Imagine
“The data is going to indicate, sadly, that when the Obama administration is over, black people will have lost ground in every single leading economic indicator category. At some point, this group may realize that this man is not good for them. At some point, reality may overpower the imagined significance of half-blackness.

With all due respect:
Fuck the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Junior (pbuh), and everything he stood for.

Smiley is confused. Black people are getting what they want. It's not a job. It's not an improved lifestyle. It is an entitled lifestyle; even Detroit will do. Black people do not want to compete. They do not want to be compared. Obama gets it. His white half gets it. His red half gets it.

Smiley is just laying a guilt trip on Obama. This isn't so much a clarion call for black people to see the truth with their own eyes. It rings more like "Obama, time to start giving away stuff. If you know what's good for you."

"At some point, reality may overpower the imagined significance of half-blackness."
Never gonna happen. The way they see it, its someone else's fault. That was the point of Clinton's idiotic speech at the DNC: you can't blame him, nobody could have fixed things! Its not his fault you don't have work and are doing worse!
He's doing what they'd do if they were in that job: as little work as possible, partying with celebrities and sports stars, playing games and vacationing in hot spots. He's gettin' his, y'all.

Yet ~95% of them re-elected him. And would do so again if he ignored the two-term limit.
But that's not racist.

What's really funny is that if the immigration bill passes, blacks are going to be even more marginalized. Latinos don't like blacks and blacks don't like Latinos.
Difference is, Latinos will cut off heads. Blacks are already being run out of neighborhoods in CA. When they start taking over the Democratic Party, they'll push out the blacks.
I can learn Spanish easily enough.
Heh.
