“The case cites the collective work of over 350 legal scholars and includes Congressional records, case law, research from our nation’s top history professors, racist statements from Democratic elected officials, citations from the Democrats’ National Platforms regarding their support of slavery, excerpts of speeches from Senator Obama, individual testimonies from blacks who lived in the Jim Crow South and opinions from the NAACP,” the press release states.
Perryman said President Obama was also named as a defendant because of his position as the official leader of the Democratic Party, and also due to certain statements he made about his party in his book “Dreams from My Father.”
In 2009, the president was asked to issue an apology to blacks on behalf of his party, but refused, according to the Frederick Douglass Foundation.
The suit seeks a public apology, but no monetary damages.

Well, this is amusing. The same folks who march on stage to tell us that black people are the *real* racists, and that the tea partiers waving signs of Obama with a bone through his nose are totally colorblind, are now suing Obama for not apologizing for...what, the Confederacy?
Uh, republicans, I have to tell you, these people are hustling you. They'll never lead any significant number of black people to vote for your candidates, or to support your issues. Their shouts of "democrat plantation" and "welfare" do you far more harm than good, by offending the people you hope they persuade. It would be far better for the GOP to actually build networks within black communities, present their philosophy, and push for their political points, than to stand around and listen to some random person babble about how MLK was supposedly a republican.

I love a "class action" lawsuit without names of the plaintiffs.
By the way, love the Facebook page, all of 14 comments and not a single one from an African American.
