Let's look at this simply, for one, since race was not mentioned in the OP, yet he asked if it would be racist, then he obviously is looking at a specific race being the poor. Also his history of posts about black people makes it easy to deduce he is meaning black people.
I simply repeated what Barack has said and suggested. I just thought id see the type of responses I got before I showed who actually said it. Now that you know it is Obama and how he feels about our society, i am sure you will suddenly see it differently.

OBAMA DECLARES HOW POOR PEOPLE: 'Need help with basic skills, how to shop, how to show up for work on time, how to wear the right clothes, how to act appropriately in an office'.
So? This is true. There are charities that teach people these specific skills. There are places you can donate business attire for poor people. There are organizations that teach basic money management.

Many of the poor are poor partially because no one ever taught them basic skills. White or black, this is true. If you come from a ghetto or trailer park background, often you just don't know how to present yourself.

For the record, I think many blacks are obnoxious and get away with behavior not appropriate in an office setting.

why would I see it differently? I said that type of thinking was ignorant, how would who said it make any difference? you may not want to admit it, but you are sure sounding just like a democrat. you want to make things about race and racism. remember Obama is just as much your race as he is mine, and he was raised predominantly more by yours.

nobody cares what obama said 20 years ago. you have his whole presidency to judge him on and the right thinks a video is going to ruin him? this isnt romneys 47 percent which happened a couple months ago.

the right is desperate.

It's racist because there isn't even a word for non- racists.

Everyone whether or not they will admit it is a racist. I didn't think I was until i came to Cd. But here I learned everyone is a racist. No one can prove different either!

I have 3 or 4 races with in my family unit and they are all racists too!

Just a question
Clearly, you've never dealt with middle-class-and-up office workers, as they showcase many of those same problems.

I am sure you probably do think that way, and good for you, it is that Democrat belief system that I have fought against most of my life. But thank you for that, it is because of that, I have exceeded more then people like you could dream of.

I have a customer who I know makes above $100k. He has a heavy beard and one day I asked him if it got itchy. He replied that it dosnt but he makes sure he keeps it clean. " even on the days I dont shower I make sure I wash it" I almost puked. The dude has days he dosnt shower. How discusting is that.
