Truth is, Blacks finish last no matter who the President is. We're doing alot better compared to the 60s, but we still finish last compared to everyone else.
Sean “Diddy” Combs said Sunday that black voters won’t get fooled again — insisting that Hillary Clinton has to prove herself before she gets the African-American vote since “[blacks] got a little bit shortchanged” by President Obama.
“My number one thing, though, to be honest, is black people,” the rapper turned mogul told the Rev. Al Sharpton on his MSNBC show Sunday. “I feel like we put President Obama in the White House. When I look back, I just wanted more done for my people because that’s the name of the game.
...
Diddy, who just opened up a charter school in Harlem, apparently isn’t buying Clinton’s wide lead among African Americans over GOP opponent Donald Trump. Clinton’s spent many Sundays visiting black churches and made gun violence and police shootings a platform of her campaign through talks with African mothers whose children were killed.
“Hillary Clinton, you know, I hope she starts to directly talk to the black community. … It really makes me feel, you know, almost hurt that our issues are not addressed and we’re such a big part of the voting bloc.”
Two things...
1- He's right in that black people get no return on investment with regards to the percentage that vote for Democrats (not me).
2- We will not makes real advancement unless we do it ourselves and not depend on government. To which I give him a thumbs up for starting two charter schools on his own dime.
I think he is really pussed because black didn't get more "free" stuff like that delirious woman who claimed she would never have to worry about paying her mortgage etc once Obama got into the WH.
Trillion dollars....We spent more on Wall Street in just a few short years.
For what? The ghettos are dirty and appears the people don't think it is their job to clean it up. What will more money fix? There are houses selling for one dollar in some areas, why aren't they buying up these homes fixing them and reselling them if need be?
08 was 8 years ago, but I think that was more of Hillary supporters being labeled racist than her, and then there was that Bill Clinton comment. But again, not her being labeled racist.
Uh; to hear a LOT of "Black" people say it; they'll NEVER vote Repub so Hillary has most of those voters in her hand.

Toss the hood rats OUT and; I think Black people ARE doing better and better even withOUT Black Africans pushing them higher in $$ numbers. Nigerians and so on have the rep of doing real well here in the US; even better than Asians.

Some tell me, "I am a Democrat and I have to vote for a Democrat".......that is some damn dedication, when the party is not about the people or for the people!

I dont recall mentioning more money.
Wall Street is continuing it's same failed ways and we are still bailing it out to the detriment of the poor.
If you disagree with more help should we all not agree to at least quit harming them?
I swear, it's quite comical to see conservatives twist things around and omit parts of statements in order to make their viewpoint known, often times in stark contrast to what someone is actually saying.
Also comical to see every time some non-white person, often black, criticizes a Democratic president, candidate, or the Democratic Party in general, then it's proof positive that he or she is validating Republicans If the governor of Puerto Rico comes out and says he's voting for Trump, who cares? I'm still not voting for that lunatic
Which means that The state utility, and environmental resources boards approve it and then take a eminent domain claim to a federal judge. Are you arguing that the president should direct judges to deny the claims ?????
Thats the only way you could be saying that he has something to do with it.
The states have little to no power at all in the decision making process. Once FERC gives the go ahead, the environmental resource boards succumb and collapse.
The only reason many of these projects are in holding pattern is because both the oil/nat gas markets retracted to their lowest levels in 12-15 years.
Williams co, Kinder Morgan, etc, saw their share price reduced by as much as 80 percent. KMI was trading at nearly 45$ in late 2015, in late January 2016, it traded as low as 11.80
Every energy investor understands had the markets not collasped, all those projects would have been given the green light by barkey's administration.
By the way.....Obama is not the first black president - he's the first black puppet for wall street.
If Hillary should by chance win, she won't be the first female president, but instead, the fist female puppet for wall street.
