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.

I don't agree with everything in this article, but it is an interesting read, particulary since it is posted on an obstensibly Christian site.

Unreal.

Imagine if a crackah president always had 90% approval ratings because he was white.

What a sick, perverse, delusional, and STUPID world.

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.

I have never had a second thought that this was not the case.Americans are stupid when it comes to race issues. Blacks have been programmed to think this way and there is not changing those especially the lesser educated ones. They are always critical of any black that sees or thinks differently and the term racist is a term that is used to have their way and the Democrat Party plays it like a drum.

The biggest open secret in American society today is black racism against white people. Two days ago, I spoke with one of our town’s park employees. He had been called out to repair the splash pad at one of our parks. There was a black family there waiting to use the pad, along with about 50 white people. He was called, to his face, a racist, with the claim that the splash pad had been turned off deliberately because there were black people there. The worker’s claim that this was plumbing issue, not a race issue, were met with strong denials.

We are not a United States until this crap stops.

racial allegience? How about calling it what it really is: RACISM...

If a white person voted for another white person because they were white they would be called racists...

The truth is...racism is strong with his followers...
