President Obama believes racial equality has improved during his tenure, partially thanks to policies — including his signature health care law — undertaken by his administration.

“If you look at the history of race in America, it’s usually not a single moment where everything gets solved — it’s a process,” Obama said in an interview Tuesday with Univision. “I think that because of our policies, there’s more equality than when I came in. With respect to health care, with respect to access to college, with respect to opportunity. I think because of the work Eric Holder has done under my direction i think the criminal justice system has improved.”

Obama added that when talking to members of his daughters’ generation, “their attitudes absolutely are better when it comes to race.”

There should be serious psychological testing of all presidential candidates. They sure missed this one.

Yea, we are so stupid. After all Gruber said we were.

Alinsky’s methods do little to lessen racial animosity!

Sometimes there are really no words for his lunacy.

[llevrok]

Is he totally delusional ?

IMHO, The divide(s) between gay and straight, black and white, men and women, etc is far wider today than it was 6+ years ago.

Seems to me I've seen reports of a few psychological "studies" showing that conservatives have all kinds of mental deficiencies.

In this view, it appears the wrong guy has the mic

"If you look at the history of race in America, . . . "

As in "pivot and focus like a laser on it?" Or "make it my life's ambition to talk about 'race problems' and profit from them?"

[Utilizer]

Just looking at his public photos should tell you straight off that he knows nothing about what a “process” is. The flat expression, the flat gaze, the flat platitudes...

The hair...

Why am I reminded of the Naval officer on trial rolling ball bearings in his hand as he cracked up over strawberries?

Yeah The Caine Mutiny.

[bluejean]

72-hour hold while papers are processed to have this demented maniac committed to an institution for an EXTENDED period of time!!! Please! OMG!!!

[okie01]

Yeah The Caine Mutiny.

Captain Queeg was twice the man Obama is.

What he means is that he has equalized incomes by bringing down whites.

Are you chitting me?

This dude is on crack. No one but a democrat would believe such a statement.

It does re-enforce my theory that all democrats are located somewhere on the left side of the IQ bell curve.

[jsanders2001]

Just used the wrong word; he meant “division”

“And, pissing a cup once a week.”

Good point. I forgot that factor (and others).
