Its kind of an amazing, interesting moment because he looks so young but he sounds exactly the same. Its a really interesting moment in his career, hed always try to take this conciliatory middle ground, particularly around issues of race. This was a moment he couldnt there was an intense, divisive moment at Harvard where Derrick Bell was threatening to quit if they did not increase divserity in hiring and everyone had to choose to side and he ultimately chose to side with Bell and he gave this very classic Obama speech.
And whats classic about it is its race and gender! Mitchell exclaimed. Its the very issues we are talking about today, its issues of gender that have certainly taken hold in the republican campaign and we have heard what the president said when he called Sandra Fluke and spoke out about it at his press conference.
It gives you a sense of how adept he is at navigating these issues in public and how look hes been doing it and how much practice hes has, Smith noted.

Trying to get out ahead of the story by citing the edited version of the tape. Hannity will have the full length version tonight.
So how likely is it that Andrew’s ghost is releasing all he has on The One today?
Looks like an Obama bum kissing media trap to me. Once he has everyone’s attention and the media has desparately spent their wad...ba boom! Time will tell. :)
Even if the tape shows Obama screaming “Black Power” and “Kill Whitey”, the media will make excuses and try to whitewash it.
I don’t think this will have much impact.
Same here.
jmho....
Correct. The right already knows he is a commie and the left don't care.

For her gang, everything is about "race and gender."
And they're the one's making "issues of gender" a big deal in the presidential race. I doubt the candidates have much interest.
I can't believe people listen to this hoo-hah.*

*I'm using "hoo-hah" to mean "commotion" but I looked it up and slang dictionaries say it refers to female sex organs.
Race and gender! Race and gender!
That pretty much Explains her attitude.
It’s hysterical to watch this all play out. This video was hidden for years. And on the day Breitbart is set to release it, the lib media suddenly finds it, edits it, airs it and tries to create a narrative that is beneficial to Obama. And they do it with a straight face.
It would be funny if it weren’t so corrupt.
Well if this is it ... I am utterly underwhelmed. Guess I”ll wait and see what Hannity has.
I’m afraid the rest of the tape will just be Professor Bell and we’ll be expected to connect his rantings with Obama because he introduced him.
If that’s the case it will be a disappointment. I so hope I’m wrong.
An Alinskyite socialist(Obama) is not a radical?...
Nazi or Stalinist propagandists would be proud of that statement..
It was brilliant tactics when leftist teachers Unions stopped teaching American and World History in our schools.. and when they stopped teaching Civics it was iceing on a malicious cake..
Many dont know Santo and Romney are OWNED by the Unions..
I think we are screwed.. the fix is in for Zero..
Looks like he was athletic too. Must have been on the Harvard Pocket Pool team.
“I dont think this will have much impact.”
That’s probably because you live in a liberal sh#thole. Pull up your life, move and enjoy some quality time with like-minded patriots and conservatives.
I was impressed 0bama spoke without a TOTUS.
I guess that’s how we can tell when he is sincere
Its a really interesting moment in his career, hed always try to take this conciliatory middle ground, particularly around issues of race.

*Their confusion made me question my own racial credentials all over again. To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students.

Tim was not a conscious brother. Tim wore argyle sweaters and pressed jeans and talked like Beaver Cleaver. His white girlfriend was probably waiting for him up in his room, listening to country music. Dreams From My Father,
After all, there were thousands of so-called campus radicals, most of them white and tenured and happily tolerated. No, it remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.Dreams From My Father,
It’s oh, just f’in SHUT UP!!!!!!! Nothing else.
