The danger Obama and his spinners have with continuing to perpetuate the “Blacks use a different vocabulary than others” is that it implies the “others” are too stupid to understand Blacks.

That could backfire.

I'd say it could backfire. It's a racist statement in and of itself.

The whole concept of blacks using a different vocabulary than whites is ...really disconcerting.

Here we go...the speech begins now..

Very definitely.

The whole sense that they have a racial identity that will never be understood by whitey who is too racist and mean to get it, is a no go.
