Obama: Some People Dislike Me Because They Don't Like That I'm Black
breitbart ^ | 1/19/14

On Sunday, The New Yorker released an interview with President Barack Obama in which the president stated that his approval ratings had been suppressed due to racism. “There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president,” Obama stated. “Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I’m a black president.”

Obama’s current approval rating is down to 39 percent according to Gallup; his approval rating in the black community remains extraordinarily high, although it is significantly lower now than it was when he was re-elected.

Obama’s overall approval ratings have tumbled coincident with the failed rollout of Obamacare, as well as his mishandling of the Syria and Iran crises. Obama’s supporters have often suggested that political difficulties he experiences are attributable to generalized racial anxiety.

In other words "Let's keep talking about racism in this country". The libs need it to survive."

A complete shallow loser in any book.

That’s the only reason that you have a 39% approval rating!

quote “There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president,” Obama stated.

Actually that’s true, i’d say about 1-2%

quote “Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I’m a black president.”

Also true, i’d say about 30%

In response he has destroyed the concept of
“Equal under the Law”
and armed Enemies of the American people.

That’s right, people losing their health insurance that they like and have had for many years and being forced to replace it with insurance that costs 2-3x more in premiums and has a higher deductible had NOTHING to do with your low approval ratings. Keep telling yourself that, Obama.

I loath Obama for his red (Marxist) policies. Could not care less about his race.

That’s all the left has - toss mud at the opposition (be it capitalism, Christianity, whatever), and then play the “poor me” victim card.

It’s a crying sin what Democrats have done to the black community.

Personally I don’t care if he is purple, orange or green, I dislike him for who he is not what color he is. Zero has done more harm to this once great nation than all the armies we have fought in history. He needs to be gone and “yes” I do hate him. I don’t judge him by the color of his skin but by his character......sounds familiar doesn’t it.
