And I see the same people that only come out for topics like this are posting again
A shot at me?
Yeah, I came out. To explain something extremely simple -- that many can't seem to get.
On my Obama comment -- IMO, I don't think Barack would have won without Michelle.
Fight me. Make a new thread. Take a picture. I don't care..LOL
We actually discussed this via a ADOS professional group of 25K Black women. I'll post some replies.
This is a LIE!No. He would have won just as easily if his wife was Kamala Harris instead.
Black was black back then. Nobody cared about ADOS back in 2008 or 2012.
This is some tribalist shyt that has only started recently. I mean we got clowns now talking bout Biggie Smalls ain't black cause his parents were Jamaican. This is definitely some new shyt. It didn't exist a few years ago.
Ain't no regular black people sitting around thinking where a nikka is from.
This is a LIE!
All major American Media did stories about Michelle Obama’s ADOS Heritage.
Even Obama himself said he wouldn’t have won without her!
Haven’t bothered paying attention to the rest of this thread, so I’m just going to address this part here:On my Obama comment -- IMO, I don't think Barack would have won without Michelle.
This is what got me confused.
How did we go from Black Panther in 2018 to this in 2019?
White supremacists gotta be laughing they ass of at this thread.
Haven’t bothered paying attention to the rest of this thread, so I’m just going to address this part here:
I think Obama would have won in 2008 without Michelle. Definitely the general election.
The Democrats had every advantage in that election. George W. Bush and the GOP had been in charge 8 years and were deeply unpopular thanks to economic regression (that turned into an utter catastrophe) and two badly-handled wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Dems swept the House and Senate in 2006 largely because of this, and already had the momentum even before Obama came into the picture.
McCain was never able to take control of the narrative. He was never able to separate himself from the Republicans, namely Bush. He never had the charisma that Obama did, nor did he have his speaking ability. He managed his campaign terribly. The only thing McCain ever did that gave him even a little edge was to bring on Sarah Palin as his running mate, and that only worked for all of a week or so until Palin started speaking, became a national laughingstock, and it backfired horribly on him. In everything he did, McCain was erratic and reactionary.
Obama’s an intelligent politician who came in a situation tailor-made for him to win. America hated the GOP at the time, McCain ran a badly-managed campaign, and Obama offered something new and exciting to a country badly wanting it. Remember that he won that election by a very large margin for a reason.
This also applies to Hillary, too. People wanted someone new (hence why Obama's "Hope" and "Change" slogans caught on), not a re-tread, and Hillary had political baggage even back then. She also fukked up enough on her own and Obama was just a flat-out better campaigner than she was. Michelle definitely helped, but I wouldn't say she was the decisive element of that at all.
Yeah, OK.
"Aye breh, she bad as hell but I wonder if's she's ADOS or Nigerian"
Yeah, OK
:koool:
Ain't no regular black people sitting around thinking where a nikka is from.
@kayslay If people are discounting Michelle lineage/ethnicity as one of the main contributors to both of Obama's wins -- they crazy.

That's the problem. "Regular black people" just means uninformed and uninterested in political issues.
There is no need to know what a Jewish candidate thinks about Jewish issues, it usually goes without say. But people DEFINITELY want to know what a non jew candidate thinks about issues such as AIPAC and the State of Israel.
So we need to know where a candidate stands on certain issues. But Kamala Harris is trying to exist in that void in between...where shes black on the surface but able to call someone a racist if they question her allegiance to black people.
