Even at the end of his second term, Barack Obama is finding ways to blame others for his failures.
At the beginning of his presidency, everything was George W. Bushs fault. After several years and long after the Bush-blaming had outstayed its welcome Obama finally found a new scapegoat. Suddenly, all of the administrations shortcomings had to do with a racist electorate.
At one point Obama even claimed that racism holds all black people back, including his own family. It was an absurd argument from a man who was elected twice to be President of the United States.
But the absurdity of the argument hasnt stopped Obama from making it again and again through his tenure as president. And he hasnt stopped now that hes serving his final months in the oval office.
Barack Obama has now served two full terms as President of the United States. Despite the fact that he was elected by a majority-white electorate, he still seems to think the United States is full of a bunch of racists.
In an interview aired Wednesday on CNN, President Obama described how he thinks people may view him differently than other presidents because of his race.
I think theres a reason attitudes about my presidency among whites in northern states are very different from whites in southern states, Obama told CNNs Fareed Zakaria.
Obama described how the birther movement, fueled in large part by President-elect Donald Trump, affected him.
Are there folks whose primary concern about me has been that I seem foreign the other? Are those who champion the birther movement feeding off of bias? Absolutely, he said.
The birther movement didnt start because of the color of Obamas skin. It started because he was a man who lived his childhood in a foreign country who was, for the majority of his presidency, unable to locate his long-form birth certificate. But these real concerns apparently never occurred to Obama. He would rather call his opponents racist than acknowledge that they had real concerns.
What a small souled loser Obama is.
Here in Alabama I haven’t heard one disparaging word spoken about his race in eight years.
What southerners don’t like is that he’s an America hating socialist. White, black — that’s completely beside the point.
Me thinks it’s your policies. Your hand selected replacement went down in flames. She was white. She came. She saw. She lost.
A Muslim, a fag, a commie, and he ruined our military with queers and lesbians etc. He has put the most corrupt activists in power, plus he has trashed our deficit and so much more. CAIR in the White House is too much. Kick Valerie J. out of America, too. I hope Trump orders his records.
Exactly. Marxist/Muslim scum.
Wisconsin, Michigan and Penn went RED. For 2 reasons. Zero has come across as Anti American for the past 8 years. And then you have Corrupt who is just well, corrupt.
Notice Corrupt and her team NEVER deny that the devastating anti American, liberal media colluding emails are false... no they never deny that they corruption and collusion with the liberal press is false.
This is seriously the best election ever. As in EVER.
Donald Trump is fearless. FEARLESS. You would think even the left would acknowledge that Trump knows how to handle corruption when he sees it. The following scenes were game changers. Trump literally had the Clinton team in fetal position minutes before a live debate.
They know why they lost. They come across as Anti American and Corrupt. It was inevitable that it would catch up to them at some point. Once the internet and social media surpassed the liberal media's influence, it was bound to happen. And then you had a fearless candidate from day one like Trump. Only someone with the courage like Trump was able to stop the propaganda. Bout time.
His job ends shortly after noon eastern time January 20, 2017, just like his boss.
No Mr. Obama they do not like you because you are an extreme leftist quasi Marxist that fans the flames of racial division and violence for political gain.
Mr. Obama, explain how the deep south southern state of South Carolina elects a republican black senator and reelected him in November 2016 with 60.5% of the vote. His name is Tim Scott, a conservative black man. The other Senator from South Carolina is a white republican and only got 54.27% in the general election in 2014. His name is Lindsey Graham.
Yes Mr. Obama, their is great bigotry in this nation and the vast majority is coming from leftists like you.
Wrong again BO plenty. We don’t like because you’re anti American
LOL! During his last campaign, there were booths at a fair and there were a LOT of Blacks carrying Romney yard signs and bumper stickers around - even the Southern Mississippi Blacks seem to be too White for Obama...
i do not care if obammy is a black guy, i care that he is a jive ass marxist punk, know it all.
No, I hate you NOT because you are black, as I have black friends, but because you are an AntiAmerican, racist, Muslim Marxist, who is a failure.
No Barry we don’t like you because you are an ineligible commie that wants to destroy our way of life.
Agreed...
They don’t like you because you’re very low of character.
And we dislike Gore and Kerry why?
We like blacks who shares our goals and values
It’s fairly small percentage admittedly
Your party owns the rest
Part of it is he claimed foreign on his applications for slots and scholarship
Which would send Birthers to the moon Alice
