“Black men like Obama are creating a long-term public relations nightmare for guys like me. I fear that in years to come, people will write me off with prejudice, simply because I fit the profile.”

Barack and his ilk are trying to divide this country, I do not believe they are succeeding. Along racial or economic lines.
They are pitting producers against takers. The takers are realizing that Barack is killing the golden goose, and the producers are realizing that he is killing the producers economically.

I base my perceptions on character not on skin color, or group think. If you treat me fairly I will treat you fairly.

I believe that there are more productive citizens that believe as I do, than believe as zeroes minions.

I have the had the privilege to work with and beside many of different skin colors that do not judge a person by color but character. In my job/professional life I work with folks from India,China, polynesia and other places.
All they ask is that I do my job, all I ask is that they do theirs.

In the end character or lack of character is all that matters.

Be true to yourself, or the way I express to my contemporaries, if at the end of the day I can look in the mirror and say that I did not screw my fellow man/woman, I did good today.

By the way I often lately need to remind myself about the above.

Call me cynical, but I believe that Obama will ultimately be responsible for hardening the hearts of many blacks.

He's led them down a path that leads to nowhere, and when they arrive, I fear that they won't blame him, but will blame mainstream America, instead.

Obama saw an existing wedge between black Americans and mainstream America, and took a sledge hammer to it, widening and deepening it, even further.

Not all black people will fall for this, but those who were already predisposed to cultural isolation will forever believe that Obama failed because of racism.
