First of all, you sound pretty uuneducated calling us niggers. Second of all, If you look back in historty, you will see that it is the white man's fault that BLACK PEOPLE have the status that they do today. Barack Obama is amazing and you are ignorant. Try googling 'regimento, and you will see what I mean.

You conservative idiots need to stop thinking about yourselves as if you're better than anyone else in this world. I think it's sad that people like you could be so ignorant. If you haven't lived it don't judge people who have. How could you think you know all about something you've never experienced before? You people amaze me.

@funnyhaha07 This speech was given in the spring of 2008 or around that time during the democratic primary run. The financial meltdown didn't happen until the fall so at this point health care would have been the number one topic not the economy. Psh...it's funny how people forget history, even when it was only three years ago.

@bootylicification That's human psychology and if you actually research that subject you would find that he hit the nail on the head. People have been doing that same thing for all of humanity, and what he said wasn't radical until someone else said it was.

4 /4

From Obama’s speech in San Francisco:

"You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them," he said.

"And it's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,"

3 /4

From Obama’s Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the {Muslims} should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.' page 261.

2 /4

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: ; 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father:

I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Dubois and Mandela.'

1 /4 Obama’s Anti-American sentiment.

.

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating> myself to whites.'

.

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mothers race.'

.

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'
