Obama believes racial equality has improved during his presidency

Those are not the facts but facts never matter when Barack Obama is involved.

Barack Obama has been in overdrive in trying to boost his appeal to his base (blacks and Hispanics, in particular) as he loses the respect of the rest of America.

His latest bid to bolster his support among his most loyal of supporters is his recent claim that racial equality has improved under his reign. He did this in an interview with Univision-the Spanish-language network controlled by one of his most generous donors.

Justin Sink reports at The Hill  that President Obama believes racial equality has improved during his tenure, partially thanks to policies — including his signature health care law — undertaken by his administration.

“If you look at the history of race in America, it’s usually not a single moment where everything gets solved — it’s a process,” Obama said in an interview Tuesday with Univision. “I think that because of our policies, there’s more equality than when I came in. With respect to health care, with respect to access to college, with respect to opportunity. I think because of the work Eric Holder has done under my direction I think the criminal justice system has improved.” 

He may avoid and mock Fox News (just the news network with by far the highest ratings in America) but finds appearing on the Black Entertainment Network and Univision more congenial environments.

But what are the facts?

Deroy Murdock writes at the National Review that , in fact, black Americans are worse off under Obama

• When Obama entered office on January 20, 2009, U.S. unemployment stood at 7.8 percent. By April 2014

He doesn’t believe it. He’s a liar.

His plan was always to create racial division in this country that he so despises.


Yup. I would have delusional before, but I have learned --this is it EXACTLY!

Just like “Alice Through the Looking Glass”, reality is inverted and distorted, and then regurgitated as clean, shiney, and new.
