While performing the eulogy for gospel music legend Andraé Crouch, Stevie Wonder decried what he believes is racism against President Obama, arguing that despite the president’s best efforts, too many Americans dislike him simply because he’s black.

“For me, seeing the world and visualizing in my mind what is going on, some of it is such a heartbreak,” Mr. Wonder said while softly playing the piano at the Jan. 21 funeral for Crouch in Los Angeles.

“We live in a time where I believe we have a president that truly wanted to see the world come together, to see this nation come together, but yet too much, too many people are judging their dislike of him based on the color of his skin,” he said, receiving applause.

“And I know there are some who say ‘no, that’s not true,’ but I’m telling you what I see,” Mr. Wonder added.

oh, that makes sense, too - all I could find on the Net was “big fat liar” ;)

This is a long song, and not Stevie’s best version of it, but just seeing that black and white footage was cool for me. There was a shorter version that was played at a lot of the basketball games...back in ancient times.

Stevie’s had a good life largely made possible by whitey buying his music and going to his concerts - this ain’t racism, Stevie, we just don’t like a commie taking the country down the chute!

Stephan Hawking, gifted scientist that he is, accepts the man-made global warming fiction without question and broadly pontificates on it even in the face of evidence that should cause reconsideration in all but the most tenacious sucker..er...believer.

Stevie Wonder, talented musician that he is, falls for the “Obama’s hated because of his back skin” fabrication that anyone with an ounce of self determination can conclude, even without eyes, is pure BS.

Some people have a narrow spectrum of brilliance and outside the boundaries it drops off sharply. Then they fall prey to the same cult think that all mortals do who don’t remain vigilant.

It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough.

The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments

Cheers to you, sir! Honestly I never listened to him much, I've never been into Motown or soul. Jazz, certainly but a different style. Then I went South and never came back...lol! This is more my style these days: Arlindo Cruz - Não Penso em Mais Nada
