Now, as he departs office, those hopes have largely evaporated. Tensions between African-American communities and police departments have deteriorated following a slate of high-profile shootings of unarmed black men. ...
A majority of Americans now say relations between blacks and whites have worsened since Obama took office.
Obama has said he never believed his election could completely erase centuries of racial conflict in America. But the decline in racial ties is nonetheless an ironic legacy for the first African-American president, one Fareed Zakaria explores in the CNN Special Report "The Legacy of Barack Obama" airing Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET. In interviews, Obama and those who worked closely with him identify a strain of racial bias that hardened against the President, even as his election crumbled a historic racial wall.

POS mentally deficient juvenile......
It blew up in his face when he inserted himself in the Ferguson MO unrest and took sides.
Previous to that was the ‘police acted stupidly’ remark early in his presidency. He tried to quell that wildfire with a ‘beer summit’.
He did about as much for race relations as he did for Middle East policy and economic policy and healthcare. Everything he did turned into a disaster, starting with Fast and Furious — selling weapons to drug dealers. Did he think of that ‘genius’ idea on his own?
I won't be watching. But, it would be interesting to see how they try to pull this one off.
Let’s not forget when he injected the Injustice Department into the Trayvon Martin case, even though the evidence showed Zimmerman was the victim and defended himself. Trayvon unfortunately tried to play the Knockout Game on someone who fought back and had a gun.
I’d like to add two other accomplishments of Barry’s:
1.) he’s the greatest gun salesman in the U.S., and
2.) he’s decimated the Democrat Party.
So, he’s not all bad.
Obama’s prime mission was to ensure that racial preferences remain forever; his own inferiority complex dovetailed well with the government’s view that blacks, Hispanics, and women are genetically inferior to white & Asian men.
Affirmative action/racial preferences guarantees racial strife forever.
You beat me to it. Obama and candid don’t belong together in the same sentence.
The dust bin of history is now wide open so that Barrack Obama may enter as America’s Divider in Chief.
Personally I canno wait to see hgimn absolutely gobe, never to again haunt or threaten the People with his black nationalist socialist ideology.
Obama was no man of peace. He used NATO to destroy US ally Libya, based upon the mere notion of his personal political correctness. Hundreds of thousands have died as a result in North Africa, and he destroyed the 8th wonder of the world, The Great Man Made River of the desert aquifer, depriving thousands of Libyans of water resulting in genocidal death through lack o f water and starvation. You won’t read about that in any liberal progressive rag.
No, Obam,a is a stone hearted , falsely superior feeling psychopomp who failed miserably. According to history he will be defined by his ideology of Liberal Fascism.

Good riddance to the most unAmerican POS turd of a president the nation has ever seen.Into the dust bin you whining POS psychopomp. Freedom has prevailed.
Obama’s incitement from almost day one is on the record.
“...they..., we’ll bring a gun.”
Racial healing..., Obama style.
I think that was Emmanuel's idea to create a "crisis" that could used as an excuse to whittle away at the 2A.
Obamas prime mission was to ensure that racial preferences remain forever; his own inferiority complex dovetailed well with the governments view that blacks, Hispanics, and women are genetically inferior to white & Asian men.
Affirmative action/racial preferences guarantees racial strife forever.
The irony is Obama grew up in an upper middle-class white family and went to one of the best prep schools in the country.
It can be boiled down thusly: “Kill Whitey.”
The leftist gets up every morning, looks in the mirror, checks his skin color, and his day is set. If he is dark skinned, he is a victim, and can do whatever he wants without incurring personal responsibility. If he is white, he is an oppressor, but he can reduce his guilt by being an anti-white racist.
Leftists CHOOSE to live this way.
It’s very clear that he has benefited from racial preferences; he isn’t smart (and knows it), so he spent eight years talking to ‘hoodrats.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he set fire to the White House as he walks out the door.
If history is honest, Obama will go down as a failure in every way. his biggest failure will be race relations. He had a truly historic opportunity to stand up forcefully and proudly to put an end to the racial nonsense in this nation. And, dare I say, the world. BUT. a liberal is a liberal is a liberal. Progressive uber-alles. Racial and ethnic harmony is the antithesis to liberal democrat power. Democrats MUST keep us all divided in to angry little groups to keep their power.
Yes and then he has the audacity to use his fake black dialect on them and they don’t even call him out for a micro-aggression!
LOL No, he immediately put it in his mouth and began to suck on it. Nicotine craving got the best of him and no chewing gum. He believed it was candy just as he believes he has a legacy.
