Reuters) - President Barack Obama, seeking to fire up an important part of his support base ahead of November's elections, told black leaders on Saturday he wanted their support to "guard the change" he was delivering.

If that was his primary goal I doubt he would have been able to mask his true intentions this long.

I get the impression it's his parting shot at a country that rejects his marxist agenda.

It’s a bit like asking them to fall on the grenade, isn’t it? Only thing is, he threw it.

[The Duke]

Yeah .. real smart to “guard” the current unemployment rate.

[pennboricua]

Actually I believe it will be way less than that, Obama’s stash has not been used to purchase fuel for the cars or the cars that are needed to get them to the polls, and if it is cold and raining on election day, the Black Leaders better get the school buses fueled and ready to pick them up and get them to the polls.

The Blacks NEVER vote with us anyway,No loss!

[A_Former_Democrat]

What’s the unemployment rate and poverty rate, Obama?

How’s that hope and change and unity working out for you Obamites?

[x_plus_one]

Are these Obama’s pitchfork carriers?

[Psalm 144]

Change the guard.

[BIGLOOK]

Barky’s neck bones and collards are in the fire.

Meanwhile, voter are about to change the guard in Congress.

Yes it would be just as Obama’s call for blacks to guard change is racist.

I am no white. But, I am just as angry at the “change” as any American can be. Dont need racial division to help me decide the best future for America.

[indianrightwinger]

Exactly!!! I am always ticked off when folks confuse the point. USA is a “free republic”, period!!

[SMCC1]

A lot of people are guarding their change these days thanks to Obama.

[RC one]

If I were an old school hard working American Democrat, I would feel like my party had been hijacked. I can’t believe that any such person would still see Republicans as the greater of the two evils.

‘Guard what change?” Last time I looked, blacks were in far worse straits than any other group, and everyone is suffering.

[oldbrowser]

he wanted their support to "guard the change" he was delivering.

So in other words Obama is admitting that he did not create this mess because he is incompetent or stupid. He is admitting that he has done this to the country on purpose.

[LoneStarGI]

They have to support him. They’ve invested literally everything in this guy. They invested their trust, hopes, dreams, everything. If this guy (Obama) ‘fails’ as a President, then by proxy, in their minds, they’ve failed. It means the chances of electing another guy like this in the future as president will pretty much never happen, because everyone will think of Barry and all the crap he pulled. It’s quite sad actually.
