Since the left loves comparing Jackie Robinson to Obama lets switch it. If Jackie Robinson came on the scene as the first black pro ball player and had a record worse than Bob Uecker, would we have ever heard of him again? That's the best way to compare Obama to Robinson.

Yet North American blacks are better off than any others in the whole world, by leaps-and-bounds. She should get on her knees and thank the Lord that someone captured her ancestors and put them on slave ships.

"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well." - Booker T. Washington 1911

Thanks for that, Tigers Eye.
Mr. Washington was quite a man.

Overt white racism has been dead maybe two generations now while anti white racism flourishes
But where they really had a chance was about black families and fatherhood and illegtimacy
Black young people worship that fool
He had their ear...and did not one thing to at least instill some shame back in them about their behavior...or lack of
He will answer for that when the roll is called

Jackie Robinson got to the Major League by virtue of his superior ball-playing skills. It was no other entitlement.

He nailed it 102 years ago. Apparently it was already a shopworn gig then.

For sure. They’ve just improved their methods as the population had been dumbed down.

I don't think Michelle 0bama was raised in a ghetto. She chose to take on the "aggrieved negro" persona purely as an ideological affectation. IOWs she's as phony as her jug-eared Kenyan consort.

Great point. I just used the ghetto reference more as a state of mind that the current occupants of the WH seem to want to be part of their persona. (late, hope this makes sense).

And some say she might be president one day. I no longer think such things are impossible.

Her first date with Obama was a Spike Lee Movie...”Do the Right Thing”. So this is just one of her-same story, different day - “I hate whitey” gigs.

It’s a liberal white guilt movie and Helgeland, the director is an a-hole libtard, and so are the producers. Yes, I met him on a movie project here in L.A. months ago.
