President Barack Obama scolded Donald Trump for his bleak description of the African-American community as recent police shootings of black men — and the violent protests that followed them — inject sensitive questions about race into the presidential contest.
America’s first black president took issue with the Republican nominee’s suggestion this week that “African-American communities are absolutely in the worst shape than they’ve ever been in before, ever, ever, ever.”
“I think even most 8-year-olds would tell you that whole slavery thing wasn’t very good for black people. Jim Crow wasn’t very good for black people,” Obama said in an interview that aired Friday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

Obama should visit the south side of Chicongo, at night.
How about that black on black crime
Maybe this racist anti-America loser should visit chicago where he “community organized”...in order to stop the ongoing black-on-black murders that appear to occur daily.
How about Obummer visit a holocaust museum or a VA hospital instead of the Clubhouse.
Had a friend who told me I should watch roots. I saw the first release before she was probably born. We don’t talk much anymore.
Hussein was’t too good for AAs. He’s much like slavery.
I imagine Obama has visited Pearl Harbor, Gettysburg and Normandy. These places apparently didn’t leave much of an impression on him.
Maybe Mr. Obama forgets that what Mr. Trump is doing is working wonders for the Trump Campaign.
Blacks are not living in the black American museum.
>>I think even most 8-year-olds would tell you that whole slavery thing wasn’t very good for black people.
Most 8 year olds don’t understand the true state of pre-Christian Africa or modern Africa. They think its all Lion King over there. Just as the Potato Famine was a terrible thing, it was a great thing to happen to the people who became Irish-Americans.
Humans are supposed to rise about the adversity of their ancestors and not spend centuries wallowing in someone else’s misery. They need to grow up and stop being 8 year olds.
How about why it does not include a Dems invented group called the KKK?
The whole slavery thing wasn’t very good for black people???
Really???? This allegedly brilliant mind talks like that, tells us about the whole slavery thing?????
Hear! Hear! BUMP!!!
the condescending prick needs to just shut up
How about Obummer visiting some Christian churches and Synagogues!!!
Barack Obama is a mealy-mouthed coward who is too afraid to really discuss racism in America.
Obama will never say that a black man started slavery against blacks in the colonies.
Obama will never talk about Chicago’s black on black crime rate being extremely high.
