So, if President Barack Obama isn’t reelected, will the reputation of entire black race suffer from his electoral defeat?
On Friday’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” on HBO, Maher said a Romney win in November would reflect poorly on “black America” and help conservatives undermine America’s faith in black politicians.
“I think the second term for Obama is more important even than the first,” Maher said. “Obviously, it was important to get the first black president elected. But if the first black president only has one term, America reads that as a failure.

Given that he is doing worse raising money than George Bush did 8 years ago, it appears to me that the people with money don’t want him to be reelected. SOME of them are the owers that be (some are just average Joes who happen to be rich).
The DOW isn’t disconnected from economics, it just appears that way. It supposedly is inversely related to the dollar, so when the dollar goes down, the DOW goes up.
Well they are surely Doomed then,Have you seen what Obamas programs have done to The Black Community,Putz Head Maher?
Top down, bottom up inside out. Kaos will rule the day in the next four years exactly as they planned to the point where they think the sane hard working people will rise up and say please dear leader stop the violence and the dear leader will cast upon the nation a new and FAIR system where the uneducated and the lazy will be happy and the hard working law abiding citizen will be a slave to the teet suckers and thier leader. We have reason to be angry at the GOP but we have more reason to cock block the dearleader and his plan for us
“black” America’s last hope is to join the meritocracy and forget this skin color focus. Stop being a reactionary. Stop this idea that normal names are “slave” names and quit naming children “Placenta” and “Dewayne” and other nonsense names. Try to find a way to contribute to the overall good and get control of sex outside of marriage. Oh, marriage is a good idea too.
America reads that as Obama is a failure
Is the only hope for Blacks more social programs so they can get a government check rather than be encouraged to become self-sufficient and successful? Democrats gave Blacks 40 years of miserable go-nowhere welfare. How compassionate is that?
Sure does look disconnected when Uncle Sugar prints out more money, or lowers interest rates.
You can tell Maher writes his own material. His writing process starts with a bowel movement and whatever sticks to the paper makes it to production.
Yeah, because the last 3 1/2yrs have been soooo wonderful for the black community. Remember, YOU’RE victims.
I am truly sorry that the first black president is Obama. It is a shame for black Americans to have such a poor representation for them.
Imagine giving someone a million dollar for their re-election and they are rejected by the general population....I'm sure he will see it as a rejection of his values as well...he will never admit that...
Bill better stock pile some prozac...and cocaine
You mean Clooney’s 4,000 dollar a plate fundraiser? I have read several articles about different fundraisers that indicate Obama has several wealthy donors. Remember the Limos at his imacculation? Warren Buffet, who owns the RR that will transport oil instead of the pipeline?
Hey everybody...if you haven’t cancelled HBO yet...do yourself a favor and do so today. It only takes one phone call and just a few minutes.
These people hate us...and we should not be supporting their hate.
I have a lot of faith in Allen West and he is really black. Screw you, Maher.
Guess he has not heard of ‘Black on Black’ crime. Or, perhaps he could name one Black Leader of a Black nation or ‘otherwise’; that has ‘taken care’; inspired; moved to economic freedom; the citizens of that nation/country. . .city. ..town?
Don't know who came up with it though.
Perhaps someone could ask Bill; why, it is OK for Jesse Jackson to feel fear at night; if a Black man is behind him, on a D.C. street and not a 'White man'. Why is it racist if a White man, feels the same fear, as well.
What hogwash!
Those of us in the “real” world have become more colorblind than ever. During a stint in the military, I learned that the color of a guy’s skin isn’t nearly as important as his ability to do the job well. And I think the rest of America feels pretty much the same way. King was right about the “content of his character.”
Racial problems were fading away, IMHO, and good riddance. After all, the “N-word” is now unspeakable, a lady of color (Beyoncé) was named the most gorgeous woman on the planet and skin color doesn’t even occur to us when we’re cheering for our favorite athletes. Then Obummer came along and stoked all the fires again.
The people of my acquaintance understand that only too well. Idiots like Samuel L. Jackson might be voting for Obummer purely because he’s black, but most intelligent people know a loser when they see one.
My position at that time was Obama stood a high probability to be a massive failure. This was based on two counts - first is total lack of political background; the second count was the improbability of Obama selecting strong people to counter his weaknesses.
Needless to say this brought howls from my son until I compared Obama to a professional chief, something he had experiences with.
I told him that the worse thing about Obama’s presidency was the impact it would have on future minorities running for the Presidency; no matter how good or bad they would be declared “Obama-lite” by members of the opposing party.
IMHO, this is the line that is being taken by the LMSM to preserve their creation - president Obama. Unfortunately it reflects the liberal mind set - you can never ever do enough to atone for (fill in the blank with the conservative “sin” of their choice). Three hundred years from now with a continuous string of black presidents our great-great-great-grandchildren would still be hearing how they must vote for another black president or it will undo all the the “advances” made since Obama I’s rule.
