etc.
Watch the messagener. What have they done. Dont fall for the oke doke.
Get the h**l out of here man. So what Barack is supposed to do what put everything else on the back burner to deal with nothing but Black issues?? Everybody at the top is preventing him from doing everything and anything which by the way would help Black people but you want him to stop the world and struggle solely for us huh? First of all damned near everything that he has done benefits Blacks second how long would you expect him to last if he did that…..worked solely for Blacks? Would it be ok if the next president after him (White) worked solely for Whites and showed it? Get freakin real idiot everything that he does benefits Blacks because what he does he is doing for people in need of help in one way it another…. I’m going to leave it at that before I tell you how I feel about Black folks asking for more out of the president because I sure would not be nice.. ! Do like I did all these years with all White presidents…..Get It Your Damned Self With Or Without Help!!
@PETER, YOU TEACH PEOPLE HOW TO TREAT YOU!IF YOU CONTINUE TO VOTE LIKE BLIND HERD FOLLOWERS, YOU WILL BE TREATED AS SUCH- @worked solely for Blacks?———-NO ONE ASKED HIM TO WORK SOLELY FOR BLACKS- THE BLACK COMMUNITY SHOULD BE REPRESENTED LIKE EVERYONE ELSE- HE FLIES INTO L.A., BYPASSES S.CENTRAL & HEADS STRAIGHT FOR BEVERLY HILLS, FILLS HIS POCKETS WITH THE WHITE 1% CASH & FLEES.HE IS A FRAUD-CLEAR & SIMPLE!
Hey Kate, he goes to Beverly Hills, and the last I checked, there are African Americans in Beverly Hills too that donate to his election and not just whites.
and how much do you have to contribute – oh forgot, you gave it all to that pedophile screacher at church!
But it was still the one-perceters that Obama went to see. He doestn’t give a d**n about poor and middle-class blacks. For that matter, he doestn’t give a d**n about poor and middle class whites. Now, if you are a illegal alien, that’s a different story; Obama loves illegal aliens.
P.S. Mohammed was a rapist.
Your so right Peter, what is he suppose to do. Make black parents take more resonsibilty for their children education,go to PTA meetings and take part in their childrens education, monitor what the children are watching on television and insure that home work is being done. Is he suppose to insure our children graduate from high shcool and be academically prepared for the next level of education or training.What I’m saying is, are we doing all we can do for ourselves. The job market today requires that we have skills that that qualify us employment. In closing the unemployment rate for college graduates is under 4% and as race we are 14 to 17%. The president can only do so much, I think in his next term we will see more programs to help our people.
You actually believe that?
@theprovider, I believe you and I agree with you.
We should have made sure that our children were prepared for this global economy. I have substituted in a high school and may the Creator have mercy on us. You never seen such chaos, ignorance, nig**er calling in your life! A complete disrespect for learning and their superiors (teachers and principal). And the few that were reared to respect their teachers and other adults sitting quietly by in all of that mayhem is pitiful to watch.
Mamas coming to the school acting like full blooded ignoramuses, cussing and wanting to fight. It is pitiful. But, we better change if we want to survive and now sometimes I doubt our survival. And when I most despaired along came Obama, the blessed one, and my spirit is lifted.
Thanks Peter for keeping it real. It’s time for Blacks to stop walking around with their hats in their hands looking for a handout. President Obama is doing everything he can. If Blacks want change then maybe we should do some changing themselves.
I agree that folks ought not be looking for a handout. That said, Obama has totally ignored the black community. Obama’s policies have hurt the “black community” far more than other people groups have been hurt. Unemployment among blacks, especially black males, has syrockted under Obama, while unemployment among whites has incresed at only half the rate of blacks. (Notice: no identifiable people-group is better off under Obama. Bush was bad, Obama is worse.)
How has Obama hurt the black community? Well, amnesty for illegal aliens is a great example. Those illegal aliens tend to compete with “high-school only” and “high school dropout” black people for labor-type jobs, such as janitors and factory work, and entry-level retail jobs, like Walmart. I know those aren’t the greatest jobs on the planet, but they are jobs that a LOT of people would be happy to have right now.
@me112233, we have been in the USA long enough not to be on the bottom of the totem pole. Other blacks with the same amount of racism have pulled themselves up by their non-existing boot straps. If we had tried a little harder and respected our selves, we could do better than cashiers, McDonald’s and other low paying jobs.
Although their is nothing wrong with working at these jobs, but they are low paying and precarious to your health and better living standards.
For sure, employers are going to hire the aliens with their reputation that they will work hard. They are not the type, you know walking around dragging their feet talking about it not my job to do it. If it not your job, we need to get busy and find us a job that is our job.
They didn’t close the technical and colleges when the other blacks walked out of them.
I know I sound mean spirited here, but I am so sick and tired of that, “he ain’t done nothing for us” mentality on these black sites. You have a chance for health insurance, grants, that you need to get busy. I feel the way the heroine, Fannie Lou Hammer felt, I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired” of black folks begging and thinking some one else has to do for them.
I understand fully what the black experience is in the United States. I’ve lived through the worst years of oppression after slavery, I’m a graduate of Jim Crow segregation, born and reared in Mississippi. But, I do believe in the concept of self-help.
@peter
Amen brother!
I agree, Peter—where was all this complaining when Bush and all the other white presidents were in office? People act like they want Obama to walk on water—he is President of the ENTIRE United States, not just black folk…let’s see these negroes complain to Romney if God-forbid Romney is elected, and let’s see if Romney will give a you-know-what about them…
What planet have you been living on? George W Bush has been riduculed by black people since the day he was elected. If you mention “George Bush” in a room full of black people, you will instantly get tons of negative feedback.
And while it is true that Obama (as all presidents before him) is the president of all the citizens of the Untied States, Obama has taken time out of his busy golf and fund-raising schedule to do special things for illegal aliens (80% hispanic) and gays. Obama has also seen to it that his one-percenter friends have gotten a nice slice of the government pie ($535,000,000 for Solyndra, for example). Deadbeats who haven’t worked in years also benefitted, as Obama issued an executive order to increase welfare benefits for those already sucking on the government t*t (I suppose this benefitted black people disportionately, but really, the one thing that I don’t want from any president is more free stuff for welfare bums.)
Who have the losers been under Obama? Most anyone that falls into the “working poor” or “middle class” classifications, or put another way, most of us.
me112233, Somehow I always know! You’re white aren’t you?
some folks simply can not handle the truth!!!
Due to President Obama being the first Black president and the racism he encountered for being Black, I can live with giving the first Black president in U.S history a pass for 4 years with an understanding that political decsions were made to win a second term.
In addition as a black man, I don’t want to see the white racist succeed in making the first Black president a one term president, ESPECIALLY after giving White presidents 300 years of doing the same.
Nothing wrong with criticizing President Obama, just make sure you vote after your criticism to keep the racist teabaggers from rescinding all civil right laws, choosing the next two supreme court judges to approve laws to send us back to the plantations as cotton pickers to improve that black employment rate.
We will know the real Obama in the second term. Give him the same opportunity given to those white presidents. We know from history that presidents have the liberty to do whatever they want in there second term because decisions are no longer political.
Ask yourself, why do white people hate President Obama so much and want him out of the White House? Last time I checked, white people love black man who work against black people ie. Hermain Cain, Judge Thomas, Allen West etc.
Lets keep it simple, if President Obama is doing nothing for Black people, why do they hate him and want him out!
Ok what has gone well for black people under Obama, are we so rapped up in race that we cannot or will not say hey you are not doing a good job for black people or anyone else. It took Obama a year to meet with the CBC he met the hispnic carsus the first year. Judge by performance not race. Black people would do better with a business man running the country because we would know where we stood and could not feel sorry for ourselves.
You say: Black people would do better with a business man running the country because we would know where we stood and could not feel sorry for ourselves.
Like most sell out Negroes who know it’s makes no sense to support a racist party who openly demean black people, you cannot even say Romney’s name or the Republican party in your post. Because you’re too embarrassed, you speak in code by saying we need a business man!
Shut the front door, get the h**l out of here!
@Raheem, my man I’ve come to the conclusion that everyone that post negative comments about the President are just white racist and bigots trying desperately to confuse Black people and hopefully divert some votes to Romney. I’ve come to this conclusion because Black people really can’t be this stupid to think they would be better off with anyone other than this President. Black people can’t be stupid enough to think they’re worse off under Obama than any other President. Black people can’t be stupid enough to think you can draw any comparison between the Black community, the Hispanic community or the LGBT community. Black people can’t be that stupid to think that the President can get any bill or law passed that will directly affect African-Americans. Black people just aren’t that stupid; maybe ignorant as to just how politics work but they just can’t be that stupid.
@james
You’re not alone in your fight to educate these paid, white troll devils on here creating confustion to suppress the vote. Like my mother would say, God is always in control. President Obama is the most disrespected, mistreated president in the history of this country and he still leads in the polls. God is good, all the time! Keep speaking the truth, you’re in the majority!
Once again, the Republican Party is NOT a racist party. If you believe differently, you simply do not know your history. I find it totally amazing how 95%+ of black people are democrats, when it is the democrats that were the perpetrators of virtually all bad things ever done to blacks throughout our history in this nation. From slavery, to the KKK, to Jim Crow, to poll taxes and “literacy” tests, to murders but no convictions, to modern-day welfare and housing projects, it was/is all done to us by democrats. Don’t look now, but there is no Republican-run city in the nation that has an environment where black men/kids are dying in the streets on a daily basis.
@me112233, why are you being so stupid? Use your common sense and judge where things are today. This s**t you’re talking about that happened over a 100 years ago doesn’t apply to anything happening today. 95& of Black people are Democrats because it’s the Democrats that have shown any compassion for Black people in the last 100 years. I’m not saying all Democrats are good and I’m not saying all Republicans are bad. It really isn’t about being a Democrat or Republican in this election. Barack Obama is a Democrat and he is just absolutely more qualified than his Republican opponent. George W. Bush is probably more to blame for the number of Black Democrats than anyone or anything. It’s more about Barack Obama for Black people and it should be. The man is great: he’s the perfect role model for all Black males which is why he’s so hated by white people and Uncle Tom n*****s.
@me112233, Yep! And I’m a billionaire. I know this much: The Republican Party has been straight out racist since Richard M. Nixon’s Southern Strategy, he saw a opening to get more whites into the Party by addressing their racism and insecurity about losing white privileges. Reagan sealed the deal with his ‘Welfare Queens” rhetorics and other racist code words topped off with opening his second bid for president at Philadelphia, Miss. The three Civil Rights Freedom Fighters were killed there.
Modern conservatism began its ascendance in the late 1960s as a white backlash to the Civil Rights Movement, black power protests and urban riots.
Conservatives oppose government policies and programs that hint at the redistribution of public and private resources and power to benefit backs.
Black people were Republican (party of Lincoln and all that) until the Democrats gave them Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson who signed the Voter Rights Bill. I think that Bill did a lot to advance blacks. Even thought some are letting you (a white) persuade them not to vote.
Blind followers that’s all it boils down to. That’s why Romney felt comfortable in saying he was not worried about the other 47% because they think we are all programmed to think the same way and for the most part they are right. That’s why we’re so easily controlled, destroyed and docile when time has called for us now more than ever to be active. Each candidate is hand-picked for a reason. They have analysts that study the behavior of people and the movements of black folk is not a hard one because we have become so predictable as a collective….Sad!
You hit the nail on the head. What Romney said was certainly inartful, but he was basically correct. Everybody knows that a Republican is wasting his time trying to win certain voter blocks, black people being one of those blocks; so the Republicans focus on getting votes of groups that show a historical willingness to be won over. 95% of blacks voted for Obama last time, despite the fact that a great number of black people do not actually agree with Obama’s political philosphies. I’m thinking Herman Cain was right when he made his now infamous “brainwashed” comment.
Romney could be the best thing that ever happened to the black community (OK, maybe not the best thing, but humor me for a moment) . . . . I believe Romney will create a business environment that will put America back to work, and that is THE thing we need. Obama has proven that he cannot put America back to work; in fact, Obama’s “stimulus” program that was supposed to put us back to work actually made things worse.
Raheem, I agree with what you said. I knew this last four years for Obama would be tough and understand what African Americans expected would happen when he became president. These people complaining now in the middle of an election gets me really mad. If you want Mitt Romney for president then vote for him and see what happens. Mr. Obama deserves a second term.
Debra
Debra, I will be voting for Romney. No, Romney isn’t the absolute best person on the planet. But I truly believe he will be far better than Obama, and since my choices are bascially Romney or Obama, I choose Romney.
@me112233
I respect your decision to vote for Romney. At least you’re not afraid to say it, if you’re really black. My only suggestion to you, make sure you toughen those hands up because you will need it when Romney send your black a*s back to the cotton fields. Good luck Toby, I guess they beat that Kunta out of you! lol
He walks a tightrope being Black and the President of the United States. Any Black person who has worked in a primarily white environment knows that you are under greater scrutiny than your white counterpart. I agree with the young lady that spoke earlier. What kind of deals do you expect Romney to cut you? He doesn’t want to help even his own people, unless their rich.
Romney is a businessman. Businessmen look at a problem, figure out a solution, then implement it. Businessmen aren’t warm and fuzzy; they are logical. Here’s the good news — Romney has proven great success. It is true that Obama has a fantastic charizma factor, and can charm a crowd. The question is this — do you want a charmer or do you want someone who can actually get the job done?
@me112233, you are definitely white or you’re the most brainwashed Uncle Tom Negro of all time. First of all; you don’t know anything about Romney as a businessman other than what he and his administration have lied about. The only thing Romney has going for him is that he White. If Obama were White this wouldn’t even be a contest, and if Romney were Black his a*s would have been laughed out of this race long ago…i.e Herman Cain. I can respect you as a White person wanting to vote for Romney because he’s White; that you’re a racist and a bigot; but at least have the guts to admit it; but trying to come up with a valid reason to vote for him because you think he’s more qualified than Obama is just bullshit.
He didn’t do so good with implementing his business acuity in Mass. Read the report. He had one plus billion dollars to do the fair. A novice should have been able to correct its faults with all of that money.
His business implementation did a lot of good for him and his family with Bain Capital. He had so much he could put a lot of it in bank accounts in the Cayman Island, and I believe Switzerland to avoid paying taxes, of course.
Some person you have chosen to be your president. Good luck with that.
Raheem!! You knock that out the park with what you wrote…It is so,so true! Peter Burke you are so right too.Both of you said it all.
Things understood need not be explained. With that being said, allow me to make it plain, every President has to deal with the concerns of the NEGRO in America. It comes with the job, it’s known as an occupational hazard ( hope I spelled that right).
I will and we must re-elect the President, call him the less of two evils, call him what you choose to call him, but VOTE FOR HIM and a Democratic House and Senate.
Take it from the URBAN TRANSLATOR, I was at the 2012 Congressional Black Caucus, as I was leaving BWI going to a freind’s house I saw, it was late in the evening, I this white marbel building, people told me that it was a Morman Church, I said man that nice, then I saw and heard Rumney speak in that Video. I was lake man thereis no way we can let that man get elected.
Yes, i agree with the gIst of the artcle, a black President should not be given a free ride,
We should be his most ardous critics. We are his most diehart supporters. We are the Inmature ones, we gave him our money and our vote. We and we alone must demand like other interest groups, our stake in the benefits of the democracy. The baby that cries is the one that get’s the attention. The sqeaky wheel get’s the grease.
I love my brother, but he too must repay me for my effort to help him. There is a quid pro quo or a payback for every good deed. Why lobbyist demand a seat at the table. We meed a seat also.
Okay Earl I’ll bite. What exactly can or should the President do for you that would make you shut up?
I voted for President Obama in ’08 and I will be voting for him in ’12. I DID NOT vote for him because I felt that he would have “THE ANSWER” to all that problems we face: I Voted for him because I felt that he would not HURT us, as did RWReagan and GWBush. I did not want a president for BLACK AMERICA——I wanted a president for ALL AMERICA. When FDR was asked why he did not do something to “help the coloreds” his response was ” A rising tide lifts all boats” referring to government assistance programs during the Depression. The one thing that FRD could have and SHOULD have done something about was pressing for an anti-lynching law, which he failed to do. That was far more important than ANY government assistance program and his failure to do so was linked to his dependence on Southern members of Congress, many of whom wee unabashed RACISTS.
And that’s the problem!!!
Black people stop being blind and stupid if though 400yrs of oppression was’nt enough for you,now you talking about wait 4 more years on someone who never said he would do anything for you in the first place like he did for gays and Latinos.stop being foolish and open your mouth to this president,your people are suffuring more than anyone else.just because those of us demand more to help stop the suffering doesn’t mean we’d rather have Romney in the whitehouse.if you and your spouses disagreed on something’s does that mean you’ll dump them and get someone else.
What the f*** has the President done for the Gay’s and Latino’s? Somebody, anybody please tell me what the President has done for the Latino’s and Gay’s that Black people continue to bring up. What the F*** is it because I follow politics and the President and I haven’t seen s**t other than say he’s agrees with gay and lesbian marriage and that Latino’s can stay in this country if they don’t commit crimes. Now if I’m missing something, please somebody tell me.
This president has made you kick God to the curb and except gay as righteous
James,
In the future, before you reply to a post in such an ignorant way— please take a moment, log on to google and do a little research.
TWO CENTS: The Black community has always been a blindly loyal race of people. We accept people for who they are and forgive anyone while being screwed. The African American president of the United States does not identify with Black Americans. His origin and/or experiences are not the same as that of a Black American. His ancestors did come to this country in shackles, it was to pursue of an advanced college degree. The African American president is the lesser of two evils. He is not going to save the day.
It really depresses me to see that someone with the same first name as mine can be so utterly misinformed,ignorant and downright stupid.
Forgive me, that comment was for you Judy.
Sometimes, timing is everything, and now is NOT the TIME to show republicans that President Obama appears not too have done enough for African Americans when Our Votes may not count on, 11/6/12 because of blatant voter suppression!! CBC talk about what you plan to do about this serious issue before US and not the First time this Country voted An African American into the Oval Office and he “did’nt do this, and he did’nt do that”… For the love of Pete, help the people whose votes will be suppressed in less than 5 weeks.
How can the cbc [Coons Being Caucasoids] say something about O’Drama when they’re not doing a d**n thang for Black people?
ALL of these negroids are in the same pot! NONE of these un-organizations are gonna help Black people…period! These Boule’ negroids are hired by the government to do just what they’re doing now…NOTHING!!!
O’Drama was ‘hired’ to do what he’s doing now…letting in these foreign ‘strangers’, which are the NEW SLAVES! They are getting the government loans, so they can open up their businesses, the government is giving them a break on oil; this is why they OWN the gas stations, and the government gave the asians their reparations, and this is why they OWN all the beauty and barber supply stores!!!
WE ARE GETTING PLAYED; AND ALL OF THESE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS ARE GEARED TO HELP THESE FOREIGN STRANGERS, WHO CONTINUE TO USURP OUR COMMUNITIES ALL OVER THE unuted snakes!!!
DEUTERONOMY 28:43-44 reads: “The STRANGER that is within thee shall get up ABOVE thee very high; and THOU shalt come down very LOW; 44 reads: “He shall LEND to to thee, and thou SHALT NOT LEND to him; he shall be the HEAD, and thou shalt be the TAIL.”
NO FURTHER EVIDENCE IS NEEDED!!!
I don’t feel like the President of CBS speaks for all African Americans. I can’t understand how people put so much faith in a President as if he is a King or God. He is not the President of Black America. Why is there an assumption that he is responsible for giving a voice to everything. I do not agree with all of his policies or decisions but I understand politics. As an African American man, I understand the struggle for equality more than anyone. Yes, African American’s are unemployed but so are other races. What does the President of CBS recommend the President say or do? To suggest that he gets a pass because he is black is crazy! I have never looked at any President and put my life in his hands. Take responsiblity for yourself and do what you have to do. Go back to school and get a degree to put yourself in a better position to be hired. If you don’t like your situation, do something about it. I’m just saying – as African Americans, we have a lot of programs already in place to help us. Learn about them and take advantage.
Well stated Aaron!
@Aaron:
You meant to say CBC; not CBS!!! NO BLACKS own CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, FOX, HEADLINE NEWS, OR ANY OTHER CHANNEL!!!
BUT, he really is a CBS:

Okay@! I disaggree with @Peter. So you can Use Presidental Political Capital, ie…. to Appoint a hispanic Supreme Court Justice, Give Amnesty to So-Called UnDocumented Teenage Hispanics, Abolished Dont Ask Dont Tell, Publicly Stated he has no Problem with Gay Marriage. Yet, Addressing Immediate Needs of Black People is a Political Risk….. To High To Make?! Peace@!
Oh my word here we go again! I guess we colored folk are our worst enemy. WHY on earth does everyone (not just white people) assume that we “colored folk” can only vote for Obama BECAUSE HE IS BLACK?! I don’t expect nothing more or less from Obama because he IS BLACK! Please spare me the rhetoric. I actually agree with alot of his policies! Or can we colored folk even dare read or understand anything beyond his color. THIS FOOLERY is insulting and its getting OLD FAST!! I made my way and will help any of my ppl whenever or however I can. We never sat back waiting on a president to do it! We got out there and got it done. It’s a SAD DAY when we now want to sit on our hands and wait on a government to FIX IT! Please stop with this FOOLERY I am sick and TIRED OF IT PERIOD!
Some very intelligent replies here – refreshing to see!
Wow. The comments on here are sad. Do you want Obama to be judged as the President or the Black President. Stop giving him a pass. What has he done to be reelected? Is the economy better? How is the unemployment rate?
Look at how he is acting regarding the Middle East. Judge him on these things. Stop focusing on his skin color. Go and do some research on Obama;the people he aligned himself with. Why does his skin color trump everything else. And calling people racist or sellouts for disagreeing with Obama shows how brainwashed people are.
@michelle, get your white a*s outta here. The s**t you’re talking about was here long before Obama got into office. Black people have been suffering in this country over 400 years but you want Obama to end it in four.
Thank You sister!!!
I have to be honest, I voted for Obama because he was African American. As a Black woman, I did not think he was qualifed for the position. I believed then as I believe now, that Hillary Clinton would have made a better president. I only started to really consider him when Bill and Hillary began to act like racist white people because Obama was picking up speed. Otherwise I was not interested in voting for Obama at all. I believe with all of me that the majority of Black folk voted for Obama because he has brown skin. I would feel differently if they were not always defending him without full consideration of his record.
Sick of you complainers. Tell the cbc or whoever wrote this to start working for their people at home and help their own Black Communities and stop sending all of the funds to the white community. Watch the CBC traders. Look at all the people you elect and hold them responsible not just the president. Stop feeling sorry for yourself unite and start businesses and support each other. I love you all and God loves you too. Pray and Vote Please watch and follow the money that is sent in and check ou who benifits from it.
People just need to leave Obama alone. Bad enough we have racist white folks d*****g him–now we have Negroes jumping on the bash-Obama bandwagon…let’s see what y’all do if massa Romney gets elected–see if he gives a s–t when y’all go cryin’ to him…leave Barack alone…
People act like they want Obama to solve all of the world’s problems. People didn’t demand this of Clinton, Bush, etc, so why is Obama held to such a high and unrealistic standard? I didn’t hear this much complaining when Bush was president, and in my opinion he was a much worse president of Obama. Let’s not forget, Obama is fighting a hostile Republikkkan congress who has opposed him every step of the way–their state goal was to make Obama a ‘one-term president’… So, if you are not going to demand perfection from white presidents, you shouldn’t do it for Obama either…just sayin’
How do know what people said about other prez.you probably never paid attention to what they said because you was’nt so head over hills about them like you are about this president
You all need to leave the President alone, What ever good deed he is knock down by the Republicans,know matter what; and another thing he is Black and White,thats what they don’t like. I am voting for Obama because I am a Democrat.
All of a sudden everybody want’s to be an authority on the Black Community wnen in reality none of them know s**t. Where was all this s**t talking when Bush was in office? This notion that Obama owes you something just because you voted for him is just “n****r s**t”. Stop listening to these so-called educated leaders (who are the worst kinds of s**t) and use common sense. These A**holes do not give a s**t about the you or the Black community, they want attention and too get paid. Stop looking and hoping for 40 acres and a mule and reparations; that s**t ain’t coming, you need to get over it.
Amen, brother!
he should not get a free pass…..regardless,he should be held at least partially accountable to his core constiuency…which…was/is people of color…..
Isn’t universal healthcare for everyone helping black people? The Republikkkans fought with him even on that–calling it ‘Obamacare”…there were other job training and education bills Obama tried to get through that would have helped a LOT of black folk–the Republikkkans fought him on that…what do u want the man to do—he can only do so much…what we REALLY need to do is to vote these racist Republikkkans out of office…
You’ll just get the crumbs of it all after others get theirs
We Want An Executive Order……….It Worked for hispanic UnDocumented Teenagers.?! I’m Just Saying.
Recent comments are liars and I hate liars !!! Be Careful who you lie on because they have been entertaining ANGELS.
I have to agree with James A’s comment about blacks can’t be “that stupid”, maybe ignorant about how the political system really works. The problem is that “we” (black folk) assume that the Congressional Black Caucus knows how to work the political system when in reality they have demonstrated their ineptitude about “working behind the scenes” in Congress. If issues affecting the black community in critical-mass is a major concern for these CBC members, and they have a “black” president who has the power of the “bully pulpit” to work the American people at the ‘front-end’, then they should coordinate their efforts to address these critical issues affecting the black community. The black members of Congress should be “lobbying” their fellow members for their support in exchange for support of their issues/sponsored legislation. Two objectives meeting in the middle to accomplish a common-goal for equality, prosperity and opportunity. The real let-down is the unsavvy political ‘know-how’ of the CBC to get things done effectively for their black consituency, but as usual, we always find someone else to cast blame upon for our own shortcomings!In this case, the President of the United States Barack Obama.
All of these people making these claims are idiot, and do not get it. He is the President of THE United States, not just the Black or Hispanic Community, and a lot of the things he wants to do helps “all”, yet the Republicans have basically sat on their hands, shaking their heads, no, no, no, no matter what he tries to do, just to carry forth their agenda of making him a one term President, BECAUSE heis Black, whereas it is US the Voters who decide who is President.And Mitt Romney will do nothing for anybody but the Wealthy. He claims that at Bain Capital they created American jobs. Just lasy week, in Wisconsin there was either a Senator or Congressman (Republican), that held a Town Hall Meeting. There was a man there that works for a Subsidiary of Bain Capital for thirty three years, and he and one hundred an sixty niine other employees are about to lose their jobs, because they are shipping their jobs to China, and get this, they are going to do this AFTER the Elections. The man just asked if this guy supported Legislation removing Tax cuts for American Companies that do this exact same thing, and rather than answer the question, his Aides told the man they were “calling the authorities”, and the guy just walked OUT of the meeting. Why would you call the Police for a man that respectfully asked a legitimate question, and I knowthis is accurate because the article had a video clip of the incident attached. Ridiculous.
I amy be rong, but I do beleve that sum of my brothers an sisters would vote for a munkey if it was black. This half breed has all of yall fooled. You will be eating out of a garbage can if he wins. Do not ax me how I know. This is what is said on the skreets.
You need to get you uneducated, illerates azz back where you came from. I know the rats down there in the sewer really miss you.
Seriously? The Chair of tje CBC doesn’t realise what the job of the President of the whole United Staes is? We ain’t talking president of the NAACP here
We need at Least One Strong Black Senator, with Filabuster Power. That’s ironic that we had Two Black Senators, during The Reconstruction Period (after The Civil War)…..and Now We have None. Yet The hispanic Community has Four@. Go Figure!
Do We Have Any Black Senators, on The Ballot for The American General Election of 2012@????????? I Guess i should Google It@.
Guess what I Googled Black U.S. Senate Candidate. There was a Candidate for U.S. Senate, Out of Maryland a well respected Brother. Until he ran for The U.S. Senate. Eventhough he was a Loyal Democrat, he was Blocked for Speaking to gain The Major Endorsements of Other Democrat Leaders. The Brother’s Name is State Senator Anthony Muse. Check The Link if You Can@! Peace Everyone!

President Obama did help the Black farmer’s get something, so we can’t say he has completely ignored us.
I’m critical of the President and his interaction (or lack thereof) with us and concern for our issues. And because I voted for him in 08 and will be voting for him again in November, I’ll continue to criticize him if I feel there’s something to criticize him on. HOWEVER, I agree with whoever said we have to stop looking at him and people like him to help and just help ourselves.
The government has rarely been interested in helping us do anything and what we’ve known for a long time about a lot of Black politicians (not all but I would say most) is that they are politicians just like all the other politicians. President Obama is afflicted with a racist congress that comes up against ANYTHING he wants to accomplish. He’s also afflicted with a Black population who is so scared of being perceived as Uncle Toms/crabs in a barrel/haterz by others or even themselves that they refuse to be human and treat this president like he’s human and it’s hard for him to do the best job he can under those circumstances.
Btw, some of ya’ll acting like we have overcome. Did I miss something???
In the end the best thing for us to do is vote for Obama again (because he is DEFINITELY the better option) and let him do whatever it is he’s going to do or not going to do. It’s apparent that we can’t control him so why worry about what we can’t control? What we can control are those things that have been pointed out already, like taking control of our children, our education, etc. And whomever doesn’t want to be a part of fixing what’s wrong with our community can go kick rocks…and that includes our President.
SMDH…Ahhhhhhhhhh!
In addition to being the chair of the Congressional Black Caucus (what Exactly have they done for African Americans?), Emanuel Cleaver II (another SO CALLED minister) has been in Congress (House of Representatives) since 2005, and if he and the rest of Congress would stop acting like children on a playground, maybe President Obama could do something about unemployment for Everyone!
Not mention when you live in a glass house, you really shouldn’t throw stones! I understand in Missouri Cleaver is known as a “Deadbeat Congressman”. He and his wife owe Bank of America $1.5 mil for a “20 YEAR LOAN” they took out in 2002 for a PERSONAL car wash business. And he’s talking about what President Obama hasn’t done in his term of “4 YEARS” dealing with a bunch of Idiots (Congress) who can’t think their way out of the dark. Cleaver and his wife can’t pay the loan, so now I guess they won’t the “Unemployed” tax payers to foot the bill. If he’s Really a minister, he needs to be seeking guidance about his own affairs and stop worrying about the President.

I bet we see a different Barack Obama in his second term. He wont have anything to lose. I think you will see him taking Black issues a lot more seriously … what does he have to lose?
I said it before, and I’ll say it again, this Black Blue Dog group, are nothing but white tea party republicans, with some black stooges. They are trying to get black people to either not vote, or vote republican. Do you see anybody trying to suppress the white vote, or tell white people not to vote? If they were to tell a white person that they needed to dig their grandmother out of the ground to prove their voter eligibility, or told them not to vote, there would be a rebellion, or a civil war. But, when they do this to black people, we allow them to suppress our vote, and actually entertain the thought of not voting.Some of you a******s have the nerve to complain about the white man controlling you, and yet you let him tell you whether you can vote, or whether you should vote or not.
Some of us are the most dumbest people, that has ever lived on this planet, and no amount of enlightenment, or education will eradicate that. So lay on your sorry a***s, and don’t vote, but when those republicans, cut your Pell grants, medical assistance, housing assistance, and start incarcerating those of you that use alternate means to survive, that the fault lies on you. If you are dissatisfied with both parties, vote for a third party, but don’t let anyone tell you not to vote. There are billions of people in other countries, that would die to be able to come to this country, and have the right to vote. You just don’t know how lucky you are to have the right to vote, until you lose it.
I so agree. Hold the CBC responsible. Again I say when funding comes in
these same people do not help the black community. Federal money misused by loca officials. Keep an eye on your local people. You will find out they take federal money and help whites only. Pray and Notice
The black middle class has been decimated during this recession. We were blamed for the housing market crash. Much was said about our inability to read the fine print on predatory mortgage agreements, but truth be told banks preyed on our desire to own a home, since so much has been said about home ownership and the acquiring of wealth. It would have been an act of courage for the President to have simply spoken about red-lining, high interest mortgages, and how these actions have kept the country segregated. The black community has every right to advocate for specific political favor, now is the best time to do so
All I would like to see is what thurgood Marshall said and that is to attackwhite power in the courts. Janet Reno popped these racist hiring and employment practices and the Justice Sept has been slow to act. And I and some other Prof people have been feeling the racism bad. We have filed complaints with the Eeoc and we are still waiting on a decision. My sis did get her right to sue letter. If Eric Holder popped these companies for their practices, that would really help black folks, legally and Obama would not take the hits.

We keep talking about giving the President another four years, then he will be in a better position to address our issues. Peter if you have the highest unemployment rate than any other group which mean your group is adding less to the economic recovery of the nation wouldn’t you think that group situation would need some special attention. After all it is the economy! I fail to see how that’s asking to much of a President that received 93% of your votes. Speaking of second terms did you know that there are 21 democratic Senate seats up for reelection and only 8 Republican, he might be a lame DUCK if he gets a second term.
….Barack Obama has been and continues to be a disgrace to the office the entire time he has held office. I’m U.S. born, black, from the inner-city and with good reason I won’t be voting for Barack “the Magic Negro/Food Stamp President/Illegal Alien Kiss a*s” Obama!

Leadership Statement on the 25th Amendment
“The combined effect of our national disintegration, and the lack of calm, reasonable leadership in our institutions, is in many cases becoming too great a stress for many to carry. We see it most clearly in our babbling president, who is obviously losing it. The reality is, we are destroying ourselves; so the question becomes, how will we deal with that reality?” by Kesha Rogers
Indeed Kesha Rogers, and for the same reason and more BO is a disgrace to the office.
CNN i-Report: President Barack Obama…the Statute of Liberty, the U.S. Constitution, the 14th Amendment is for the Benefit of U.S. Citizens and Legal Immigrants and not Illegal Immigrants and Anchor Babies!
It is really disappointing to read some of these comments. In 2012 we still can not see past color. I find it ironic that some of you will say in one breath that you wish to be treated equally and fairly and seen as indivduals in the professional world but in a another breath make ignorant comments such as, ‘the President should do more to help the black community.’ First we will NEVER be seen as individuals that are more than the color of our skins because many of us can’t get past color ourselves! Really? Do you hear yourselves? This President owes YOU more because he’s black. Has it occured to anyone that this line of thought is no different than a supervisor holding you to different standard than your white counterparts because YOUR black. How can you clear in conscious demand to be treated equally than turn around and do the same thing to the President? None of the things he has accomplished in Office for ALL people matter or are considered valid because he’s not pushing enough iniatives for African Americans?? Are you kidding? When will people realize that ‘black issues’ are AMERICAN issues!! A good education, fair employment, be it equal pay for women or lower income taxes for middle class workers and healthcare are issues that have no color!! Civil Rights aren’t just for blacks! A vialation of civil rights to anyone is danger to us all! These issues effect us all. @cublktigrress honey I can not allow miss information of this nature to go uncorrected! 47% Romney was referring to are people who don’t have incomes those are people with disabilities, senior citizens, and people who are displaced and unemployed due to the economy that crashed under Bush and our President inherited (the last I checked I have income, and pay MORE taxes than Mr. Romney and I am a supporter of the President).
Do you think the white policeman see past your color?

“Black People are too Ignorant” by ForTheRepubl1c on Oct 7, 2011
…..Since Barack Obama has held office he has disrespected and continues to show contempt for U.S. born black men, women, etc.,etc.
1. In 2008, on Father’s Day before a predominately black church congregation Barack Obama talked down to black men as being unfit fathers……and this was done by Barack Obama to placate Caucasians to win over the Caucasian votes……, talking down to black men while BO does absolutely nothing to uphold his sworn duty as an elected official to uphold the Constitution in behalf of law abiding black men and women violated by rogue police officers, unethical City prosecutors, no good Clarence Thomas……BO and the Congressional Black Clueless have the power to recommend that Clarence Thomas be impeached, and these charlatons/pseudo leaders won’t even use his or her influence to do this.
You Tube video: “A conversation between President Obama and the black community” Published on Jun 7, 2012 by drboycewatkins.
2. …..not to mention “stop complaining, put on your marching shoes, etc., etc.” worthless rhetoric when petitioned to use his influence improve the quality of life in the black community, to create work opportunity, address and reduce the high unemployment rate of black men and women…..
3……Singing an Al Green song in Harlem….to pacify black men and women, rather than serve them.
4. Stepping up to the plate to serve and represent illegal aliens, individuals to whom he is not mandated by the U.S. Constitution (the Supreme Law of the U.S.) and sworn under oath to serve.
5. Bailing out individuals and corporations who are already wealthy at the expense of taxpayers dollars, which is also contributing to the 16 trillion dollar deficit…….while claiming that he is an advocate of the working class.
6. Other disgraceful acts too numerous to mention here, to prove the BO needs to go, and tomorrow would not be too soon.
….it is amazing that so many black people continue to support and praise for BO…when BO doesn’t give a rat’s a*s about the Black community.

Has it occured to anyone that this line of thought is no different than a supervisor holding you to different standard than your white counterparts because YOUR black. How can you clear in conscious demand to be treated equally than turn around and do the same thing to the President? None of the things he has accomplished in Office for ALL people matter or are considered valid because he’s not pushing enough iniatives for African Americans?? Are you kidding? When will people realize that ‘black issues’ are AMERICAN issues!! A good education, fair employment, be it equal pay for women or lower income taxes for middle class workers and healthcare are issues that have no color!! Civil Rights aren’t just for blacks! A vialation of civil rights to anyone is danger to us all! These issues effect us all. @cublktigrress honey I can not allow miss information of this nature to go uncorrected! 47% Romney was referring to are people who don’t have incomes those are people with disabilities, senior citizens, and people who are displaced and unemployed due to the economy that crashed under Bush and our President inherited (the last I checked I have income, and pay MORE taxes than Mr. Romney and I am a supporter of the President).” by Linda33

Although the U.S. is a mixture of ethnic groups, the very nature of government is that of a Democratic Republic….meaning “Equal Justice and Protection Under the Law, Constitution protections, etc., etc., only come from competent representation……competent representation from individual of the same heritage, ethnicity……..which is especially the case where much is at stake as it concerns a major monetary court settlement, suing for redress of grievances, etc., etc.
Hispanic lawyers, elected officials, etc., etc., don’t beat around the bush as to who their primary interest in representing are, …namely the Hispanic community….this not to say, that these individuals refuse or won’t represent blacks….it is just not an Hispanic leader’s first calling or duty to serve blacks, Koreans, the Chinese, Caucasians, etc., etc., before stepping up to the plate to serve his, her, or their Hispanic community. The same can said for any other ethnic group.
If our own U.S. born black leaders refuse to competently serve U.S. born blacks, it is not in the best interest of Caucasians, Koreans, Hispanics, Filipos, Jews, illegal immigrants from Mexico, Haiti, Nigeria, Kenya, China, etc., to be the first to step up to the plate to improve the quality of life in any other community but his or her own.
Black leaders, such Barack “the Magic Negro” Obama, multiple members of the Congressional Black Clueless…..AKA the Congressional Black Caucus, other pseudo black leaders, our dysfunctional and treasonous representing trailer trash Linsay Lohan sellout black lawyers, the NAACP, our own worthless sacrilegious sleazy preachers are the only group of leaders/misfits who bend over backwards to serve any and every other community but the black community….which also explains to a great degree why the black community is the most unrepresented, misrespresented, void of competent leadership, poverty stricken, government dependent, scarcity of private business investment community in the U.S.

It’s interesting that as soon as the point that Obama has done next to nothing for Black folk as he has for others, and that he should do something specifically for us as he has for other groups is raised, folk erroneously interpret that fact as a demand for him to EXCLUSIVELY look out for Blacks. Cognitive dissonance at its best, so as to set up a straw argument. I get it. I’ve NEVER heard anyone say that he should EXCLUSIVELY cater to Blacks. And if there are such persons, they would be in the minority. That aside, what’s also contradictory of many Obama fans is the fact that these same people who claim he’s the President of EVERYBODY and not just black folk tend to imply that support of him is a litmus of Blackness, itself, because they often brand honest critics as “negroes” or imply that they are “self-hating.” How can this be if Obama is the prez of EVERYONE and not JUST BLACKS? I’d like to know of just three strong and top of mind (meaning they’re actually being implemented/worked on RIGHT NOW) policy positions or even personal positions that specifically address BLACK FOLK, the same as labor, Jewish, lbgtq, Hispanic, feminist, etc. groups that would merit our support of this president. NOT “trickle-down” stuff. Specifics.
Ka’ba I could’nt have said it better
Thanks, Mackj. And, of course, folks will have to do some serious google searches to find something (which is problematic in and of itself because that means that they don’t have any reasons that they could rattle off right away, which should be the case for anyone who so adamantly supports a politician or cause). Others will just ignore that altogether and continue to echo Obama and tell Blacks to “stop whining, stop complaining” and just vote for him. Ironic that they think he’s better than the repubs, but when Obama’s called to account, they go into the repub playbook and start “whining” and “complaining” and blaming Blacks for ALL or almost all of our problems by implementing the same “bootstraps” arguments used by conservatives and THEIR negro syncophants. Polytricks is a trip!
It reminds me of a story Anne Moody tells in her autobiography “Coming of Age In Mississippi” where the white lady she works for casually asks Anne what she would think of going to the white school. Anne tells her she wouldn’t mind it if all of the white kids were like the white woman’s son and his friends, who were nice to her. Anne explained that she knew all white kids were not nice and that would make it difficult to attend school with them. Her boss got angry. “SO YOU’RE SAYING YOU WANNA GO TO SCHOOL WITH THEM!” and she storms out of the room. She didn’t hear a word the girl said, she just read into it what she wanted to.
That’s what I see so much of in the comment sections of articles about the president. I don’t believe I’ve read one post where anyone has even hinted at the president working for us exclusively. And while there have been posts where people have said outright that they will not vote for him or at all in November, they’re usually pretty straight forward and to the point. You can’t mistake what that person’s point is. But somehow someone who criticizes the president for whatever reason, even though NOWHERE in the post does it say I’M NOT VOTING, some genius inevitably accuses that person of saying just that. Comments about wanting attention by the President of the United States is somehow met with accusations of wanting him to focus ALL of his attention on us, even though no comment has even hinted at such a rediculous idea. I’m thinking it’s time for a mass class on comprehension because some of you adults are sorely lacking those skills.

Black People suffer because they are victimized by self.Black males have refused to take charge in their own neighborhoods. They have let the Hispanics in to suck billions of dollars a year out of the neighborhoods with those corner stores. I am Black and I really get tired of hearing Blacks whining all the time. No other ethnic group has come here and whined. They come here and move into the Black community and exploit Blacks. They move up economically and the Black community get poorer. Integration has been the downfall of Blacks. Instead of wanting to compete with other ethnic groups through economics,they chose to stay attached to slave master. Why should Obama feel sorry for them? Blacks had chances in this country just like the come lately ethnic groups, however Blacks chose to p**s it away. Please stop whining Black People.
@Caz Perry: “Integration has been the downfall of Blacks.”
======================================================
I have been saying this ever since, MLK started this INTEGRATION b.s.! ALL of these foreigners and strangers in our communities have caused this DIVISION and SELF-HATE amongst some of our people, due to King’s integration policies. WE NOW SEE, WHO HAVE PROSPERED FROM THIS B.S.
You have negroids, who love to go give their money to their enemies, while they neglect their own kind. A negroid told me, he ain’t gonna help no negro get rich; therefore, he runs to these arabs, asians, chili chokers, and those racist people from india.
This is what INTEGRATION and RE-LIGION did to the negro…BRAINWASHED THEM! It’s amazing how these foreigners and strangers can drive their NEW cars and trucks, and park them in front of their businesses, but a Black man has to walk to their establishments to help pay THEIR car notes!!!
Back in the day…Blacks OWNED everythang these strangers have, in our communities and MORE! Today, it’s the opposite, and these strangers take OUR MONEY, and send it back to their countries TO HELP THEIR PEOPLE; while our people in Afrika continue to STARVE and DIE, while these same strangers are killing them and usurping their lands.
YOU HAVE THE POST OF THE DAY!!!
Right on D. Also, the main purpose of the President is to run the military, negotiate treaties, and act as a figure head for the capitalist structure. If any of you all can get the chance, read this great book ” History of the Great American Fortunes” by Gustavus Meyers and get a clear understanding why economically, things are just the way they are. The book is 1000 pages but its the Genesis of how and who started the ” value system” and how their wealth was created. The president can’t hire one person, he can’t open one factory or biz, but he can surely use the ” bully pulpit( for my fellow POLS majors)” and truly push an agenda that will help ALL of American( not just gays, my Latino brothas( can’t fault them though, they know if u want something in this country, u have to TAKE IT!!!)). Ask the Italian community, if u want something you have to take it( Europeans know about that also). We had a chance in the 60′s and 70′s to take what we wanted when this White devil was wounded( from the war on civil rights) and we did nothing but want to integrate. Funny, the Asians I know remember the camps in Hawaii after WW2 and that’s why they got their reparations, then they began to buy up everything they could to have a solid foundation economically in the world( not just here!!) We on the other hand, were just happy with a better title( director,Foreman, Supervisor, vice-president etc- instead of owner, nation builder) and a Cadillac( now a Mercedes). Who do you work for black people? I’ve been telling my younger relatives that when they get out of college, do what other worldly people do and go elsewhere and work( like China, Sweden, Germany, Singapore( had one of the fastest growing GDP”S /PMI’s) and get money from others from around the world. h**l that’s what my b***h Mitt does.

I agree with your comment, except you forgot to add AFRIKA to the list of growing nations!
Go read up on some literature on the city of Kigali, Rwanda, and see how it has grown, and it is becoming a mecca for the industrial world. There is going to be more trading done in this city, than any other city in the world!
Those countries you mentioned are in AFRIKA right now, building their empires; while our people starve! China has started building a rail system that is second to none, right there in Nigeria!
CHECK:
China is offering Nigeria $1.1 billion in loans to help the West African nation build airport terminals, a light rail line for its capital city and communication system improvements, the country’s Finance Ministry said Wednesday.
The loans come as China increasingly looks across Africa for raw minerals and supplies to fuel a massive economy that has slowed in recent years during the economic downturn. Addax Petroleum, a subsidiary of Chinese state-owned oil producer Sinopec Group, already pumps crude oil from Nigeria.”
As you can see, these mongoloids are taking over Afrika, while we sit back and let them do it; right here in amerikkka! It’s time for us to get some of that doe; and trade with our Afrikan brothers and sister, like we did when we occupied amerikkka!
Also, look at the other cities that are booming in Afrika! Most people don’t realize that 25% of all the oil comes from Afrika! Black people here in amerikkka are now getting ready to start doing business with Afrika on a GLOBAL LEVEL!
I told my son when he graduates go into business for yourself…it’s the only way! These serpents are only going to hire THEIR OWN KIND; therefore, our children will not have a chance unless, they build their OWN NATION!
You are right; everybody TAKES what they want from the unuted snakes, except Black people, and THIS IS OUR COUNTRY!!! These negroids love to BEG; while the foreign strangers are in OUR COMMUNITIES getting rich off of our labor!
This is what integration and re-ligion did to the negro; it made them weak and dependent on caucasoids.
By the way…Go look at the video: KIGALI THE CLEANEST, SAFEST CITY IN THE WORLD

Somebody Must Have More than a Few Screws Loose in the Old Noggin to Appoint Waters or Burke!
“House Leaders Appoint Independent Ethics Panel Members” by Susan Davis “Other members include: former Democratic Rep. Yvonne Brathwaite Burke of California, former Democratic Rep. Karan English of Arizona, former House Chief Administrative Officer Jay Eagen, and Allison Hayward, a George Mason University law professor and former chief of staff of the Federal Election Commission.”
YouTube: “Yvonne Burke Lives in Brentwood” Uploaded by fullosseousflap on Jul 27, 2007
“Los Angeles County Supervisor Yvonne Burke is observed living outside her district.”
ARTICLE II. Board of Supervisors, Section 4. “The County of Los Angeles shall have a Board of Supervisors consisting of five members, each of whom must be an elector of the district which he represents, must reside therein during his incumbency, must have been such an elector for at least one year immediately preceding his election, and shall be elected by such district. Their terms of office shall be four years, and each shall hold until his successor is elected and qualified. No person while a member of the Board of Supervisors shall receive any compensation, in addition to that provided for by this Section, for services rendered to any public or governmental entity. They shall each receive as compensation for their services a salary, payable monthly from the County Treasury, which shall be the same as that now or hereafter prescribed by law for a judge of the Superior Court in and for the County of Los Angeles, except that retirement benefits shall be those now or hereafter provided by law for officers and employees of the County of Los Angeles. They shall devote all their time during business hours to the faithful service of the public.”
….not surprising in the least because a while back no good carpetbagging in violation of the LA County Charter the entire time she held office over the 2nd District former LA County Supervisor Yvonne “Brentwood” Burke was placed on the Congressional House Ethics Committee.

LA City Council President’s Son Arrested On Suspicion Of Drunken Driving
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — The Los Angeles City Council president’s son was arrested Saturday on suspicion of drunken driving.
Justin Wesson, 30, was stopped around 8:15 p.m. at a DUI checkpoint in Los Angeles.
He was booked and taken to jail, but was released on $5,000 bond.
Herb Wesson said his son, who works as his legislative deputy, was driving his own car when he was stopped.
The council president said he’s grateful no one was injured.
The elder Wesson also said “appropriate action” will be taken within the office.
Justin Wesson is expected to be arraigned Oct. 18.

How is it if Los Angeles, California is an integral part of the United States that Los Angeles’ Council President Herb Wesson can employ his son, Justin Wesson on his staff (Wesson’s son arrested in DUI, L.A. Times, 9-26-12, p. AA4) when “a rule that generally prohibits lawmakers from hiring relatives, including spouses and children” exists?
(Ethics panel clears Waters, ends inquiry, L. A. Times, 9-26-12). Considering the two articles cited as examples it seems that in this society of law not men there is another law for black lawmakers who say with impunity, “Do as I say, not as I do,” to the people who pay their salaries.
……and black folks, the ones most often affected, only fuss when the foot of the kicker is a different nationality, preferably white like former Governor of Alabama George Wallace.
All that any intelligent African American or Black African has to do is simply look at Barack Obama’ cabinet and all of his other appointments of individuals to positions of authority and to also research every piece of legislation Obama forwarded and signed into law much of which has Americans and America under martial law, without any privacy rights whatsoever, and also soon to be forced to accept RFID implants (which is buried in Obama’ Healthcare Bill as a legal requirement for Americans) to be able to work, buy, sell, or do else anything in America unless the federal government first knows everything about you. Proof of what Obama’ reign as POTUS thus far is in this pudding, among other available information. African Americans, Black People throughout Africa and worldwide, and poor disenfranchised people of other races worldwide with the exception of those who go along with doing the bidding of rich white Jews and Obama, are going to fare far worse than they can ever begin to imagine. White Jews have the money and powerful influence to slaughter millions, and they have already slaughtered many thousands through Zionist-orchestrated terror attacks. White Jews also heavily financed and participated in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, became incredibly rich from ownership of African slaves and plantations in America, and they have full influence in American and worldwide politics and government on a level that most African Americans and other races except Caucasians involved would find hard to believe. White Jews own or have direct power over all major domestic and international banks, major corporations and industries, and have overwhelmingly infiltrated and hijacked the top world governments. Long before Barack Obama became POTUS, he was directly selected, bought, and paid for being partially owned by rich white Jews, Zionists, and all of their helpers including being fully owned by Lucifer the father and director of them all. One of the most dangerous white Jewish qualities is their brutal, direct barbaric intolerance. A worse tyranny cannot be practiced than that, which the white Jewish cliques in America, Israel, and elsewhere worldwide practices. If you speak out and try to move against the injustices seen and known carried out by white Jews and Zionists, they as a formidable clique will without any hesitation use the vilest of all forms of retaliation and brutal methods to overcome you. White Jews mainly try to destroy their enemies mentally and physically by systematically taking away all ability to become employed and access to acquire financial or material gain. In this way, they seek to fully undermine and make livable civil existence nearly, if not completely, impossible. Do not be afraid of white Jews who also happen to not even be descendants of the original ancient Hebrew Israelites who were black people nor join them in helping to destroy your own people due to fear. Help rather harm your own people to temporarily save your own skin, the latter of which the so-called “Black Elite” has done as standard procedure since after the Civil Rights Movement onward. Blacks in America, Africa, and elsewhere must take off their blinders, really see and understand what is happening, unite together in obedience first to Almighty God and Lord Son Jesus Christ, and stick together against any and all persecution. African Americans and others in America and elsewhere worldwide who are Almighty God’s people on His Team had best quickly forget about Obama, Romney, Democrats/Republicans, American and world politics /elections period. Forget about the color of Obama’ skin and his wife’s because it means nothing. It’s just a great and perfect smoke screen causing you to vote for the color of a man’s skin whose legislation, policies, and rich backers running the entire world you really know nothing at all about comprehensively. The farse and joke is on the people–the masses. Get your heads out of the quick sand of false political parties, false political leaders, false war on terrorism, and false war on drugs media stories churned out daily by media organizations owned by the same rich white Jews, among others, who directly control USA presidents, G8 countries’ leaders, and leaders worldwide. The “War on Terrorism” and 911 was not caused by outside forces. This is completely false. Both were deliberately orchestrated and created by the rich running the world to make Americans extremely fearful and against Muslim countries, to make Americans not vehemently protest but to embrace Bush’ Patriot Act and Obama’ National Defense Authorization Act, among other legislation both of them passed, which ignores and substantially reduces U.S. citizens’ and others’ rights under the U.S. Constitution, and to cause paid civil uprisings in such countries for the purpose of destroying those countries leaders to take over oil, land, people and other resources of those countries. Begin right now to prepare as best you and your families can for imminent collapse of the American dollar and economic chaos in USA /worldwide. American and global economic chaos means worthless money, empty supermarket food shelves, and a whole lot more. You’ve been warned. Prepare now.
“They are the so-called neo-cons,or neo-conservatives. A compact group, almost all of whose members are Jewish. They hold the key positions in the Bush administration, as well as in the think-tanks that play an important role in formulating American policy and the ed-op pages of the influential newspapers….Seemingly, all this is good for Israel. America controls the world, we control America. Never before have Jews exerted such an immense influence on the center of world power.”

“I’ve never seen a President — I don’t care who he is — stand up to them. It just boggles the mind. They always get what they want. The Israelis know what is going on all the time.

Our citizens certainly don’t have any idea what goes on.”

“Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves.”

“The Jewish people as a whole will become its own Messiah. It will attain world dominion by the dissolution of other races, by the abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy and by the establishment of a world republic in which the Jews will everywhere exercise the privilege of citizenship. In this New World Order the children of Israel will furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition. The Governments of the different peoples forming the world republic will fall without difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then be possible for the Jewish rulers to abolish private property and everywhere to make use of the resources of the state. Thus will the promise of the Talmud be fulfilled, in which is said that when the Messianic time is come, the Jews will have all the property of the whole world in their hands.”
— Baruch Levy, Letter to Karl Marx, ‘La Revue de Paris’, p.574, June 1, 1928
“If a Gentile exposes Zionism, they are called “anti-semitic”, which is nothing more than a smokescreen to hide the Zionists actions. But, if a Jew is the person doing the exposing, they resort to other tactics. First, they ignore the charges, hoping the information will not be given widespread distribution. If the information starts reaching too many people, they ridicule the information and the persons giving the information.
If that doesn’t work, their next step is character assassination. If the author or speaker hasn’t been involved in sufficient scandal they are adept at fabricating scandal against the person or persons.
If none of these are effective, they are known to resort to physical attacks. But, NEVER do they try to prove the information wrong.”
Jack Bernstein, (assassinated by MOSSAD, the Israeli Intelligence Force equivalent to USA’ FBI)
One of the great things about America is you can leave and go the cleanest, safest city in the world.
I voted for Obama because he is black. I will not vote for him again because I do not like many of his policies. I know many blacks will vote for Obama not matter what he does or says.
Even when you factor in racism, we all have the right to make good choices. Educate yourself, don’t have children until YOU can afford to raise them. Have children when you are married, based on the theory that two incomes are better than. Don’t teach your children the victim mentality of ‘the gov’ment owes me’, rich white people owe me, somebody owes me something.
To be sure the government does owe us certain things. A strong military and the maintenance of our infastructure among other things. To raise our children to think, free lunch, free childcare, free housing etc is their right is crippling to our children and to our race.
I agree with the brother 100%
President gets a pass too much
AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE THE WORST.
African Americans have given up on reading, and African American politicians such as the CBC chairman dare to support a sitting black U.S. president out of fear of being called a ni@#er lover by white politicians.
The New York Times refers to Barack Obama as the last black politician. White journalist asks each other out loud, “What’s going with progression, evolution and rehabilitation in the black community”?
The reply is nothing happening in the black community. There is no movement of progression, evolution and rehabilitation in the black community.
Unless a African American is speaking out loud complaining about the first black president then it is like Christmas Eve in the black community whereas….
“all throughout the house, no creatures were stirring, not even a mouse. The black folks cowered on the plantation with despair hoping soon that the white people will be there.”
By and by someone told the African Americans that reading books is the way to freedom, prosperity, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness but the African Americans replied from their actions that…
.”If waiting for the white people to come is wrong then I don’t want to be right because ain’t no book gonna save me!”
…And so the white people came
White people came and joined the African Americans in their civil rights struggle. White people did not have to support the African American struggle but they had respect for blacks that had the courage to stand up for the ideals, symbolism and dignity of the Red, Green and Black flag.
White people came go to Africa to help with the black struggle. White people came into the inner city neighborhoods and schools to help teach African American children.
The white people came and built housing to keep African Americans in their communities. The white people came and built banks so that African Americans can save money ………. but the African Americans will have none of it.
Instead of civil rights, schools, Affordable housing, bank loans and libraries African Americans want President Obama to find or create for them a job or opportunity. African Americans want unlimited unemployment extensions and affordable housing only in white areas.
African Americans want banks to make it easy and affordable through no interest charity loans to be able to shop in the white areas and eat in white restaurants.
African Americas protest and keep their children out of African American schools because they want to raise and educate their children alongside white people’s children.
It is not enough that the white people came into the African American inner city neighborhoods and areas bringing with them the avenues of opportunity for African Americans to do for self.
Doing for self means supporting their own black businesses and reading how to books.
African Americans treat reading books like weapons of mass destruction and supporting black business is a waste of time because African Americans don’t read enough to know the infinite benefits of supporting their own enterprises.
….so the African Americans wait for the white people to come again.
The white people came again but this time they showed up with high powered rifles to shoot and kill any black person trying to escape uptown during the Katrina hurricane.
The white people came on cruise ships to Haiti during the earthquake to swim, have s*x, sip wine, eat caviar and drink champagne from their lavish cruise ships as they watched, pointed and rejoiced at the black dead bodies laying crushed, decapitated, mangled and twisted in the streets of Haiti.
The white people came back into the inner city neighborhoods and areas to shut down your schools, cut off your welfare and suspend private funding
The white people came and left taking with them their magnanimous gestures of African American opportunities and on the way out they let the Spanish players in.
… and the Spanish players don’t take prisoners.
The Spanish players as of this writing have the African Americans surrounded and engulfed as they cut off and deplete the African Americans residual resources of land, food and water.
The African Americans sit idly by on the 21st century plantation watching their own destruction, demise, elimination, defeat and extinction hoping in their hearts that it will only happen to the other African American family and not them.
When African Americans are asked about their condition and as long as African Americans refuse to open up and read a book then..….
…It is all Barak Obama’s fault.

Blacks need to position themselves to be able to “catch hams” Obama throws out the window. As menti oned in others comments much of what he’s done benefits all, including blacks; but to specifically provide blacks a benefit at the exclusion of non-blacks at this time would be committing political suicide. However those who continue to see Obama as having done anything for blacks have the option of jumping on the Republican band wagon and really see what nothing really is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am surprised to hear this PRESIDENT HAS BEEN GIVEN A PASS ON ANY THING ,BY ANY ONE, … I voted for this President because he’s the best for this job, in 2008, as well as now ,didn’t expect any special treatments from this President or any of the other ones before him, but I vote this year for my dear sister-in law who four years ago was able to get out the vote with me she passed this year from Alzheimer’s but said to me ‘”I never Thought I would live long enough to see this’” ,and my best friend Norman who regardless to how sick he was, ask him the President name he could tell you,he passed from kidney failure , I vote for the two of them this year,I took care of the both of them , so I know how important health insurance is.
