“Don’t you just love that blacks actually believe this fake understands what they go through? He has and still lives a privileged life. I guess I don’t understand the stupidity of the collective black mind set.”

I was willing to give blacks a pass on Obama’s first election. After all, it was a historic occasion for blacks and the country at large, hence the large number of whites that voted for him as well. But, the second election, should have been, “fool me once shame on you - fool me twice shame on me”. But, didn’t happen. Now, the big question is; will history repeat itself and we will have to suffer through the “first woman president” - you know who. I shudder to think what this country will be like after two terms of Obama and possibly two terms of “The Beast”........

“I don’t see how a person not-of-color could possibly do the job that he’s doing.”

These folks are utterly racist and self-serving. Completely uninterested in the law.

Like you, I give it a pass on his 1st election, with all the "hope & change" bulls##t. However, I'll go to my grave believing the second election was stolen through massive fraud, esp in battleground areas.

> Whites are AFRAID!! WHo wants a bunch of blacks screaming on your front lawn???

Probably because they don’t think other white people will come to their aid if they tell the blacks to get off their lawn. Maybe its time to create an association for the protection of conservatives from violent and destructive behavior of liberals that includes members of every race. If an uprising occurs members of the local chapter are dispatched to do what the police will not do.

“This is a myopic assessment. If race does trump all, how do you explain all the capable, charismatic black conservatives getting the cold shoulder from the black voters?”....

There’s always that “fringe element”. Indeed there are a lot of really good black people, the unfortunate part is they are the out numbered by the “takers”.

Black “culture”, whether found in a mud hut in Haiti or the Black Caucus in DC is, in essence, tribalism attempting to function in a white world.

Nationalism has triumphed over tribalism because it is a more advanced stage of human societal evolution. This difference is very useful to those willing to understand and apply it.

White voters can analyze an official in terms of performance. Blacks, being tribal, analyze in the earlier context of tribe. In the case of Obama, blacks see his blackness first. That they so do is proof that they are essentially tribal, not national in their perspective.

America, prior to the introduction of collectivism under Wilson?Roosevelt, was a nation of disparate peoples who insisted on seeing themselves as one people. Americans once made America their “tribe” and with that perspective of being one people became the most successful nation in history.

After the societal cancer known as collectivism was allowed into America, the descent down the path of societal evolution began. Under Obama, the path has steeped.

The Zimmerman show trial to appease the black tribalism demands is symptomatic of the return of America to the “GibsMeDat” mentality of tribalism.

Two examples may be instructive. American Blacks blindly support anything placing them in a superior position so long as they did not have to work for and pay for that position. Obama, and the Democrats prove this point.

Latinos, particularly those from Mexiico and Central America, agitate/’organize’/support “La Raze” (The Race) a political faction which seeks special, unearned benefits for their tribe.

As the world learned in Africa, tribalism can’t be allowed in a world of nation states, and that is why Africa once was vastly improved under the nation state. South Africa, and the starving remnant of what was once Rhodesia, are instructive examples of what black tribalism can do to a more advanced society if allowed dominance.

Detroit, and to a somewhat lesser extent Atlanta, Baltimore, Birmingham, DC, sections of Los Angeles, and Nagan’s “Chocolate City” New Orleans, ad nauseam - all are disintegrating under tribalism. The difference between Detroit and the others is only time. Given time, and allowed to remain tribal, what has happened to Detroit will be repeated in these cities as well.

Tomorrow does not look good.

... the fact that, for the first time, the person in the Oval Office has lived an African-American experience.

Private schools k to 12, Columbia then Harvard Law. Your typical African-American experience for sure.

The simple reality, the simple truth that most dare not speak, is that, whatever may have been the case in the past (and I mean 40+ years DISTANT past), far more blacks are racist than whites, and they are far more virulent and unapologetic about it than whites have been for quite some time.

Obama and Holder have succeeded in creating greater racial animosity than has existed in this country since Reconstruction. Obama is the Great Divider... or maybe more accurately, the Great Racist.

“...has lived an african-American experience.” Yes...he has looted money from taxpayers, excessively spends taxpayer money on personal life, doesn’t like to work, has a history of drug use, has never held a “real” job, essentially is on the government dole, is often dishonest, is a racist who hates caucasians, agitates rather than leads and creates, apparently is very angry at America...yea...nobama continues to lived an african-American experience. I just wish he were in prison for the rest of his sub-worthless existence for what he and his commie minions are doing to Free America.

No not all blacks feel race trumps all but IMO most do and yes there are the Ben Carsons of the world but they are few and far between in my opinion (I wish there were more). With all due respect if you worked around the blacks I do you might change you view a little. I live around 1.5 hrs from Sanford FL. there seems to be a different vibe since the not guilty verdict.

Not with me! This country is going to hell and I'm tired of the race baiters and hucksters trying to tear this country apart. There are so many bigger issues to focus on than a punk wanna be thug that ambushed GZ and paid the ultimate price for thugery (trying to be hard).

Now they (race baiters) say that we are back to the 50's and 60's in this country. Trying to equate TM with Emmitt Till and Medgar Evers?! Really?

Back in 2008, I said that if Obama gets elected that he would set race relations back 50 years! I'm no prophet but I saw the writing on the wall. (MENE, MENE, TEQEL, and PHARSIN). Dan. 5:25-27

black Americans have tended to find proportionately more employment in the public sector than the private sector, in part because of discrimination from private employers.

Private sector employers have higher standards and make more demands than public sector. If you get in a public sector job, you can sit back, top out at 300lbs, develop a bad back, and do very little work. That won't fly in the privately-owned workplace.

The disappointment is perhaps strongest on the economy, since black people are worse off now than they were when Obama first took office, according to virtually every major indicator.

For a large section of the voting public, in other words, reality is totally irrelevant. The country is doomed.

Seeing the way the media twisted this, I have begun to wonder if we ever got the real story on Emmett Till.

Of course race trumps all. You only need to look as far as Detroit to know that is true.

These are mostly people who can not progress beyond tribal societies.
