Obama's Attention to Border Crisis Outrages Blacks
Newsmax ^ | 8/19/2014 | Tod Beamon

Many blacks, who twice voted for Obama in record numbers to elect him as the nation's first African-American president, are angry that he has neglected the problems facing inner cities while working on the border crisis.

These big-city ills include chronic black unemployment, poor housing conditions, steep prices for food and services, low high-school graduation rates, and high crime rates.

"Black people are being played," Herman Cain...

By all accounts and as reported by Brietbart.com, the number of Border Patrol arrests of illegal immigrants since Oct. 1 stands at 174,000 and is still rising.

Cain and other African-American conservatives charge that Obama "manufactured this crisis" through a 2012 executive order that created the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

"We've got a real crisis in every major inner city in this country," Cain said. "They've done exactly nothing to understand the problem, let alone do anything about it."

Anita MonCrief, board member of the Black Conservatives Fund, told Newsmax that African-Americans have long been "sour on Obama."

"This is just the first time they've been fed up enough to say something about it.

"People were afraid to speak out because it was unpopular to be black and not be a supporter of Obama," MonCrief said. "The immigration crisis has brought all of this to a head to the point where people feel that they are compelled to speak out."

The community's first outcry came on Independence Day, when angry African-Americans confronted pro-immigration sympathizers in Murrieta, Calif. Two hundred residents blocked busloads of illegal minors who were being brought to a Border Patrol station in that city. Six people were arrested.

"Do something for our children," another man declared.

Referencing the Chicago demonstrations, MonCrief said, "When your children start dying because of senseless violence, political affiliations mean nothing."

The Real reason the circus came to town was because the black community got Obama's number. Last month there were reports of how the black community, which was already very disappointed with Obama, was furious about Obama’s recent bizarre concern about the Central American “children”, by helping them leave their families to come to the US. It was disturbing for most people, but Obama admin certainly can’t have appearance of black community straying from the farm.

3/2014-Poll: Just 11% of blacks say life under Obama is better for young African-Americans http://washingtonexaminer.com/poll-just-11-of-blacks-say-life-under-obama-is-better-for-young-african-americans/article/2545050

7/2014-Although the MSM didn’t dare report the following, the Obama Administration knows even the black community sees beyond the rhetoric. http://buzzpo.com/watch-angry-black-protesters-confront-pro-illegal-immigrant-supporters-border-station/

Sharpton and Jackson are the usual charlatans, who bring their circus to town with an entertaining horror show, presented by the enabling media. Nothing whips the peasants back into shape like chaos and FEAR. It is the same abusive dynamic of a pimp “protecting” his ladies by using and abusing them. It works.

The problem isn’t Obama. The enemy is the entity hiding behind the curtains that funded this fraud. We have to thank Obama for making the truth painfully obvious to all of us. This didn’t start with Obama. The media is controlled, and we are NOT free. At least that much is clear by now.

Neglecting them? Who do you think has been fomenting the conditions that are plaguing the inner cities?

Put down the joint and pick up a book, why don't you?

Preferably a book written by Thomas Sowell or Walter E. Williams.

Wow, I didn’t think he was paying much attention to the border crisis at all.

Unless you count pausing between golf outings to threaten to break the law by paasing amnesty via executive order.

A major goal was achieved with the election of an African-American president in 2008.

Almost six years later, the state of black America is as distressing as ever.

This proves to me once again, that the problems of black America are NOT due to racism, and NOT due to who is in power in politics.

A black president has had no power to change things in the black community. All the gang activity ,all the baby mama stuff going on, is not affected by who is president or who is in political power.

He's "WORKING" on the crisis? For crying out loud, he created it out of thin air. He's constantly fomenting it. It's his creation to create the next generation of Dim voters and a permanent welfare underclass that needs the Dims to take care of them cradle to grave.

Dear Mr. and Ms. Lower-End African-American, (AKA Baby-Daddy and Baby-Momma)

President Obama be busy inviting Hispanics to eat your lunch and dinner, too. Too busy to worry 'bout you.
But, if you want to keep your EBT card high, your Obamaphone, your AFDC, your Section 8 Crib, your Medical card, and the untaxed funds from street dealing and stealing, maybe best if you shuts up about it.

Don't threaten not to vote for Barack. You be votin' whether you knows it or not. BTW, Barry be announcin' a Program for you to learn Spanish and lawn care. Good luck and shut up.

What was it that Malcolm X said 50 years ago? That blacks are “chumps” for voting overwhelmingly for the Democrats because the Dems will take them for granted and spend their time going after the swing voters? I guess some things don’t change even with a black Dem president.

Skin color is everything with these”people.”
And yet they are to stupid to realize that Obama is a mullato and has as much in common genetically with Officer Wilson as he does with the Brown thug.

Obama created the Immigration disaster to distract from the many other disasters his administration has stumbled into.

He is now pumping up the Ferguson shooting into racist riots to get the blacks back on his side.

I believe the racist card is the last card he has available. what will he do next?
