Why is Obama only supposed to support blacks? Isn't the chief commanding officer (aka president) supposed to be a voice for everyone regardless of nationality or heritage? We all came here as immigrants to begin with anyhow minus the Native Americans.

This is rich. I mean, it doesn't get any funnier than this. Whites and blacks should NOW come together because you're scared of the brown hordes. LMAO....i can't stop laughing at the thought.

The same folks that wouldn't give a black person the time of day all of a sudden wants unity. But as soon as the brown hordes are squashed, it's back to the same old bull again. Unity OVER!!

I have never been against black Americans. I've always admired Martin Luther King and the whole black civil rights movements.

But no -- I've never been in favor of limitless immigration.

Very strange that blacks are the only people who many of you think will be affected by this. And you all say we are divisive....

I hope the unemployed emerge as this year's swing group and remember the 800,000 when they vote.

This concerns ALL Americans who don't have the opportunity to do anything except lower level jobs.

Keep in mind plenty of White people voted for Obama as well, to put the onus of getting him in and out of office based on the Black vote is ludicris at best, delusional at worst.

I work with plenty of White liberals who love Obama and have stated to me on many occasions that they plan to vote for him again.
Idiots.

The DREAMies will soon replace whites in what used to be considered predominantly white middle class jobs.

Just because they are not all over CD talking about the elections you can't assume that Blacks will or won't even bother to vote. At the end of the day nobody knows how Blacks will vote or if they will come out in droves to vote in November.

Just make sure that you get out and vote.
Oh, praise be! Someone who can see the WHOLE picture! Thank you.

Obama Immigration | Breaking News for Black America

African Americans represent the demographic that is most supportive of President Obama, yet they are the most devastated by the effects of mass incarceration.

With his announcement on illegal immigration, Obama has effectively granted immunity to nearly 800,000 illegal immigrants who clearly broke the law. All the while, he is unwilling to seek the release of thousands of men and women who were sentenced under drug laws that even the president knows to be clearly unjust. He made campaign promises to black Americans that he would fight diligently on their behalf to end the war on drugs, but has shown the courage of a toothless ***** cat who’s had his claws removed.

The time for patience with the Obama Administration should be over, and African Americans who’ve deluded themselves into believing that their first Black president loves them need to take a step back and look at reality.
I think it's a slap in the face for you to assume that drugs and prisons are the main concern for most Blacks.

Stereotype much? Let me guess, some of your best friends are Black??

Hint -- since you didn't seem to figure it out for yourself -- I did not write that article. Someone else did.
