Although the President has shied away from race matters in the past,

He's the president and can do whatever he wants.

So he's changing the job description of "Parole Officer" to "Brother Keeper"?

That mentoring is needed and can be a life transforming intervention is not disputed. I would not want the author of the poem ‘Pop’ touching it at any stage however.

True brotherhood would be all of us helping one another, not just black youth helping only black youth.

It’s always about the words and the slogan with this guy. Never the action.

I suppose this theme “my brother’s keeper” instead of, say, one to promote families made up of married, heterosexual spouses, allows him to continue to promote gay rights’ agendas.

Isn’t it racist to have a program for young men of color?

Liberals sometimes tell us it’s racist to talk about black gang members and such, as they tell us that there are white boys who get in trouble with the law.

So let’s hold the liberals to their criteria, and talk about programs for all troubled boys and young men, not just “young men of color”.

Did this author just seriously write that?

And yet he does nothing for his brother in Kenya who lives in a hut.

Oh wait! I forgot he can’t vote.

Well, maybe the program is to keep blacks from killing blacks. But the looney left is going to turn on him big time if they think he's gone even a little biblical on them.

I’m glad you mention that Cain and Abel story.

Obama has said that he was attracted to Christianity by tenets such as our being our brother’s keeper and our sister’s keeper.

For Obama to completely misinterpret and mangle a Bible story shows how little he really understands Christianity. Yet he cites this as his reason for being a Christian.
