And people outside of the White House who already have ill feelings towards people of certain races/ethnicities. The racial divide is already there. There are people out there who still believe that segregated schools are a good things. The President didn't have to do anything. We are already at that point, and have been at that point long before the President came along.
You will never be able to force any human to join another tribe.
They have to first want to join another tribe and second is being accepted in the other tribe when they want to join.
Two issues in human nature that have never been overcome with another mans manipulation.
It always ends in violence, to rid the other tribe from the resources needed to survive.

And it is tribalism that is making it very hard for people to just be Americans.
I don't consider it manipulation to want to be accepted and treated equally by society.
A racial activist is in the whitehouse.
Has anyone even read Michelle's college thesis? The hatred for the white guy is out there for all to see.
The appointed Attorney General is a full on racial activist.
Al Sharpton has been a leading adviser to the whitehouse.
Need I say more?
This is why things are worse.
Any skinheads or elderly white racists that "came out because of Obama" are a drop in the bucket in comparison, usually hiding in the shadows or slowly dying off, unlike the black power folks here would have you believe.
Government involvement has created more harm than good.
Evolution happens.
Being forced causes resentment and hate.
Subjecting people to Jim Crow laws, that was hate, and it caused more hate. Sometimes without government involvement, hate continues. When one segment of society does not have a say in what they want, what they need, and is treated like second class citizens, hate and anger will take place.

What he's telling you in a roundabout way is that YOUR anger and resentment doesn't matter...
Many Americans believed the racial divide would improve when the first black president was elected.
Since Obama has taken office, would you say racial tensions have:
A. Improved
B. Stayed about the same
C. Gotten worse
FYI
A public poll has been added. ~ibginnie
The President and Holder hate whites. That's okay. It's a free country. Can't stop them. Hiring Sharpton proves it. Not an issue. In two years he's a distant and disliked memory. History will probably judge him harshly but, no one really cares.
His contributions have helped set back relations for at least 50 years. Congratulations to those that voted for him. Juuuuuust when things were improving.....no matter, Al Sharpton will be looking for another post next time and even Hillary won't hire him. Too much of a liability. Should be interesting to read his memoirs though. No doubt they will be filled with slightly veiled dislike of whites. It will sell to 20 percent of the public and the money will help him and his family although he will go down in historical flames no matter how much the liberals will try to support him.
It's pretty laughable and just as predicted, immediately after the mid-terms he has started to show his true colors with immigration and his plans to fundamentally (continue) to change America. To what? It's anyone's guess. For me, this has been THE worst president we have ever had in the last 50 years. I thought Carter sucked but, this guy is a vacuum by comparison. Perhaps if he just didn't hate America so much he might have moved the ball a bit but, he was too caught up in his treatment as a youth and training from his part-time dad.
Two more years and it's over. Just have to keep him in check two more years. As much as I dislike Hillary, she would have been light years better than this guy. In fact, Edwards would have been better and we all know what a POS HE turned out to be. Pretty bad ratings. Won't improve much now either.
In everyday real life, I believe it stayed the same. On the internet due to internet anonymity, it's gotten worst because people can post any racially hateful thing they want without consequence. On both sides.
I really don't think tensions are as bad as some in media (...cough CNN), and racebaiters(SHARPTON, & JACKSON)would like people to believe.

Two guys.
Never said they were the only ones. They certainly seem to be the most active in my opinion. They certainly don't help things for the most part.
