In a personal and impassioned speech Monday at Lehman College in New York City, President Barack Obama unveiled a new private sector-funded expansion of his My Brothers Keeper initiative, which seeks to provide incentives and opportunities for young men of color in high-risk areas to improve their lives.
The My Brothers Keeper Alliance, which arrives on the heels of protests and violent clashes with police in Baltimore in the aftermath of Freddie Grays death, is a big deal to the president.

Breaking News! I just saw a pick up truck flying the Second Confederate Navy Jack drive by my house here in soviet Red Hampshire a few minutes. OMG! You're more likely to see a total solar eclipse this far north.
Back to your regular thread.

Obama did learn something from the Clintons -- how to create your own private slush-fund and get donations to pay for it.

I wouldn't expect any of these ignorant people to really know the origin of "my brother's keeper". They likely don't care as they think it is nice slogan and "out of the Bible" so that means they can feel all righteous about using it and it is all about taking care of the needs of other people, etc.
In reality, it was a sarcastic, lying retort by Cain to God denying his murder of Able...
Then the Lord said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He said, "I do not know. Am I my brothers keeper?" - Genesis 4:9
So, it is a murderer's lie, by a murderer denying his cold-blooded murder of his own brother and then trying to cover it up.
Somehow, it fits the attitudes of these people to a tee even if they don't know it.

Hmm, it’s almost as if Obama picked that slogan on purpose.

I give him less than 10 years after we force him out of the White House.
He'll either die of AIDS or OD on cocaine.

Five years from now it will be fun to watch him try to muscle in on JJackson’s turf.
JJackson may actually have an opportunity to cut his balls off.

I wonder too. I would believe he actually cared if he helped his own family. One of them had to get money for his child’s medical bill from that conservative writer who Obama persecuted.
