On the surface this is a great idea. Encourage healthy lifestyles. Then look under the cover and you see community organizing with the NMA, government and churches, plus a setup for affirmative action for the medical field. Welcome to Obamacare!

More black physicians?

Yes, that’s what they need. More unqualified blacks given seats in medical school, coddled along to graduation by race-norming and other ways of reducing standards, and then released into the community to work as physicians and butcher patients.

Then the black folk can complain that blacks get poorer health care than whites and have a lower life expectancy... whitey’s fault!

Dream on. Blacks who are upwardly mobile and have the education and financial means are NOT going to stop the process with obamacare looming. They will more likely enter the law field which will promise huge salaries when suing the few remaining overworked and unhappy docs and health institutions.

"The number of black physicians has been eroding," said Dr. Nelson Adams, of Miami. Adams is former state and national president of the National Medical Association. "We've been trying to get kids to seek out careers in science and math," he said.

Kids might do better going to Ronald McDonald U.

A couple of suggestion to the U S Surgeon General. (I didn’t know we had one in the Obama admin - I thought it would be a Czar)

Black students must stay in high school
A basketball contract will not make you a Doctor.
You have to be able to speak clearly, and, above all, be able to write!
Oh yes, it takes at least 8 more years of school just ot be called “Doctor”.

If they don’t want to be treated by cracker (and Hispanic) doctors and nurses they can get black doctors from out of the area or start black medical schools. Maybe Obama will lower the requirements to become a black medical professional.

[LibWhacker]

Lower standards. Hand out medical degrees like candy.

Too many basketball players are .... what color? (I forget)

[Cloverfarm]

Who cares what color a doctor or nurse is? I mean, gee whiz, all that matters is that they do their job right!

[SaraJohnson]

We badly need affirmative action doctors to carry out Obama’s Death care! Yeah, that’s the ticket!

"The number of black physicians has been eroding," said Dr. Nelson Adams....may Doctor Adams some day end up in an emergency room being cared for by a physician who got into medical school, not on the basis of his grades or demonstrated abilities, but primarily because he, or she, was black.....
