Not me. I still think he is a little piece of dog ship. I think he has closed the door for any more "experiments in equality" at least where the presidential office is concerned. It will be good to at least be able to legitimately question what a leader does without being branded as racist. I am tired of tiptoeing around blacks who are out to lynch anyone with an opinion that differs from their own. We never should have let up on him. He has set race relations back about 50 years.
“He has set race relations back about 50 years.”
I disagree.
It wasn’t Obama or his lackeys that “set race relations back 50 years”.
The problem is that — for about fifty years — race relations have been going in a direction that promotes “separateness” (mostly amongst blacks), rather than “integration”. Integration may or may not have been possible after the Jim Crow era ended. I believe it was never really going to be an achievable end, because neither race wanted it, and for five decades blacks have embraced their own version of “apartheid”. By that I mean that black culture has purposely deviated from the [white] “mainstream” culture, with the results we see today (reverse racism, flash mobbin’, etc.). For many blacks, accusing them of “acting white” is the worst insult that can be made upon them — yet, in an American culture that arose -from- white Euros, it was the only behavior by which most whites might have accepted them as being “integrated”. That simply isn’t going to happen, now or in the future.
No, Obama didn’t do anything to set race relations “back”.
Rather, he is the epitome of what we get from decades of deteriorating racial progress.
He is a symptom.
He is not the cause.
“I still think the president is a nice person.”
Tired of our side saying platitudes that are obviously wrong, such as “Islam is a ROP”. Not only is Obama not nice, I believe he’s evil. He is a racist, a corrupt official (Solyndra anyone?), and has set himself the task of destroying the Church. He should also be called the Slaver-in-chief as he actively and consciously seeks to make more people dependent on food stamps and other government heroin-like services, and he is seeking to destroy the work requirement of welfare. What do you call someone who seeks to enslave people in circumstances just above subsistence just to get votes?
