Obama = Affirmative Action

[Australianawareness]

affirmative action is racial discrimination against white americans end of story.

[richietheripper]

were stuck on this idea that because he was successful in formal education that he is doing whats right...no hes a hypocrite...b4 he was president, he was getting campaigned by pro life organizations n the first thing he does as president is sign the FOCA bill which allows abortion...now it doesnt matter if u agree with abortion or not, he still said one thing and did another which = hypocracy hes a hypocrite...get over it

[investormark1]

Affirmative Action is Racism.

Showing favoritism to any individual simple because of race is not only incongruous, but harmful... true equality may only be achieved by merit, and intellectual capacity.

[IronythatisLife]

You echo some of the talking points in my latest video, "Barack Obama Ends Affirmative Action".

watch?v=xgzWt6p_4eQ

[revanSW89]

For all you idiots who think that Obama has gotten where he is on affirmative action, did you know when he applied to Harvard Law School he did not mention his race? How many of you can even get into Harvard? I do agree that the problem is not necessarily race but instead should focus on socio-economic factors.

[IronythatisLife]

It was to my understanding that his school records were never released. There were many people who wanted them to see whether he registered as a citizen or not. But, they were sealed from the public. Anyway, I completely agree with your last sentence, though.

[atoda1112]

the beneficiaries of race and gender conscious affirmative action programs encompass a wide range of communities. Many groups, INCLUDING WHITE WOMEN, Arab Americans, Asian Americans, Latino Americans and Native Americans heavily rely on affirmative action programs in the areas of K-12 education, college and university admissions and financial aid, employment and contracting. With the passage of Proposal 2, all these groups stand to be hurt.

[XConservative4LifeX]

Why wont Obama release his academic records. All the past presidential candidates have. He has no stellar record, but the media protrays him as the second comming. The only reason he got into those Ivey League schools was because he was black.

[ComaLies225]

apparently Michelle Obama got into Princeton by, yep you guessed it: Affirmative Action. The surprising thing is, Michelle Obama didn't have the grades to get into Princeton in the first place. I understand there's still racism in the workplace and in schools, but how reasonable is it to give someone a spot because of their ethnicity? That's not exactly fair to anyone else

[mqf0489]

What are you talking about? Michelle graduated from Whitney Young High School as salutatorian, was a member of the National Honor Society, and was treasurer for the student council. She also graduated from Princeton cum laude. All this growing up from the poorer parts of Chicago. She obviously deserved everything she has received.

[ADVERTlSEMENT]

Michelle Obama had a GPA between 2.2-3.2 in high school. Wouldn't have gone to Princeton if she was white

[mqf0489]

Like I said she graduated salutatorian of her class and graduated Princeton Cum Laude.

[mqf0489]

Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard and was president of Harvard Law Review. He also became a very effective community organizer. Work experience helps on applications as well. So he obviously did have a stellar record.

[JohnAgra]

fuck that nigger obama! the only reason hes a presidential candidate is because of AFFIRMATIVE ACTION! fuck that!

im tired of being politically correct, thats the absolute truth guys! Affirmative action helps someone who doesnt have any experience in politics to become a presidential candidate. now THAT's STUPID!

Fucking obama is making me racist!

one more thing: I HATE THE LEFT! oh man!

[alienmoonbase]

Affirmative action is racist. It is illegal in california, Proposition 209 - look it up.

So why is Obama so racist?

In Hawaii are whites eligible for affirmative action? they are minorities there.

[alienmoonbase]

Democrats destroyed american black families and now Obama will shed the light on their own failures!

Beautiful!

Blacks are more violent than whites and asians. FACT

Why? DEMOCRAT POLICIES

Dems have filled the prisons with blacks to satisfy their own solipsistic masochistic urge to feel guilt.

White guilt = black suffering

[alienmoonbase]

If Obama gets elected it will take away the crutch of millions of minorities.

It will be the best thing ever for whites in the US.

Who will blacks blame for their prison sentence?

Who will blacks blame for their high school drop out rate?

Who will blacks blame for their violence?

The crutch will be gone and black will finally have to face the music.

PLEASE vote for Obama!! I'm sick to death of black failures being blamed on me.

Blacks are failure because of what? DEMOCRATS!

[RHF1965]

Obama= Piece of shit!!!

[Donpopeel]

I don't understand how blacks can continue to allow radical white feminists(the real beneficiaries of AA) to continue to use them as scapegoats. The resentment from a lot of these females comes from sense of gender entitlement and resentment against men. Hillary really doesn't have any foreign policy experience. Please explain her foreign policy experience Taking trips overseas? Hell, if that's all it takes, I'm a foreign policy expert. 35 years of experience? What? Being Bill's wife? WTF?

[JohnR22926]

If BO is smart and wants a shot at being a truly GREAT president, he'll announce a plan to end Affirmative Action. He can pull this off by promising to redirect all the AA funds to a new program focused solely on poor people. This will work because the "poor" are still disproportionately black and will provide him "cover" with his base. If he did this, he'd draw white votes in huge numbers. He'd win in a landslide. He actually proposed this last year, but his keepers yanked his chain hard.

[lnd3005]

He won't do this.

He carries around 95% of black voters right now. Half of them might not bother showing up if he did something like that.

If he wants to be POTUS, he'll keep going at it exactly like he is.

[JohnR22926]

Ind: I agree. Unless something drastic happens Obama has it won.

IMO his proposal 18 months ago was to attract white voters who almost all (even most liberals) don't like affirmative action. Of course, 18 months ago Obama was just starting to campaign and had no idea how viable a candidate he was. Once he started winning primaries and attracting huge numbers of white voters, he realized he didn't need to offer such drastic programs as ending AA. Too bad. AA is now just a racail spoils system.

[CBERASTUS]

I'm sorry folks, but all of the negative posts have to stop! You are forgetting that Affirmative Action is the 'law of the land' now...and has been for nearly forty years. Mr. Obama is black, so therefore we should lower the bar for him. As a matter of fact, we should also give him free tuition, subsidize his family, and most importantly...GIVE HIM AN UNDESERVED JOB!!!

[Poisinn]

Thanks America, for nominating someone due to affirmative action, lets get the black guy in the office just because he's black, and we're afraid of losing the black vote / riots. No experience at all, with only a talent for making speeches, wins over someone with much more experience, a proven track record of helping the people, and the know-how of running a strong democratic government. Way to go.

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Look at their denials, the lying, and affiliations. Mr. Wright's attitude was new to Obama...he had never heard this from his "pastor" of 20 years. Yes they are racist and YES Obama, Michelle and the liberal media "Hope" America is this stupid.

[INeedMyHealthCare]

Mr Wright is building his multi million dollar mansion in a white neighborhood and will be golfing with rich white people? They ones he calms are the problem. His congregation is a bunch of suckers.

[DNAguy]

He never said white people were the problem.. He stated that he had a problem with the American Government. I ordered the DVD and listened to the WHOLE SERMON.. Not 20 second sound bites..

[crunk4christ2006]

If he had the experience, people would still have a problem with Obama.

[tamifun2007]

i agree

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Mr Wright is building his multi million dollar mansion in a white neighborhood and will be golfing with rich white people? They ones he calms are the problem. His congregation is a bunch of suckers.

[PenguinSteeler]

Isn't President Bush considered EXPERIENCED and President John F. Kennedy was considered INEXPERIENCED and YOUNG. Clinton=Bush. Obama=Kennedy. Do the math.

[sawsaw16]

well ya but who would u rather have another bush or another kennedy???

[PenguinSteeler]

I positively would enjoy another Kennedy.

[Splitter]

You want another inexperienced indecisive amateur who sits on dealing with foreign threats until they escalate? Because you know that's what the Cuban Missle Crisis was, and you know Kennedy got very very lucky, right?

Also, equating Clinton to Bush is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. There are hundreds of congressmen that are "experienced" as well. Are you saying that because she's been in politics longer than Obama, she's another Bush? If that's your only argument, you're full of shit.

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Obama again shows that his inexperience only creates disdain. He is a divider, he has his own side and his actions, associations and statements clearly demonstrate this fact!

[jackinla8]

This whole Obama "Hope+Change" Campaign

is an affront to America's intelligence.

It's EMPTY and ABSURD!!!

[sherwoode7]

I think affirmative action is a bad thing and should end now

[aclusux]

Hillary is the better of these two choices. first and foremost experience, good international network, light years ahead of B. Hussein Obama.

[bbrain14]

Yes, but who wants the same politics?

[RichardMNixon]

Good job posting Obama's middle name, xenophobic hate-mongering is always a good strategy.

[plzIneedhelp]

are you trying to say Affirmative action is a good thing ?

[sherwoode7]

It's time for affirmative action to end.Blacks have had enough hand-outs.They have been indulged like children and act accordingly.GROW UP BLACKS AND STOP WHINING

[doubleknuckled]

Barack told pretty much the same thing to small-town residents in Pennsylvania who blame people who look different from them for all their problems, and was crucified for it.

[alphaerik]

sherwoode7, I couldn't have said it better myself. I give you 1000 thumbs up!

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Obama has passed only 2 bills. One was to name a Library.

[djoy4ly]

Thank you for posting this video. Convinced more than ever to vote for hope, against fear, and for the next President of the United States, Barack Obama! Yes. We. Can. May you be blessed with the light of truth. Reject the fear, embrace the hope of good!

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Let's not forget limited congressional experience, zero military experience, radical religious affiliations and drug and alcohol abuse. All those pesky qualities you see in President George W Bush along with a successful business history and the same grades as John Kerry.

Obama is an empty suit and has passed only 2 bills. One was to name a Library.

[djskeme]

HAHA. Those talking points are played out. And anyone that truly knows anything about his stance on issues are past this. You are obviously white proclaiming Affirmative Action which is hilarious. AA doesn't even exist! Ask any minority!

Did all the caucasians in Iowa care about Affirmative Action?

Get the F* outta here!!

[magatte]

Obama is a US Senator, graduated magna cum laude in INternational Relations from Columbia, is a member of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and chair of the Subcommittee on European Affairs.

He has pushed and succesfully passed major legislation to secure loose WMD and prevent terrorists from accessing them (the Obama-Lugar Nuclear Proliferation Act).

Bill Clinton was someone with NO foreign policy experience.

[doubleknuckled]

Successfull business history? He ran his business into the ground and had his daddy bail him out. Are you seriously claiming Bush is more intelligent or better qualified to lead America than Barack Obama? I can name several US presidents as ignorant as(or even more ignorant and inexperienced than) George Bush, and noone complained. What's the real problem with Obama(hence constantly calling him Hussien?) Maybe one of the many NeoNazis on here would be brave enough to give an honest answer.

[epo8213]

OnceYouGoBarack you will say anything because you are a republican who wants to keep on to your power. Has the country been better since the Republicans has the presidency and the majority of Congress? I think pretty much everybody would agree with me in saying no. Its funny to me that most Republicans always vote against their interest just because they are scared of change.

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Arguing over the internet is like running a race in the Special Olympics.  Even if you win, you are still a retard.

[djskeme]

SO SHUDUP ALREADY!! And go get your meds.

[santacharlie]

I am just being objective.

The rule of the game initially accepted or the determinant is the pledged delegates earned in the primary elections

Supers allocation are directly proportional to the ones earned in the primary elections.

Otherwise what is the purpose of the primary elections if the winning is not based on it.

Open elections is what true democracy begins with.

[santacharlie]

The total remaining pledged delegates including FL & MI are 565+313=878.

Obama may lead in few & Mrs. Clinton in few.

Mrs. Clinton must get at least a lead of 19.4 percent out of the 878 pledged delegates on average, if FL & MI are also included.

It is not probable based on the past primaries & the polls.

It may produce a slight lead in the reaming contests for either of them, with or without FL & MI, but it is not likely to produce 19.4 percent lead for Mrs. Clinton or Obama.

[aclusux]

Obama is an empty suit, a supporter of racism, and lies about his association with Bill Ayers. If he is willing to lie now, just imagine what he will do in office?

[Bigone5555J]

YEH-A NEW PATH-RIGHT DOWN THE TOILET!

[OnceYouGoBarack]

Affirmative Action means that qualifications do not matter.

[santacharlie]

He did not make up stories or commercials to falsely claim himself to be a foreign policy & defense hero.

I think he has proved to be more genuine & honest..

He has more patience & wisdom..

He also seems to be very realistic, fair & farsighted.

He is dynamic & has a better judgment..

His tax returns are in public..

Because, he stopped taking big chunks of..from the lobbyist, he will be able to bring the changes.

[santacharlie]

I think we have already had so many chances to witness Obama handling situations very well.

He plans things much better.. He will not be careless.

He is focused on the ball.

He is a team player & will be a trustworthy leader.

He did not mislead or lied as we saw during the primaries, who lied & who mislead to get votes.

He handled the campaign so well.

He handled attacks very well..

He does not lose temper

[rainsan]

What the hell is up with the propaganda title?

[santacharlie]

How will she be able to fill such a big gap (171/565=30.22 percent) with 565 earned delegates left in 10?

Based on the track record of both in the previous primaries & the polls, it seems like, she is wasting resources, time & hurting the party.

I think Obama, in the best interest of all, would have dropped out by now, had he be in her current position.

[santacharlie]

1,414 Pledged Obama per CNN:

1,243 Pledged for Hillary per CNN:

Obama has a lead of 171 in pledged delegates through the primary election process

From her speech in Indiana, it is obvious, Hillary is counting on Obama to drop out despite his 171 lead & the lead in popular vote.

Does someone have any idea why is she being so unfair, not accepting the reality of the primary election results?

[jakesunrider01]

She will sue the DNC to give her the votes from Mi and Fl which total more than 300. She is and has been the front-runner. Obama has up to now cheated her and the people. According to Obama, some votes count and some don't. This is the greatest political theft in the history of politics. I thought Clinton would do most anything to win but Obama has fooled everyone. He won't get the Mi and Fl votes in November. Hillary could beat him as an independant where all votes count. Obama bad!!!!

[jastheswift2]

he will be a fresh air from the 9/11 era created by bush and his cohorts: 9/11 is a lie and hoax, the war in iraq is a lie-who knows what are we fighting there for? we need a change...

[happyjesucr]

By your logic Pat Buchanan would be a breath of fresh air because his paleo-con view of non-interventionism would be a direct 180 from Bush. You have to look at the candidate, and though Obama has not been caught yet being foolish enough to lend credence to Wright's speech, there is a lot of obvious hypocrisy in his condemnation of subtle white racism such as Imus and Ferraro and then the rationalization of Wright's lies and accusations. You think too highly of middle America's avg IQ level.

[merhasdabest]

his character or hers? you know the truth, talk to yourself.

[baronmorris]

Go, Bob Casey!

Go, Barack Obama!
