| African-Americans and Obama (Posted on 10/13/12 at 2:56 pm)
Was watching tv last night and they were hammering a black person on tv because she said she MIGHT vote for Romney. They were calling her a traitor and how could she, etc. Why can't people vote for someone based on policy and not because of their skin color. I remember hearing a poll in 2008 saying that 100% of blacks in certain areas of the country voted for Obama but I bet most couldn't tell you his top three policies that they agreed with him on. Saw a stat the other day that floored me. Since Obama has taken office the Black unemployment rate has gone from 10% to 13.5%

Progressivism at work. They've been indoctrinated by white liberal communists to hate America and capitalism. Divide and conquer !

The poliboard isn't a demographic. Dems strength is turning specific demographic groups against the others in an us vs them mentality. It's pure exploitation

The liberals, like Obama, have fricked over the black population for 40 years...but they hold the purse strings so that the blacks are afraid to " lose their entitlements." Look at the inner city failures, in areas controlled by the libs for 40 Yrs...how has that worked out? I have seen reputable analysis that 20% of black voters have a clue and their vote is split between dems and reps, but the other 80% vote dems, because the dems scare them into buying in that they can't better themselves and that they should be afraid. There is nothing resembling tolerance on the left...they want to shut down talk radio and focus on promoting govt funded NPR and they are cruel to those with differing opinions...end free speech on religion, except Islam, abuse those with differing opinions and color opponents with hate speech. It is a fricking joke!

Obama hasn't done anything to them. The false hope that their salvation relies in the hands of government is the problem. As it increases so will the issues within that "community." Funny, folks on the left love to tout the increasing poor class over the past 40=-50 years, about the time the "great society" kicked off. So the war on poverty seems to be a failure

Remember the libs trying to scare folks about Reagon...right before he won 47 and 49 States in his two elections. They said we needed a unilateral freeze...a-holes like Biden...and he stayed steady. They said he would start WWIII...a-holes like Biden. What did Reagan do...peace through strength? He walked away from Gorbachev in Iceland, told Gorbachev to "tear down this wall" and ENDED the Cold War without firing a shot! He call Evil what it was...EVIL...just like the EVIL Muslim extremists today!

Yes he is...he furthers the liberal game plan to scare them, keep them dumbed down and dependent, by creating more and more Pauls in the black population, but it has failed. He revered the reverend Wright and spent years agitating blacks in Chicago, as an extremist, anti-American agitator...not helping them, but convincing them they needed hand outs permanently and generationally. Guess what...there are now not enough Peters to pay those Pauls. Dude, things are bad...while we export jobs, borrow from China, sell assets and land to China. The dependent, crime ridden, population is a drain on society that we may never be able to unburden our country of.

That's just party, racial and class division, and it's a Democrat/Republican thing. Obama just plays the game.

The US actually belittles itself spending as much time and money as we do on the extremists.

Wasn't there a precinct in Philly in 2008 where Obama got 103% of the votes cast?

Obama in 2007 told the black clergy, in the now infamous speech, that they were discriminated against after Katrina, when in reality, many white victims of Katrina existed, the federal govt did give them the Stafford money without conditions or matching and ironically, the guy himself voted against it. He race baits, scares and even speaks with different enunciation when speaking to the black population...that speech was unbelievable.

Why can't white people comprehend that black folk as a people are proud of this man, seeing one of our own ascend to the highest office in the land? I've watched him get sabatoged by the R's(especially Congress) for 3 1/2. We know what he has to deal with because that has been our history in a predominately white society. He will get 95% of our vote period.
