President's Brother: As Young Man Obama 'Acted Too Black'
Newsmax ^ | February 27, 2014 | Cathy Burke

Posted on 02/28/2014 9:53:29 AM PST by maggief

President Barack Obama places "politics before family," his Kenya-born half-brother Mark Obama Ndesandjo said in an exclusive Newsmax interview.

And when the two men first met, the man who went on to be president appeared to be acting "too black" for his African-raised sibling.

"When we met in '88 he was very much influenced by African nationalists and also at the same time had strong opinions about the roles of independence," Ndesandjo said on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV.

Ndesandjo, whose book "Cultures: My Odyssey of Self-Discovery" explores the complicated relationship between the brothers, said the first time he met Barack, "it was a very powerful meeting." We had very different views about a couple of things... there was a cultural clash because I mentioned in my book that I felt that he thought that I was too white and I felt he was too black.

Obama doesn’t know what he is. I do but I won’t write it for fear of being banned.

Bank on it... “O” will profess to be ANYTHING that it is advantageous for him to be!

At this he is consummately adroit and has no compunction whatsoever about jumping through his own rectum as often as it is necessary or convenient to do!

The jerk is a cypher and a worthless zero. PERIOD

B0 Soebarkah knew “everything” and had his mind made up at an early age. He does not know how to listen or comprehend ideas outside his preconceived notions. He has no original thoughts.

He never listened to the advice of Mr. Wizard from Tutor Turtle:

“Be what you is and not what you is not. Folks that is what they is, is the happiest lot.”

Where ever he is he is acting because he has no idea who he really is.

LOL! Just like the white boys and girls do. Quite possibly the most annoying people on the planet. Apart from politicians and liberal professors that is.

I know quite a few Africans and Caribbean-Africans. The behavior of “black-America” is a puzzle to them, as is the assumption of some kind of “brotherhood.”

there was an article a couple of days ago about the characteristics Google looks for in new employees.

One was the ability to recognize when you are wrong and need to re-think things and step back and let others lead the project.

Zero displays absolutely no ability to see that his policies are dead wrong and then act accordingly. If he were a businessman he’d go bankrupt.

Most interesting. I wonder if Mark will mention his brother David in the next segment.
