For you idiots talking about Blacks and the poor need to help themselves, what the hell are you saying? Most of you making these silly statements are not self-employed--you all work for someone or some company. If you were fired today, you will not be hired right away. You may not get a job for the next 2 years. Unemployed Blacks, Whites, Latinos, etc... are not unemployed because they chose to be in the situation. How are they going to help themselves when they don't have money?

Those are the wisest men on the airwaves

Obama is the president of the united states he's not the president of the black community.

Black people better appreciate seeing a black man as president of the united states & cherish these moments because, we will NEVER see this again.

ron paul is the answer to barack obama

[RAWDEAL70]

I would never speak out against another brother but I would speak to him personally or I wouldnt say nothing at all. I would respectfully ask if not Barack then who? Is he not a better choice than what exists now?

[MonsieurMercredi]

@Roxane1227, it's good to see that someone on this thread has some sense.

[MonsieurMercredi]

@Drkprence, you stupid BITCH! Tell that to the Blacks that lost their jobs, and they're now living in their cars! Tell that to people that have no support, but have degrees, and they can't get jobs! You STUPID STUPID BITCH!!!!

I hated to have to go there, but your ridiculous comment warranted it. OBAMA hasn't done one damn thing for Blacks, so why would anyone with common sense support him?

I support your desire to vote for him, but do NOT call yourself thinking for the rest of us.

...of charge cleaned his yard, totally fixed his house back up. Now everyone involved prob felt great about it & it was the kind of deed that encourages more good deeds. Very positive & likely worth more than the entire poverty tour that spreads only negativism.

"The smallest good deed is worth more than the grandest intention"

[mikedd56]

...at his silly poverty tour, purpose is to 'highlight' poverty. Yea I'm sure everyone will be real surprised that poverty exists. He could go around doing small deeds for poor people making a real difference instead of his abstract goal to end poverty. Like thats possible.

I saw on the news this thing they do for MLK b-day. Each year they attract volunteers & do a good deed. This year an old blind man who wasnt able to keep up with his yard, his house was a mess, etc. Well they went in free...

[mikedd56]

...thing you did, your poor b/c your a victim of rich people's agenda. So focus on that, get angry on that dont worry about a new job.

Its like if your kid wasnt doing so well in college & you knew he was prob. just slacking off, too much partying. Are you gunna say its not ur fault, ur more or less a victim here. Its ur damn professors they are to blame. No, you'd say drop the booze & hit the books. Its not a vacation, you can do this.

I dont see Cornell preaching encouragement. I mean look...

[mikedd56]

OK seriously can anyone see a scenario in which Cornell isnt whining about poor people. And honestly for all his bitching just what is he doing to help. Think about it all he ever does is focus on the negative, do you ever hear him talking about getting out of poverty. No, he just compounds the problem. What I mean is instead of encouraging people to stay positive, stay tough, work hard, perhaps help people get jobs he compounds the problem by saying oh your not just poor by bad luck or some...
