I haven't finished Obama's first book-" Dreams From My Father" yet , but, I do have some impressions.
Obama talks about his drug use -lots of pot, coke when he could afford it, " no smack, though."
What is more troubling is his black power , black angst , most " white folk are racist,"
Nikki Giovanni, Langston Hughes type of writing.
Obama's total recall of almost every conversation he ever had from elementary school on up ( FYI-don't read the book if " mother.... " offends you ) stretches credulity.
And the sheer number of bigoted " white folk " he encountered in his daily life in Hawaii, makes the state sound like Jim Crow Alabama of the 50s.
Yes, I don't think the cocaine use is trivial, but some of his other ingrained attitudes are more troubling.
Well, that will get him the black vote, but then the dems already have that vote.
