Every time the subject of race comes up - it's now 'race baiting'. An effective tool at ending any and all communication on the subject.

President Obama is right - the next generation sees things soo differently.

Wow!!!

So did I but its pointless to try and get some people to see it that way.

His speech was intelligent; thoughtful, calming ~ and he tried to bring EVERYONE in on how we move forward.

I guess it's distinctly unsurprising that the OP didn't like it.

Nope. Never enough actually. He asks for it and deserves it.

Maybe you should start a few Obama brown-noser threads. Its what you people do every time you talk about the guy.

Obama's remarks pertained to the unjustified profiling of Trayvon, as well as the common application and acceptance/tolerance of profiling in our country at large. Nothing wrong with what he said.

Sorry Little-Acorn, not guilty does not mean innocent.

As usual, the Zimmerman-haters can only support their agenda by lying about the man.

I'm not surprised.

I agree.

It was what he DIDN'T say, that was wrong with the remarks.
