This is alil off topic
But Im more distrubed by the Democratic Party's propensity for taking the blk vote for granted
Than the GOP isn't any better
With that said
IMHO blk folk aren't just sitting waiting to be told to "vote" or too lazy to do so, they are disillusioned with the political system ...and rightfully so
Blk employment has been twice that of whites for generations... The unemployment rate for young blk people is even more abysmal ...our neighborhoods have the worst public schools ...our men are being hunted and killed by law enforcement around the country ... I could go on and on ....
Things that can only be addressed on a national level
But no politician wants to talk about it seriously yet they expect us to vote ...we are to take the bread crumbs they give us and close our mouths
Sigh...
Anyways I digress, vote people ... Hopefully things will eventually get better lol

FOH house ? Obamaobnoxiouslyfresh wrote: »Oh my Goooooooooooooooood
He used a colloquial expression to a black audience. The horror
I'm gonna die! This is awful. How dare he? I'm so insulted.....So nasty and rude! What's he gonna do next...
lol @ Furgeson, not the Ferguson with 2/3rds black population with white elected officials, kinda makes the case for what Obama said even stronger
Nobody's denying the message...obviously...its the delivery. He doesnt speak this familair or dumbed down to white people.
And before you say 'he's familiar bc he's black' ...he doesnt have the equity to pull that ? b/c he doesnt rep anything 'traditonally black' elsewhere, at any other time. Which im good with, but dont try it now, in this way.
You gotta connect some fukin dots man. When Ferguson went down he said 'Now is the time to listen, not to protest'. If you cant hear and feel the condescending, removed, 'puppet' (cliche, but true) nature of these statements then you blind. You...you ? -riding Obama fam. In both occaisions it sounds like he's the voice of white america. He sounds like the 1 black employee they find to calm down the black upset customer.
And damnit thats like the 4th one, Im out of good ass examples if you dont get it you aint built to.
He reps being "traditionally black" all the time... anytime blacks have a civil issue in america he speaks on it... the ? has a black family... speaks on basketball and other ? that blacks can identify with.. is in the loop with black current events... if anyone has the Merritt to say something like this it's him...
btw he can't "dumb down" the way he talks to whites without sounding racist...
bush was a Texas bred dude.. sounded country as hell and was pretty dumb (by presidential standards)... if he said some ? about " get Mary-Louise and tell her to vote this Tuesday" do you think whites would be ? at him?
also I haven't heard a lick of "outraged" about this topic outside of this thread... *shrugs * -
Fact is black people will vote democrat 9/10 regardless of the candidate?. If i was a politician i pander to black folks neither. All i gotta do is show up to some churches meet with rev al be a democrat and boom 96% of the black vote

Again...to the nggas who dont see it. So which one is it?
B/c I thought: 'He isnt the black president , he's everybody's president' (i agree)
Ok, then when you need me Mr. President address me as a constituent, ngga dont come thru talkin bout heeeeeey
in a business setting do you call white folks "nggas", if no you're being very hypocritical
Well sir in a business setting i wouldnt call a black man a ngga. Just like I wouldnt say 'yall', cuss, use slang, etc. Your point?
Y'all?
That's slang? -

Is he really even addressing a black audience? He's campaign stumping at Northwestern University. It's like 6 ? there if you're being generous
Edit: Sorry @Elzo69Renaissance ... 7 -
I get his point. It's just a bad look

Actually the things you think can only be addressed on the national level are actually local and state issues... the REAL issues is people are misguided on how our government works... they think that our government works "top to bottom" when it's actually the reverse... any decisions that are made at the presidents level takes months maybe years for the bottom to see the effects... if you wanna see immediate change the local elections are more important..desertrain10 wrote: »This is alil off topic

His only crime is mixed company.. not so much of a crime but i agree with the first part about the connotation.. But its TRUE there is a segment of ? who dont vote and dont care. Every vote counts.. republicans come out to vote.. we need people to come out to VOTE not just during the presidential elections. -
Obama has a horrible way with words. This is the same dude who condescendingly lectured an entire class of African American male college students at their own graduation. The same man who told black people to lace up their work boots and stop complaining when asked about race and unemployment lol. This isn't the worst he's said, but at the same time, he could've worded it a tad bit better.
B.O. is just one those people who tries too hard to relate, to the point where it seems offensive, as if he's mocking you.
"Hey Keith, glad you could make it. Sit down, man. Wanna watch tv, I got all the channels, BET, UPN, TVOne, you name it. Yeah man, just bought that new Snoop Doggy Dog yesterday if you wanna jam out. Gosh ? it, forgot I had fried chicken on the stove. Wait here."

please say you are just trolling... you acting like he got a white wife... stayed in the suburbs his whole life and is on some Carlton Banks type ? ... Barrack Obama has a genuine black swag.... if anything I think he has to be watered down more than he wants because of his position... -
