Accused America of being racist? America was never racist? If you know the history let me refresh it for once again. Once upon a time whites and black could sit or use thesame bathroom. No, he is not accusing ameria of racism, he is addressing the damage that racism has cost our society as it stand right now.

Obama's speech was to draw attention away from the Wright controversy. It was a wag the dog speech. Obama isn't a spokesmen for race relations because he considered a black supremisist to be his mentor for 20 years even after knowing what he thought. He threw his own grandmother under the bus just to support a racist like Wright by saying he was like family. He then accused America of being racist and having racial divides. The divides only exist because politicians like Obama exploit them.
