Yeah, these comments sound awful.

“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 said in the article by David Remnick, appearing in the magazine’s Jan. 27 edition.

“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 said in his most direct comments on how race has affected his political standing since he’s been in office.

Seems like he addressed both sides of the coin. What's so awful about him saying that?

Taken at face value, he's right.

Yeah, quoting the whole comment doesn't exactly do him any favors, either.
