As a conservative with a black mom, sisters, and a gang of black aunts, that's good to hear, although you can't prove it by my family.
I'm fairly certain that they all still kiss their pictures of Obama every night before bed.
But our last conversation had not gone well. He was shocked to hear that I had not voted for Obama and went on about how Obama was “ going to take care of his people “. On and on he went about the white presidents always taking care of white people but now it was their time to get taken care of. On and on about “ white people always getting stuff and we get the shaft “
I told him he was nuts and he told me that he wasn't alone in his feelings - he said all the blacks he knew and his family felt the same way.
None of it made any sense at all and its not like this guy is a moron. He is a good guy, hard working man ( cop )with a family that he loves and supports: your basic American male. I just don't see how he ever came to the far out conclusions
