I saw this posted on another forum & thought it was interesting:
People always need to remember that a white woman gave birth to Barack Obama, and he was raised by white people for the first 18 years of his life. Being raised by white people totally shaped his thinking. Then he went to two mostly white colleges. For most of his life Barack Obama has been in mostly white environments and that totally shaped his thinking.
Even though his skin is brown his mind is white.
A the end of the day many black people are disappointed in him, because he's done things against blacks that white politicians hasn't even done.
Let's take a look at some of them.
1. Obama made his cabinet 99% white, even though many blacks and people of other races voted for him.
2. His cabinet was not diverse at all.
3. He mainly picked people from white Ivy League schools to fill his cabinet.
4. Obama CUT FUNDING to Africa, in the fight against AIDS. This caused many people in Africa to die because of the lack of AIDS medicine.
5. Haiti is a poor black country. Obama fought against Haiti raising their minimum wage above 31 cents an hour. This was pushed by then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. They said that it would be bad for the American companies that have factories in Haiti.
6. Obama put American greed over the well being of the blacks in Haiti.
7. Obama bombed the AFRICAN country of Libya killing 1000's of innocent men, women, and children that wasn't bothering anybody.
8. Obama and NATO also killed the president of that African country, who was very close friends with Nelson Mandela.
9. Today that African country is totally destabilized because of it, to the point where people are now risking their lives trying to flee that country by sea on makeshift rafts.
10. Obama sold weapons to South Sudan and three other African countries that use child soldiers.
11. Obama threaten to put sanctions on different African countries because of their stance on the gay lifestyle.
12. Obama extended sanction on the African country of Zimbabwe, saying that president Robert Mugabe government policy interferes with American foreign interest. Mugabe doesn't bow down to European pressure, therefore he's disliked by the U.S. government.
13. Obama refused to go to the United Nations Conference on Racism.
14. Here in America Obama CUT FUNDING to black colleges. Which hurt many black students trying to go to college.
15. Obama said that he's against reparations for black descendants of slaves.
16. Black Americans said that they wanted to see another black person on the Supreme Court, maybe even a black woman.Obama nominated three people to the Supreme Court and neither one was black.
17. In his book Dreams from my Father, Obama speaks against Black Nationalism.
18. Obama denounced the black pastor of the church that he went to. He also left that church as if they had never done anything for him. He did that in order to be acceptable to whites.
19. In a press conference speaking against his former pastor Rev Jeremiah Wright, Obama criticized Rev Wright for praising Minister Louis Farrakhan calling him one of the greatest voices of the 20 Century .
20. A president can push for any bill they want to. A president can ask Congressmen and Senators to write a bill and try to get it pushed through. The police are killing unarmed blacks everyday, and in 8 years Obama did not asked the Congress or the Senate to write laws to crack down on bad police. He chose not to. But Obama asked the Supreme Court to rule in favor of legalizing gay marriage.
21. Michael Brown was an unarmed black kid killed by a police officer in Ferguson Missouri. For months this was the biggest news story in America, it even made headline news around the world. To this very day Obama has not even set foot in Ferguson to pay his respects and talk to the blacks in that town.
22. Obama NEVER met with any of the parents of unarmed blacks killed by the police.
23. Democrat Joe Biden wrote the 3 Strike Law that filled up the prison with blacks, and Barack Obama made him his vice president.
24. Obama ignored black people for the whole 8 years he was in the white house. But he did everything he could for gays and other groups.
25. Obama passed a law to protect the police, but he never passed a law to stop the police from killing unarmed blacks.
26. Marcus Garvey was one of the greatest black leaders that the world had ever seen, he organized millions of black people. He taught black people to love themselves, and be proud of the way that God made them. He taught blacks to come together and do for self. Garvey built factories, grocery stores and other things, and by doing so he created 1000's of jobs for blacks. Marcus Garvey was lied on an falsely sent to prison. People have asked Barack Obama to pardon Marcus Garvey but he has refused.
27. White countries raped, robbed and exploited African countries through colonialism, they crippled the continent of Africa by taking it's natural resources, and Africa is still seeing the negative affects of colonialism today. Many African countries are still being exploited by whites today. Well known white companies are still using slave labor in Africa today, and some are even using child slave labor. (But Barack Obama went to Africa and told blacks to stop blaming their problems on colonialism).
28. Assata Shakur is a black woman and a political prisoner, and under Barack Obama, she was put on terrorist Most Wanted List, she's the first woman that the U.S. Government has ever put on the terrorist list. Even though she's not a terrorist, and she's never blown up anything.
29. White presidents have pardon white politicians, and even a few black politicians. In 8 years Obama has not pardon any black politician, even though some are in prison for minor charges.
30. After getting 90% of the black vote, Obama got in the white house and said that it's wrong for him to focus on the troubles of black people. But he focused on helping gays.
31. Obama cut food stamps by 8 billion dollars, hurting some of the poor people that voted for him.
If a person with white skin had done those things, what would be the reaction of most black people?
Eight years after Obama being in the white house, blacks are in the same condition or worse, with nothing to show for him being in that position.
