...Obama spoke passionately about the importance of education to the African-American community in a commencement address Friday...
Back [when the school was founded], people were hungry to learn."
But Obama said too much of the black community has lost that desire.

They need to wake up before they can learn.
Shanniqua can cook dinner for her 8 children for $22.50 per night. She gets $2,431 a month welfare and will receive and additional $248 a month per child if she has even more children. If her Section 8 Housing check goes up 15% next year, but her landlord wants to raise the rent by 25%, how many children should she have to keep up with expenses?
I read an article once that even her high paying Affirmative Action job was a "burden" to her. She was so lazy herself that the other Affirmative Action employees complained.
That would really take a lot of not doing to accomplish that.
They got their Obama-Foams, EBT, free prescription drugs.
Life is good and studying is acting white.
I hate articles like this. How hard would it be for the fine upstanding journalists of the Associated Press to actually put the freaking quote in the article instead of expecting us to believe their paraphrase?
Hell, why learn? It’s easier, more profitable and popular to be a drug dealer, Hollywood prostitute, MSM news reader and/or pimp/prostitute, President, clown or Vice President, or Chicago Mayor.
When I was younger, we used to play a board game “Risk”.
When you got a certain big windfall of armies, you would make the big move and try to “run the table”. Sometimes it worked.
The socialists are trying to do that right now.
I am dedicated to the concept that this attempt, at least, is premature in the USA and will not succeed.
I have read the Book, and know these days are numbered, but do not intend to curl up in a ball awaiting the end of this age.
Thanks for all your work!
What I wrote was not my opinion but a direct quote from black youths in my BIL’s neighborhood.
Well D'uh!
Most of us had that figured out all by ourselves.
Since the mid sixties, our society has been forced, by a few well meaning ignoramuses to support an enormous army of indolent CINOs (Citizens In Name Only.)
What do you call mammals which have no conscious purpose?
Which cannot feed itself?
Which is virtually a slave to a lifelong parasitic existence?
Usually they are most commonly called pets.
When human, they are called welfare recipients, aka the 51%.
And yes, they are immune to the drive, or even the need do ever learn anything of positive use to the larger society. Why expend the energy if it can be obtained with no effort?
This unique group has been growing exponentially for the last 50 years.
And being white means, absolutely, bearing the total burden of supporting non-whites. Fools, they are not.
you hit the nail on the head.
There are a lot of people who love to sing who have no talent for it at all. See, just one small example buries your thesis.
I have noticed a difference between males and females, though. At work I encounter a significant percentage of black women who have gotten an education, worked hard, and made something of themselves. Sadly, their culture does nothing to encourage its young men to be responsible. Many of these accomplished women are never-married mothers - but not welfare-dependents. The number of educated professional black men has dwindled almost to invisibility.

Yeah, that's crap. There have been brilliant blacks throughout history. "African-Americans" have a different story.
During the cold war, the Soviets waged a propaganda war on inner city blacks transforming their cultural attitude to what we see today...ie If you are black, you must be a socialist. The NAACP and other race baiters have done a bang-up job keeping it that way.
The main difference between black people and white people is...their skin color...which is trivial.
Yet every IQ test and standardized test ever given shows my statement to be correct that black people, on average, have the lowest IQs, score the lowest on tests, and perform the worst academically. Nobody disputes this truth, but instead people posit different theories as to why the intellectual gap exists.
The fact that you cite “brilliant blacks throughout history” evidences that you don’t understand the concept of an average. I did not suggest that there hasn’t been brilliant blacks throughout history. Obviously there has been and always will be. That, however, does not refute the truth about the IQ difference which remains constant at one standard deviation.
Try actually studying the topic before summarily dismissing it based on your PC feelings.
Educated blacks are the democrats worst nightmare.
