Since Obama has been elected I've only seen him surrounded by his cronies from Acorn and his crooked Cabinet. I hardly ever see him in the same frame with Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, or any of the fringe Black groups like the NAACP and the Black Caucus? I haven't even seen him do a town hall meeting on BET yet and he's done at least 10 so far across the nation on CNN, MSNBC, and MTV etc.... Why does it seem like this guy doesn't connect with the Black comunity of America?

Because those are the little people. A Powerful politician has no time for lower class African Americans.

Oh this is just too precious & so convenient....let me guess, if he were to do that, you guys would be up in arms declaring that Obama doesn't care about white people & he's only in it to move the black race forward....am I right? Of course I'm right. Troll thread.

It might have something to do with the fact that he considers himself the president, not the black president. Big difference. He is the president of all us, no matter our color...in case it needs to be spelled out to anyone.

Don't you get it? They WANT him to do something like that so they can immediately jump up & cry "RACISM!!!" and "WE KNEW IT ALL ALONG!!!" God you guys are so transparent it's sad.

How very disappointing. Can you name the ACORN cronies he surrounds himself with? (Names and links, please).

Can you provide links that he has never spoken with the Black Caucus or the NAACP? Just curious. Until then...

Why isn't Obama in league with the NAACP? or the Black Caucus?

Because socialists, and leftists of all stripes, cannot stand competition.
