Obama: Some People Dislike Me Because They Don't Like That I'm Black
breitbart ^ | 1/19/14

Posted on 01/20/2014 5:12:57 AM PST by bestintxas

On Sunday, The New Yorker released an interview with President Barack Obama in which the president stated that his approval ratings had been suppressed due to racism. “There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president,” Obama stated. “Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I’m a black president.”

Obama’s current approval rating is down to 39 percent according to Gallup; his approval rating in the black community remains extraordinarily high, although it is significantly lower now than it was when he was re-elected.

Obama’s overall approval ratings have tumbled coincident with the failed rollout of Obamacare, as well as his mishandling of the Syria and Iran crises. Obama’s supporters have often suggested that political difficulties he experiences are attributable to generalized racial anxiety.

BO is, at best, 3/8th black and it could be as little as 1/8th. The remainder is Arab. His Kenyan tribe considered themselves a higher class of blacks because they originated on the coast and became wealthy trading slaves through Zanzibar. The elite of the tribe was always Muslim and often Arab.

The Arab traders-- and their black trading partners-- had a perk of adding the most desirable females, usually lighter skinned, of a newly acquired group of slaves to their harem. This is the reason that professional genealogists find good documentation of the men in patriarchal lineage of BO, but very spotty and often missing (except for a name) documentation of the women in patriarchal lineage.

The British colonization of Kenya severely restricted the slave trade and drove many of Obama's tribe inland where they had to eek out a living herding livestock. The German defeat in World War I and loss of neighboring German East Africa eliminated their final source of slaves. Thus, their hatred of all things British.

Here is a great direct message on Twitter for Obama: Dr. Ben Carson ✔ @RealBenCarson As we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. let us pay more attention to the content of one's character than the color of one's skin.

Interesting that in a interview on MLK’s birthday BHO would whine that he is being judged on the “color of his skin” instead of the “content of his character”, when, in fact the opposite is finally occurring and the public is seeing him for what he truly is... a phony, narcissistic blow-hard.

It has nothing to do with color. It is your socialist, american hating, over-spending, narcissistic side that I can’t stand.

In other words "Let's keep talking about racism in this country". The libs need it to survive." A complete shallow loser in any book.

The liberals are always saying the Tea Party and Republican Party are Racist. If that is true, why does the Tea Party support people like Alan West, Herman Cain, Senator Tim Scott, Mia Love of Utah, Dr. Benjamin Carson, etc.? The are all black!

All of the above are true conservatives and beloved in Tea Party circles. It must also be noted that Senator Tim Scott is from the Deep South. He is a Senator from South Carolina.

Racism does run deep but that racism and victim hood runs deep in the Democrat Party not the conservatives in the Tea Party and Republican Party.

because I’m a black president

That Colour thing really bites in to his psyche.
The fact that he keep on bringing the non-subject up
sounds like a deep seated mental defect to me.

He’s got it all wrong. He’s president cuz he’s black. If he had been a white candidate, he would have been laughed off the national stage before the first debate, for lack of experience.

I hate him for all of the reasons above stated. But also because he is a big spender...of our money. I have a sister in law like that, whom I love dearly, but she is the kind that just recently within the past year got a medical suit settlement for over $200K and already is down to $20K, but has had a really great time spending it, but on her OWN money...some people need somebody to manage their money... the Obamas need someone to manage OUR money!

To add my two cents to what has already been said, I believe that his comment blaming his low approval on his race is indicative and consistent with his past comments. He is trying to make this out to be “WHO he is” and deflect that the low rating is really about “WHAT he is doing”. It is natural, as the narcissistic individual he is, that he would try to steer this into “all about ME”, the individual. That is not it. The low approval rating is the result of what you have done, not who you are. I could care less “Who he is”, I grade on “What he is doing”. Frankly, I think 39% approval is way too high for what he and his staff have done to this country.

What's with the Child-Kings always referring to us as "folks"?

Never thought of Obama as a black guy.

I've always thought of him as a white liberal woman.

So.... his polls are going down because he’s getting blacker?

He shouldn't have taken that trip to Hawaii.

Tans are bad for the polls.

50% cracker, 50% mud. And I don’t care if he’s rainbow colored, the end of racism in America was 2008.
