I was out having a picnic with a lady friend of mine and while we sat munching on Fried Chicken and Potato Salad, a group of Blacks were having a picnic close to where we were and we happened to overhead some of the conversation at their party. They were really whooping it up that Obama was president and how great he was and how everything was cool because we had a black president. We finished eating our picnic and packed up and left, and it occurred to me that these people aren't keeping up with current events, all they knew was Obama was black and that's all they needed to know. It made me know for sure that these poor people haven't paid any attention to what's going on around them. They have a black man in the oval office and that's enough for them. Well let's just look at what that has meant to the black man.
From the start President Barack Obama has shown little interest or loyalty in the issues that affect the poor, working class, and people of color in the United States. For almost his entire first term he didn't utter the words poor or poverty. Early on he reminded African Americans: “I’m not the president of black America. I’m the president of the United States of America…”
So it's not so surprising that Obama hasn’t done much of substance or impact to ease, let alone end, the depression in the black Need More Proof?
“The country’s back to pretty much where it was when this president started,” Mr. Jealous told MSNBC host David Gregory on “Meet the Press.” “White people in this country are doing a bit better. Black people are doing a full point worse.”
Still Not Convinced?
You must have a brain tumor.
Under George Bush it wasn't close to this bad, and they hated him. Amazing what skin color can do, if your black, you can kill each others kids, rape each others wives and ruin an entire country. But if you white, you are just a bigoted racist. Amazing.
