I thought it was a great speech. He was clearly speaking from his heart and SINCERELY cares about the African American community. He asked some tough questions, AND he gave some SPECIFIC solutions to some of the problems.
Anyone see James Rosen of FOX commenting after the speech? He said something like, "The Pres. received a LUKEWARM reception . . . " I thought the people seemed really happy with the speech, lots of clapping, etc. AND he was even nice to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton . . .
This is the UL. I wasn't expecting them to jump wildly in their seats for this President but he got a more fair hearing from this crowd than from the partisan NAACLP. The fact of the matter is there are plenty of forums for the President to go over the heads of liberals to address Black America.
