Is Racial Allegiance Keeping Obama's Approval Rating High Among Black People?
Black Christian News ^ | 8/11/10 | Cord Jefferson

Beginning last week, President Obama's approval rating is now the lowest it's ever been, with just 45 percent of Americans saying they're satisfied with the job he's doing, according to Gallup...Yet as supporters peel away by the day, one group has yet to significantly give up on the president: African Americans. Though Obama no longer enjoys the 96 percent black approval of months past, he's still never known what it's like to not have the support of at least 80 percent of African American voters. Currently, more than nine out of 10 blacks polled approve of Barack Obama's job performance, a bounce back from a year low of 85 percent following the Sherrod dustup.

The biggest open secret in American society today is black racism against white people

Even worse are race relations between blacks and latinos.

DUH. No, its magic pixie dust generated by industrial pollution & transmogrified by the Aliens in the Mother ship that Kucinich was on that bends them all to this Allegiance.

Now, here is a question one never hears posed: If JC Watts was the president, would liberals and blacks who disagreed with his policies be called “racists”?

Mostly, the cause is ignorance. They know not what is happening, much less what they did.

That is taking the group as a whole and omitting the enlightened and the radicals

There is a problem here and we all know it. We do need to keep in perspective the fact that only 1 in 10 citizens are Black, and that this isn’t going to blow polls out by that much. Of course that’s as long as the polls don’t over sample in heavily Black areas.

It's not just because he's black, it's also because he's a big supporter of handouts to blacks.

If he were conservative, many would denigrate him as an Uncle Tom.

Obama supporters want stuff!

Their favorite political chant is "GIMME!"

The answer is a resounding “Yes” but consider this as food for thought.

While Zero’s lost weekend playing pickup basketball got all sorts of attention, much of it not good, how do you think it played with his base? So is he politically tone deaf, or crazy like a fox?

I’ve concluded that he’s concluded that as long as his peeps are down with him, he’s politically untouchable. So never mind what us crackers think, it’s all about keeping it real with the homies. Could probably say the same thing about Mooch-elle’s wonderful Spanish adventure.

Yep. Sadly, for far too many blacks, it wouldn't matter what Obama did. He's skin is dark, so they'll keep supporting him.

Sadly, Martin Luther King's dream is farther from becoming a reality than it ever was.

If asked by a pollster they answer positively, but do they have enough enthusiasm to get up and go to the polls? I doubt it.

Unless, of course, there is a rumor of free government money being handed out at the polls

Yup. This is racism at its peak.

So, we have to ask... who is guilty in keeping it alive?

Its too bad they couldnt vote for the man and his policies, but then again the rest of America was duped too.
