Now that you, Barack Hussein Obama, have been anointed as our "transcendent" racial leader, we, your fellow black Americans citizens and members of the National Black Republican Association, request that you demand an apology from black Democrat David Ehrenstein and the "Los Angeles Times" for denigrating you as a "Magic Negro" in an article entitled "Obama the 'Magic Negro' " written by Ehrernstein and printed in the "Los Angeles Times" on March 19, 2007 with the subtitle: "The Illinois senator lends himself to white America's idealized, less-than-real black man."
Your demand for such an apology would be the catalyst for the healing of our nation's racial wounds inflicted upon us by the 150-years of race-baiting by the Democratic Party for partisan political gain.
For your convenience, below is a link to the "Los Angeles Times" article.

To further assist you, below is a link to the political satire song "Barack the Magic Negro" that is a parody mocking Ehrenstein and the "Los Angeles Times."

Dont hold yer breath
Good job, NBRA.
Best remedy to Democrat racism in American politics is to throw it in their face each and every time they do it....
Throw it in their face until the national media, collectively and individually, is forced to publish and admit the truth of LONG-TIME disrespect of blacks and other minorities.
Throw it in their face until the narrative is changed, for ever.
BTTT!
That was my exact point. I argued with some liberals (who never even listened to the song) that they should call for Ehrenstein to be fired. I based this on the number of times they called Saltsman a racist and describing how offended they were by him and that he should be run out of politics.
