Is Michelle really a wildebeest? She doesn't look abnormally large to me?

I agree he is spinning the negativity by pulling the racial card, but calling her a beast doesn't help you or the argument.

I dislike this man for his horrible policies and inability to lead as a president should. I dislike him because he is a complete liar and wreaks havoc upon the constitution. I don't like Obama because he is far from transparent and is dishonest and misuses the agencies he has influence over. Color has nothing to do with it unless it is red, because that is what I see out of anger when I see him or hear him speak.

Obama is race baiting?

I'm shocked! Shocked I tell ya!

He is easily the most divisive president we've ever had.

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.

To be fair, he also said that many people blindly support him because of his skin, too.

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

That pretty much sums it up for me.

Taken at face value, he's right.

President Barack Obama said that racial tensions may have softened his popularity among white voters within the last two years, according to a story posted on the New Yorker magazine’s website today.


As to that, I second these comments below the article:

Let me get this straight... This guy is in his second term as President and he believes that his popularity is down over the past 2 years because people just discovered that he is black???? okie dokie

Was he less black when his approval rating was 70%? Or was his incompetence less obvious

If they disapprove of him because he's black, why is his approval rating JUST NOW going in the dumpster? Anybody with an IQ above room temperature knows he's full of shite.

The man who cannot fail....Barack Hussein Obama.

What a race-baiting joke.

On the one hand, he's probably right. On the other, I'd rather him have said that he hoped race wouldn't be an issue.

Did he bring it up out of the blue, or was he asked specifically about race? I couldn't tell from what was written.

Your thread title is misleading. Nothing he said was incorrect. The article makes it seem like Obama thinks his approval is because of racism but that quote doesn't indicate that's his belief. It's the article's opinion.

I would agree that there are a select few who can't stand having a black president, and there are some who support him no matter what just because he is black.
