Stevie Wonder decries racism against Obama during Andrae Crouch eulogy
Washington Times ^ | January 29, 2015 | Jessica Chasmar

While performing the eulogy for gospel music legend Andraé Crouch, Stevie Wonder decried what he believes is racism against President Obama, arguing that despite the president’s best efforts, too many Americans dislike him simply because he’s black.

“For me, seeing the world and visualizing in my mind what is going on, some of it is such a heartbreak,” Mr. Wonder said while softly playing the piano at the Jan. 21 funeral for Crouch in Los Angeles.

“We live in a time where I believe we have a president that truly wanted to see the world come together, to see this nation come together, but yet too much, too many people are judging their dislike of him based on the color of his skin,” he said, receiving applause.

“And I know there are some who say ‘no, that’s not true,’ but I’m telling you what I see,” Mr. Wonder added.

Stevie has no explanation for why the so-called "racists" who don't like Obama, do like Mia Love, Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas, Larry Elder, Star Parker, Thomas Sowell, and Walter Williams.

Here are 957 well sourced examples of Obama’s lying, lawbreaking, corruption, cronyism, hypocrisy, waste, etc., and none of them have anything to do with Obama's skin color:

Well, Stevie is blind.

not to mention the fact that over 95% of the black overwhelmingly voted for the man irrespective of skin color.....

(and the pot can’t call the kettle black, cuzz the train’s running down the same ole track)

It’s too bad they can’t look at the content of the man. They put him in a second term. Fools. Ferguson fools.

That sucks. The mans a brilliant musician but apparently a social moron. His song “If” is perhaps one the best love songs I’ve heard in any language. Obama has him sipping from the cool aid...

This is a sensitive topic since Stevie is blind. But, as he is blind, you have to question his understanding of racism and bigotry and those issues. How does he perceive the world and issues in our world when he lacks sight?

Obama never would have won without millions of “racist” white votes.

I don’t get it. Did people think less of the late Andrae Crouch because he was black? Do people think less of Stevie Wonder because he is black? If not, why would they think less of Barack Obama because he is black?

Stevie, Stevie, Stevie,

Your president is simply a dumb *sshole.

Nothing to do with race.

Everything to do with no brain.
