Only Ten Percent of Americans Think Race Relations Are Better In Obama Era
Breibart ^ | August 22, 2014 | Charles Spiering

Since Barack Obama was elected president, only 10 percent of Americans believe that race relations have gotten better, according to a New York Times/CBS Poll published today.

The poll found 17 percent of blacks and 8 percent of whites believe race relations have improved under Obama.

Thirty five percent of Americans believe that race relations have gotten worse in the Obama era -- including 40 percent of whites and 21 percent of blacks. Fifty-two percent of Americans polled said that race relations have stayed about the same.

That should come as no surprise. He really never ran on a platform of improving race relations. He's kept his distance from genuine black Americans, who don't think much of him as a black, hadn't gone through the test of being a black in America that the Civil Rights era brought to bear. Blacks have complained he hadn't done much of anything regarding the sort of black causes they've been spoon-fed from the days of Johnson. And God knows how he has alienated Whites with his ' Trayvon, Rave-On, "if I had a son' incitement and the illegals he's let in doesn't help him, either. So, I'm surmising that most of the the 10% comes from the politics makes the strangest bedfellows LGBT-Muslim Brotherhood-Dog Eating Axis of the American voting consituency. .

100% of THIS American thinks he’s a POS and is counting down the days until we are RID of him...though we’ll NEVER be ‘rid’ of him.

Bill & Hill are STILL consuming our Tax Dollars and more importantly, precious oxygen!

808 days to go! Will America survive? We shall see...

Kind of a surprise since I don’t know anyone who believes that relations have improved. Most people I encounter believe that things are worse to much worse.

Leave the presence of a fool, for there you do not meet words of knowledge. The wisdom of the prudent is to discern his way, but the folly of fools is deceiving.

Those are the liberal liars; most of which are likely college teachers.

I’m still trying to find all this “racism” the left keeps talking about. Please give me one example. The only “racism” I’m seeing is phantom racism from the left, as if they think this guy Michael Brown was walking down the street when suddenly a cop car pulled up and the cops jumped out, shot him to death and high-fived each other. Do they honestly believe that?

Sooooo true! And how long ago was that written, and it hits the nail right on the head today. Deceiving by creating acts of faux racism. What I’d like to know is where are these same rioters, looters, protesters, marchers, when a cop is killed because he waited to late to act like what happened in New Jersey last month........

http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2014/07/13/cops-jersey-city-police-officer-shot-dead-during-armed-robbery/

But when a cop defends himself, or even a white Hispanic defending himself suddenly it’s “racism”

I’ll go with your reply as the most accurate.

Sharpton and Jackson are making great strides in keeping idiots just that.

10%.

I’m guessing that was the error rate of the statistics model.

I don’t think ANYONE thinks race relations are better under Obama. A better metric would be to compare race relations with Dubya in 2007 vs. Obama 20014. Obama is president from his destruction of race relations. The democrat party relies on pitting one ‘race’ against another to compete for handouts in their perverted Thunderdome. “One race enter, one race leaves!” Latino vs Black. Black Vs everyone. Rich Vs. Poor. If it wasn’t for hatred Liberals would be wandering Death Valley for 40 years without a trace of Burning Man.

Actually, they’re far, far worse - and will only go downhill from here.

Who are the 10%? The self-deluded. They believe that Obama is the One, who was going to bring racial healing to America. They still believe he’s the One, so that means he must’ve improved race relations, otherwise, he’s not the One. So, they ignore reality, delude themselves and live in their padded Obama World cell. There’s no hope for these people, even going through the concentration camps gates wouldn’t wake they up.

I have no doubt this true. Obama with little opposition, at least to this point, has brought race to the top. However it is a Hollywood and MSM fabrication along with government help that race relations have ever been good. That’s not to say there aren’t some genuine efforts from non whites but in general the proportion are highly lopsided, kinda like voting. One of the main reasons they were ever considered ‘good’ was under force of law and anti-white legislation along with mega doses of propaganda from all sides. That races in general but blacks in particular are working in good faith on so called race relations is not reality.
