Barthwell also said the president was unusually reserved, even in the face of full-on attacks from Romney - a possible sign, he suggested, of Obama's acute awareness of the politics of race. "It’s possible he doesn't want to appear to be the angry-black man type,"

So Obama couldn't respond to Romney because he didn't want to appear to be the angry black man type.

It appears that it is Barthwell's "acute awareness of the politics of race" that is driving his preference.

“So Obama couldn’t respond to Romney because he didn’t want to appear to be the angry black man type.”

Does anyone else notice there seems to be a pattern lately with the campaign and the MSM pushing the ‘angry black man’ concerns?

obama tape (paraphrased): The ‘black man’ feels pushed down - experiences a quiet riot within - when he’s reached his limit (obama losing?) then he loses it and riots for real.

Tweets: Published tweets from after the debate of (supposedly) black people saying if obama loses the election, they’re going to do ______ to whites (fill in the blank).

obama: Rich people are for non-violence. They don’t want people taking their stuff. (As if that’s somehow an odd thing).

Today I’ve read different accounts of people excusing obama’s debate loss as not wanting to appear as an ‘angry black man.’

Too much to be a coincidence IMO. Anyone else notice?
