Full Title: I 'absolutely' suffered racism in office, says Obama: Some Americans' 'primary concern about me has been that I seem foreign'
President Barack Obama says the color of his skin has 'absolutely' contributed to white Americans' negative perceptions of his time in office.
The president said in a Wednesday special looking back on his legacy, 'I think there's a reason why attitudes about my presidency among whites in Northern states are very different from whites in Southern states.
'Are there folks whose primary concern about me has been that I seem foreign, the other? Are those who champion the "birther" movement feeding off of bias? Absolutely,' he told CNN's Fareed Zakaria.
David Axelrod, a senior advisor to Obama at the White House who now runs the Chicago Institute of Politics, concurred.
'It's indisputable that there was a ferocity to the opposition and a lack of respect to him that was a function of race,' Axelrod told CNN, where he's also paid to work as a contributor.

We weren't against his radical, anti-American, anti-Constitutional agenda, we were against him because of his skin color.
What a petty, whining, belligerent child.
Good riddance!
Still hiding behind his skin.
I’m waiting for full meltdown mode. This is a teaser.
Musta been on Martha’s Vineyard.
It ain’t your skin color we had the problem with Mr. Stompyfeet.
Most Americans are very colorblind, but we do have high standards for character, of which you are sorely lacking.
There’s got to be a reason I’m a complete failure, and anything I’ve done will probably be wiped away in 3 months
Its RACISM!!
You also suffered 179 golf games at taxpayer expense and lavish vacations in Hawaii and Martha’s Vineyeard where you every need was seen to. Your supporters apparently bought you a house or two. Your life sucks, Barack.
What race is “foreign”, soon-to-be-private citizen Obama?
It’s pretty clear that Obama was against certain groups of his constituents because of their skin color.
Yep, or to put it another way:
“It’s not the blackness of your skin, it’s the blackness of your soul”
Paging Boo Hoo Girl. Oh Boo Hoo Girl?
Actually it was because his policies were big government anti-capitalist politically correct BS.
Since Obama only did what Soros told Nancy and Harry to tell him to do, anybody complaining was obviously racist.
You forgot the fly...
Major Like!!
Got news for you, bro O: I despise your commie white half as much as I do your muzzie dark half.
It’s a wonder how “white folks” suddenly, after voting him into office twice, became racist now that he no longer needs their votes. What a joke.
The country elected Obama. If they were racist, that would not have happened. The race card is dog-eared from overuse.
