President Barack Obama, breaking his silence on the George Zimmerman acquittal, said Friday that many African-Americans believe that “both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different” if Trayvon Martin had been white. “You know, when Trayvon Martin was first shot, I said that this could have been my son,” Obama said somberly during a surprise appearance in the White House briefing room. “Another way of saying that is Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago.” In searingly personal terms, Obama described his personal experience with race-based prejudice. “There are very few African-American men in this country who haven’t had the experience of being followed when they were shopping in a department store -- that includes me,” he said.

>>Tell us about the 13 month old boy, Antonio West who was shot in the face, Obama.<<
DAMN straight! Or how about that elderly couple in OK or AL? Or the young couple Channon and her boyfriend?
Let’s have a discussion about THAT!!!!!
Don't buy into that. It's just the latest meme to remove guilt from Trayvon for attacking George Zimmerman. Liberals are doing everything they can to invent some motivator for Martin's actions that day.
In truth, he was just acting out his thug persona. Zimmerman 'dissed' him by following him, and THAT was all the motivation he needed to pound GZ into the pavement.
Everytime he speaks we go backwards ten years in the race issue...
He’s losing black voters over jobs and same sex marriage. After four and a half years they expected America’s first ‘black’ President to have fixed some of the problems they elected him to fix.
So how do you move them back to your block - race bait.
I wasn't aware he was running again.
Imagining that makes me smile.
Sit down and put some ice on it. Once the spinning stops lie down and do not FReep for at least 24 hours. Ping me in the evening.
George Zimmerman was only following obama’s own “Presidential” advice. He was following this , “If they bring knife to the fight, we bring a gun to the fight”.
Barry was born into a privileged white family that supported his every whim, his indifferent grades, his teenage Hawaiian white boy drug use, and didn’t even complain when he dumped them because he thought it would be more advantageous for him to go on to aother “incarnation,” whether it was Indonesian student, black radical, whatever.
He’s a sociopath. Martin was just a stupid thuglet who probably would have been better if his biological dad hadn’t dumped the stepmother who raised him. She appears to have been the only decent influence in Martin’s life.
As for Obama, he’s such a sociopath, who knows where he comes from?
But one thing even I can tell you is that the very white-appearing Obama (he looks exactly like his purported grandfather, only with a tan) has nothing in common with Martin.
Obama knows it too, and he’s just trying to rally all the uninformed and desperate black people who are his base. What disgusting, cynical words from this evil man.
I swear to GAWD, this guy is the biggest POS that walks the face of the earth...
All about him, all the time..
(Hear that one, NSA??? Come get me!!!)
OK, Everyone, since Oracist wants to be forever associated with Trayvon, let’s call Trayvon: “TrayBama” since they’re just soooo related. /sarc
Seriously, spread around the term “TrayBama” and make it stick!
Here’s a collection of good posts from this thread on TrayBama here:
-—”‘could have been me 35 years ago...” -That would be an insult to Trayvon, actually.
-—I doubt the president would have assaulted a neighborhood watch person 35 years ago. Obama is definitely evil & dishonest, but he’s not an aggressive fighter-type.
-—As always, it’s about Obama (President Narcissus).
-—All his life Obama has been the beneficiary of being Black. He had no reason to rise above being a common laborer if he had been White.
-—The man is an agitator through and through. Trying to conjure up images of him ending up the same way as Trayvon in peoples minds. Low down dirty politicking “how can i keep all my other scandals out of the news” b.s.
Obama is revolting. If he’s ever been profiled its been by white guilt ridden liberals who’ve kissed his ass his entire life. There’s nothing worse than these Obama lickspittles. He’s president because he’s black, not in spite of his being black. He was fast tracked his entire career because of his color. He is a complete mediocrity.
Zero the racist scumbag running his mouth again. He had no problem speaking in Atlanta 2007 on his promotional tour alongside New Black Pamper bigots, nor does his hag wife the First Wookie have a problem posing in photos with extremists like Farrakhan’s wife.
“i think barry is exactly like trayvon.”
Except that, more than likely, not even Trayvon would have ‘hung out’ (pardon pun) in Chicago gay bath houses.

Simple, his ass is on fire (IRS, Benghazi, Obamacare NSA...) This is what he does...Riots would be a nice diversion!
He could’ve been Christopher Stevens, Glen Doherty, Ty Woods or Sean Smith too. And he would’ve EXPECTED his Commander-In-Chief to NOT abandon him to die then LIE about it afterwards, too..
“Will just one politician come out and condemn obama for this and stand with the Zimmermans? One?”
Sorry, ain’t likely to happen, those punks ALWAYS pick safe venues where they can recite their sound bites and NOT get challenged! He is such a LIAR! First of all he grew up outside the US, and when he lived here it was a privileged life! Women frozen in fear of a skinny, goofy looking black guy with big ears who just stepped into the elevator? ROTFLMAO!!! Now if it were BILL CLINTON on the elevator, I could understand the fear;)
