He is not fighting anymore and I to was in the military doesn't mean you keep that stupid hair cut. But it is a visible sign to how disconnected he is.

One of my cousins chose to rent for 20 years in a low income are in order to keep her children in private school and ultimately college. This bias when discussing Blacks in low income area's compared to Whites who live in low income trailer parks is why Republicans are accused of being out of touched, biased ect.
You live where you can afford until you can afford more. Who the Politcian is in office at the time to me means absolutely nothing.
I do have to agree with you here, I lived in the "poor" part of town until our son graduated from high school. We lived a street over from halfway houses and were happy. BUT low income areas are where most crime is committed. Most are stuck there for one reason or another.

Why do some white Democrats seem to know how a black man should act and feel? They don't want them straying off the reservation?
Why do some people put this nonsense on the board?

Low income areas are where the most crimes are reported. Low income areas are where those in the suburbs go to buy their drugs, frequent prostitues, strip bars. The suburbs have their issues as well that are not widely reported.

Child molestation
child abuse
Child endangerment
Spousal Abuse
Bank robbery
drunk driving

We get a crime report in the paper each week. We know what areas are getting hit by crime. Poor people are exploited that's for sure. Is welfare the answer or good jobs?
