Each successful Black person in the USA world marketplace deserves a trophy because each has had to deal with daily career aspects, daily living aspects, and daily racism.
Racism coping includes being harshly judged about every little thing (including that which the critics know nothing about); walking a tightrope between what opposing White people think the Black person should do and what Blacks have to do; and getting around the obstacles that racists deliberately throw.
Although individuals think uniquely, they can be classified based upon the brain’s thinking “centers” (e.g. rational, emotional, self preservation). Ancient Africans used both sides of there brain as a team to do critical, rational, poetic, creative, and visionary thinking.
Perhaps only a fraction of 1% of people can do this—and Obama is one of those. Most important in Critical Thinking is the approach for and the methods used in decision making and problem solving—as opposed to merely possessing specific knowledge. By recognizing his limitations, as all Critical Thinkers do, Obama consults top experts (on opposing sides) and, by appealing to their humanitarian spirit, is able to get their cooperation in giving pertinent information. The best of that information is prioritized, synthesized, and ordered into Plans A, B, and C before he makes a final decision and presents it to the nation. Obama’s African rhythm; style of and substance in speaking (heavily influenced by the Black Preacher); thanking of everybody (including the janitor); self-confidence; and, to the delight of the crowd, talking about sweet potato pie are effective in maintaining a connection with the people.
His creativity introduced an entirely new way of running a campaign, including inspiring millions of people over the internet to volunteer to help his paid employees (whom he gave a year of free health insurance after the election was over); and overcoming the large numbers of racists who refused to vote for a Black man by stimulating millions of nonracists to come out to vote for the first time.
This calls for the hierarchy of people under his direction to know their roles and do it on a moment’s notice. His effectiveness was shown in having orchestrated an extremely disciplined “No drama, Obama” campaign— mainly because Obama maintains control of his people and is “cool” while stressing togetherness, hope, and calmness under pressure.
He remains alert to and prepared for immediate handling of every problem (e.g. the excuses people use for not voting)—taking advantage of opportunities and immediately heading off disadvantages. By having honorable and creative ways of making unlimited amounts of money by online donations, Obama was able to be impactful in his closing argument to the nation.
In it he summarized his basic plan for dealing with an out of control economy by means of the written and the spoken word while showing a connection to all segments of the USA population—White, Black, and Hispanic—in a manner that saw the best within them, as opposed to their faults and differences.
Such unification is what makes Obama a transformational figure. He has continued to emphasize that he is not perfect but will do his best. By stressing every one carry his/her load helps people feel they are team players. What is extremely important for Black parents to note is that his mother would awaken him at 4:00 am to go over his home work—a practice which drove home the absolute necessity for doing mental work. Besides establishing a special and certain time to be with his mother every day, it helped Obama develop a thirst for knowledge and an insatiable appetite for reading. In turn, he has spent time with his daughters in daily readings as, for example, in going through all of the Harry Potter books with his oldest one. He ensures his family is well-cared for in all respects.

“Matter of fact, it seems that using both sides of the brain was a component of early civilization, and has been all but lost by all modern men, including the good Doctor.”
“National Geographic”???
That makes it substantiated???
How, in what way, by what method of analysis and discernment, can any modern person determine, with in degree of affirmative knowledge, HOW ancient humans used their brains.
Answer - THEY CAN’T.
Obama’s path to success is corruption beyond belief among illegal foreign contributions totaling over 300 million .. none of which will be audited.
And ... of course because his skin is Black he got *special* treatment.
Anyone who claims racism is still a problem in the US is either a liar or a Goddamned idiot.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Well, I don’t think I am either one but I think racism is a problem...black racism, that is.
I suspect those who were actually visionary in their thinking chose to leave Africa.
I think true racism is rather rare, prejudice however is quite common, as it should be.
Its called discrimination and that’s what makes us able to make critical decisions to survive.
Even animals do it, and I wager that it takes both sides of the brain in order to discriminate a situation.
The Good Dr. is a dolt, and a whiner.
Look at what a perfect place Africa is.
Quack, quack..
A. You ought not to use the LORD's Name in vain. HE wrote this in stone for our own benefits. Any reference to God should be with reverence and fear.
'Damned idiot' would have sufficed to make your point.
B. I believe racism is a very big problem in the USA. How else to explain the election of an imminently unqualified individual for the Office of Presidency - whose only 'credential' was the color of his skin?
How else can I explain that someone could be elected into any public office while maintaining a 20 year membership in an openly racist organization (the 'church' of Wright - which openly worshiped skin color - over Christ)? A white skinned candidate, who was a member (even for a few months) of an 'Aryan White Identity' 'church' would not even get elected dog-catcher. And rightfully so.
If racism wasn't a problem, Mr. Obama job prospects would be limited to organizing communities...
Filed in dictionary under man-crush.
This is an article he wrote about Africans’ supreme thinking methods. How he figured this all out is beyond me.

(7) examine everything on its multiple planes of its existence — similar to what you do when you shop at different stores. Each store is like a different plane of existence and in each you engage in different types of ideas, thoughts, and feelings.

I am not certain but I think this level of writing comes under the heading of hogwash, it’s either that or horseapples.
I think that what the author really means is that the average person doesn’t really understand Obama because he is much like Clinton, reflecting the views that the audience wants to hear at the time. In the case of Obama, he only reflects some of the values of each group, just enough to make you think that he is just like you. He wears his hat backwards and plays basketball. He pretends to bowl. He supports marriage between a man and a woman only, he supports abortion rights.
Basically, it comes down to the fact that Obama cares nothing about social issues, nor foreign policy. He only cares about the redistribution of wealth. He thinks that after he accomplishes that, the rest will take care of itself.
You are completely correct.
Here’s an example: I work with a woman of mixed race who was raised by her white mother (her father was black and he passed away when she was quite young). She is amazing. The thing about her that makes her stand out finally seeped into my consciousness about two years ago: She does not have a racial chip on her shoulder because that is not what she was taught. As a result, she is going to go far in her career and she’ll do it on her own without help from affirmative action, etc. Everyone is impressed by her pure individuality—not tainted by what we have come to expect with black professionals who are not quite up-to-speed but who “got there” based on the race card.
Part of the black culture, as you point out, is damaging and destructive. The likes of Jesse Jackson still feed on it and it is a kind of cultural corruption based on controlling people. Tragic.
You’re right about that. If I were black I’d be very happy that I grew up here and not in Africa.
What the hell.... it’s all Bush’s fault. Happy New Year.
I don’t understand how he can be a published orthopedic surgeon on the one hand and yet on the other hand put out drivel like this. There must be a market for drivel out there.
Unfortunately, both sides of Barry’s brain are empty.
That part I made up. I don't think NG would make that statement, even if it were true.
That makes it substantiated???
No. But it is true.
We (most people) do not use both 'sides' (conscious and sub-conscious), because we have been taught not to believe in it.
How, in what way, by what method of analysis and discernment, can any modern person determine, with in degree of affirmative knowledge, HOW ancient humans used their brains.
Well, since we aren't using both 'sides', and they were, I'd say a modern person doesn't much stand a chance of understanding 'what' and 'how' they 'thought'.
Wrong. The Western democracies of Great Britain and America led the way.
It’s called “affirmative action.”
See post #7.
Maybe we’ll have a real reckoning on the pathology of black culture, and an all-out confrontation over affirmative action, over the persecution and vilification of white males, and so on...
