That is a generalization that gives no specifics. You have done nothing but prove my point.

Also, "kept unemployment high" 7.3 is much lower than the 10.1 we saw and the height of the recession.And the unemployment for African Americans run about the same percentage spread.

so again, name some specific policy ?

Liberals are statists to the core. So what they want is more and more and more power/control. They want the average citizentards to be glassy-eyed sheeple in support of their poison.

It is a great thing in the Libs eyes.....the type of control, via government brainwashing and programs, that they have over African Americans.

I agree with Tavis....and If I may sound prophetic, I predicted such before Obama was elected in 2007, to the disapproval of many of my brothers and sister. Obama has the effect of pacifying black folks during a time that we do not need to be passive. I think Obama's color is being utilized in the way that Republican use black folks as proxies to say and do things that they would be considered racist for saying or doing. I do not think that the collapsing of America was as much as a "surprise" as they make it seem. It did not take a rocket scientist to see it coming.....even I predicted an economic collapse as far back as 2004. Blacks have traditionally been the thorn in the side of this government, as we never trusted the BS rhetoric. We were the people exposing the little man behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz fashion. We have not supported any wars in the last 50 years. We did not support bombing and invading third world nations. We always doubted the official story of the government. That all ended when Obama came along. If Obama says we need to bomb or invade some country....the black community will support it without question.....not all....but the majority. Hell... the US military is all up in Africa with AFRICOM these days. Obama lead the way in Bombing Libya and a leader who will dolling out BILLIONS to build up Africa and to create African Unity....but I digress.

That having been said.....Its not Obama's fault that the black condition is worsening and out plight would likely be worse if a republican was in office instead of Obama.

That is the blacks problem..... Like i said slavery still exists...... Search slavery in Brasil. But I know you won't. For 300 year blacks were slaves in Brazil and that didn't end until 1888 officially but yet today there are still out breaks of blacks under slavery there still.

Funny how no one not even other blacks will talk about that. I guess it would be hard to do that and still whine, beg, and plead to be on the govt tit huh?


Even Allen West told Obama 'You're a Brat!" be my guest instead of pull on your work boots and go to work just bed and whine..... it hasn't worked yet, and it never will but we white will never care...

Ever Africans blacks the real ones, don't like to be around you African-Americans.

78 years under American law created the biggest bunch of loser the world has ever known.

"The Blacks" problems has traditionally been "The whites". Human life is said to have begin in Africa thousands of years ago. Hence, blacks folks have been around THE LONGEST and without any help from anyone else. Certainly if blacks were dysfunctional human life would not have began and continued in Africa for so long. Sure...you can look at Africa as a basket case now....dependent upon Western aid, but one has to honestly ask how blacks managed to survive thousands of years without the help of white folks. Its probably because black folks did not need the help of white folks until white folks started taking the people, lands and resources.....in return for the bible.
