'Pet peeve of mine: People who have been successful and don't realize they've been lucky.'

Obama also criticized people who are "successful and don’t realize they've been lucky."

To be young, gifted, and black.
I’m a Christian, said the hateful bigot.
And Barry, please be confident in your Halfness.
Let’s see if Professor Obama goes back to the hood and helps others to reach their aspirations.
ONLY BLACK LIVES MATTER!! This will end soon.
This POS obuma and big butt moose cell could have done so much for the Black Community and they turned their backs on them...
These two POSs don't care and never did about anybody but themselves and the Muslim Brotherhood...she goes around claiming that she's a decedent of slavery, maybe she is, maybe she isn't, I could care less about the tranny..
But obuma saying his daddy marched with MLK in Selma, BS to the highest degree..
The sooner these two POSs get out of town the better...the sun is going down!!!
Another variation on "You didn't build that."
He doesn't realize the irony of his statement does he?
Coming from a puke with ABSOLUTELY ZERO skills or talent. Who ONLY knows of success because of luck.
Succeed:
1 to do what you are trying to do : to achieve the correct or desired result
2 to happen in the planned or desired way
Mediocrity (Otherwise known as Obama):
1 the quality of something that is not very good : the quality or state of being mediocre
2 a person who does not have the special ability to do something well
Happenstance:
something that happens by chance
So those who are successful are lucky and you know the
“those” are us white folk. He just told them no matter what dont compromise your blackness for success. The white folk are still keeping you down. We now have a president who could be a role model but is remains a cretan agitator from the streets

That would be all well and good if the speaker were a black man instead of a mulatto.
That was the watershed in the mid-’60s.
Until then, it was blacks wanting to be middle-class citizens like everyone else, King’s “content of character,” etc.
After that, it was “don’t follow the white man’s values,” Stokely Carmichael, Black Panthers.
With predictable results.
I hope a crow craps on him and he jumps and slips on a banana peel and gets run over by a truck and lives for 49 days and dies of a blocked intestine....after Trump gets in. F U barky, you just flat suck.
He’s projecting.
People who are projecting never do.
There is an old saying in golf, the more I practice, it seems the luckier I get...... Also could be as I the harder you work , the luckier you get...
