This was a great speech. The president was the first public figure to tackle such a tough subject. He is to be commended for that! Obama 2012!

@imgottie i think the dynamic in africa is a little different than here...

....So the reason Obama was telling us to vote for him was that an old black man came to a roundtable discussion to support a 23 year old woman named Ashley who told her mother she liked mustard sandwiches when she was a little girl so that her mother could save money until she recuperated thank God from cancer? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not an Obama fan but I'm doing a Masters in Political Communication and it seems that Obama thinks the American people are really really dumb .

From Obama’s speech in San Fransico:
"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,"

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.'

wow, i guess illuminati's plan works, people are dumb as shit. Conservative means sparingly. Its very hard for a person to fall into 1 political group....thought some how they do it...bassed on the majority of there ideas and what cat it falls in. Conservative..old, ignorant, close minded?? listen to this funny twist, conservative = save money you have for rainy day, democrate = spend money you don't have, don't worry about it...run us in the ground. Truly it dosen't matter though, wit inflation

you know....the same could be said for hitler, don't be foolish and listen to words, words don't do shit, actions is where its all at. And obama sucks just as much as the many before him. Look up reasons for why chapelle refused a 50 million $ contract to continue his show, try to find the connection most successful musicians, actors and politicians have. Listen to many examples of satanic lyrics reversed in songs. start with "2-pac killuminati". JZ's song has "666 kill jesus" reversed in song.

I totally agree, we should ban together and give him the same support as when we banned together and supported Bush... it's funny how people only want everyone to work together and support the President when it is there presidential choice that got elected.... you only have the right tell people to ban together and support your Presidential choice if you did the same when Bush was in office.
Have all you people who are shamelessly slandering Barack Obama ever actually been to one of his speeches? Have you watched anything or listened to anything about him except what you see on Fox News? Obama's speeches are specific, inspiring and intelligent. He gets down to earth on the issues while stirring up the crowd with calls for change, because unlike most candidates he truly believes in change. He has high hopes for this country. How rare it is to see such a special, hopeful candidate.

What about back on black oppression? An estimated 250,000 African Somali people live in camp of huts along roads outside Mogadishu; they have abandoned their life's in the capital because of violence, destruction, bombed out homes and slaughter from local rebels. At camp, makeshift huts stretch for miles; food aid is scarce. The UN says the camp is biggest gathering of displaced people in the world. The black wealthy obviously suppressing, robbing, enslaving, raping and killing the Black poor.
