video: President Obama took on the role of television critic in remarks today at the Islamic Society of Baltimore.
"Our television shows should have some Muslim characters that are unrelated to national security," the president said at the mosque, "because -- it's not that hard to do. There was a time when there were no black people on television. And you can tell good stories while still representing the reality of our communities."

I have seen one or two examples of a black perp on a cop show. It’s very rare. And if you watch Law & Order shows, you KNOW that the most dangerous place to send your kids for an education is a posh private prep school.

How about a reality tv show called “The Crusades Part II”? They can play their part.

“If Islam was the religion of peace why don't they run the Imam's who are radicals out of the religion, why don't they renounce Jihad and have a top to bottom reform of the religion.”
Because its Iscam, not Islam.

I don’t watch a lot of first-run TV, but three of my favorite shows had major Muslim characters: Community, Bones and House. Seems hard to believe Obama didn’t know about the guy from House, since he hired him as director of Muslim outreach.

Nah, check out “The Wire” from HBO. Nearly all the criminals are black.
Of course, nearly the entire cast is black...
