Ummm, Barack Obama’s mom was white and his dad was from Africa. None of his ancestors suffered the indignities of slavery in America, any more than Hillary Clinton’s did.

Having retired a few years ago from a major public (and very liberal) University in Chicago that is located somewhat close to the area where Wright preached in his Church, I know very well the type of Black that attends Wright’s Church, as I worked with many of them. The University I worked at hired many Blacks from the near southside of Chicago as employees. Many of them have a chip on their shoulder about Whitey (and Jews, and surprisingly or maybe not so, against many Orientals too).
As the University hired many Hispanics from the nearby neighborhoods also, it was interesting that most of the Hispanics and Blacks did not like each other either. Then, of course, just to throw more into the melting pot, there were a bunch of Palestinian students at the University also, who would march around with whatever the grievance du jour was on campus. Lots of Chinese students too, as Chinatown was close by, but I never could tell what they were thinking about any of this.
My point being, I know only too well the attitudes of many of the Blacks in that area of Chicago, and it ain’t pretty. Obama is lying to us. He has been indoctrinated for 20 years by his Preacher’s sermons and by his personal friendship with him. That none of it would have rubbed off on him is total nonsense. Beware the wolf in sheep’s clothing. That is Obama. One of the women I worked with was, like Obama, half black and half white. She was embarrassed by the half white part, and tried to out-Black the Blacks in Blackness as a result. Same with Obama, who has two strikes against him in his own Black community. First, he was not born and raised in America, started out life as a Muslim, and until his middle teen years, did not live here. And he lived much of his life in Hawaii, that has many racial types living there, thus somewhat insulated from the Black mainland experience. He has not had the southern Black experience with blatant racism that still existed for many Blacks growing up in this country up until the 60’s hit and the Republicans helped Johnson finally get the Civil Rights Act passed.
Plus, he has that White side to his family, as much as he has tried to hide it up until now when he had to pull his Grandma out of the White family closet in order to throw her under the train. So, Obama, being politically ambitious, joined this radical thinking Blacker than Black Church to add to his “I’m Black” credentials while building his political career. Unfortunately for him, he is now at a point in his political career where all that Black nationalism and hatred of Whitey, Jews, etc. is now a liability rather than a virtue to give him street “cred”. So he first tried to hide his affiliations with his Black Church and its controversial Preacher, and his friendship with Bill Ayers (the 60’s homegrown terrorist, who, by the way, is now a Professor at the University I retired from in Chicago). However, the cat got let out of the bag, and Sean Hannity kept hitting hard at Obama’s Preacher man. And now that which was once of great benefit to him, is now all to his detriment. I guess what went around has now come around. Obama is a very clever, well spoken con artist, hiding his true stripes from the all too often naive public. But you can’t fool all of the people all of the time, and now, as his own Preacher man said when claiming the U.S. deserved what it got when we were attacked on 9/11, “the chickens have come home to roost.”
