Of course not, but making the conversations main stream and having the weight of the POTUS behind them would’ve brought about some changes.
You know people say this, and I'm not so sure.

Trump is only marginally successful but because they own the courts and the congress.

Obama owned the Congress for like... 6 or 9 months?

And on top of that, most of what he got was executive actions, which are extremely fragile.

Obama govern safe like a kenyan.

He wasnt aados and it showed in his whole approach.

Blacks wanted him to fight for blacks more than he did and that never came to fruition cause it's not in him.

Blacks need a aados president not a mullatto African. We need a person who will fight for our issues like other community get there issues fought for.


I mean gay marriage
Immigration
Etc were fore front issues for them in his last term but nothing for aados.


We're usually thrown in a diversity or minority thing but never addressed indivually.

It is what it is.

If you look at what he did say publicly, that was enough for white people to accuse Obama of race baiting, creating racial tension and taking the side of black people over the police. If you ask white conservatives, they will legit tell you that Obama is the cause for racial problems in America. A white conservative former Senator (Rick Santorum) on CNN already said it a few weeks ago.

Can you imagine if he said what he really felt? Them white folks would have been ready to lynch him in front of Capitol Hill.

In retrospect we wanted the polar opposite of Trump but radically on our side and Barry took the safe route. Career and history wise he did the right thing because he’ll be remembered as a Martin and not a Malcolm. Even though we fukk with Malcolm, not many others do. I wanted Barry to wild out a little. Sign reparations into law, outlaw racists groups, etc.
This was the problem with much of the criticism of Obama. People just straight up don't know the law. Signing reparations into law would require compliance from Congress. I'm not even sure you could have gotten that from a Democratic Congress, forget the Republican Congress he had. And you can't outlaw a group on the simple fact they are racist. It's called Free Speech. The demands put on this man by many people were just ridiculous.

Trump said he was gonna ban Muslims and build a fukking wall...

He got the Muslim ban and he probably gonna build the fukking wall...

Trump just proves what having balls and audacity can do instead of trying to be "reasonable" and "respectful" and "moderate"...

I don't wanna hear about how our demands were outrageous when this motherfukker Trump is probably gonna get everything he wants...

Dude is too real ... he just knew white people would overreact :wow:

He knew he couldn't just say cops were on some bullshyt because of the backlash :wow:

The Skip Gates thing changed his perception on white people being reasonable... :wow:

He knew he had to work twice as hard to not fukk it up for everyone else :wow:

He knew he was the Jackie Robinson of this shyt :wow:

He already knew white people were on some bullshyt... :wow:

What's the point of being in that office if he can't say how he felt about a group of people being mistreated by the same system he governor? Why not say shyt when you a lame duck with nothing to lose? Why bring up the grievances of every other group besides the one that needed it most? The guy is a spineless jellyfish because him not speaking on it is the same as saying it don't exist in the eyes of white supremacist.

Yes he would have pissed people off by speaking on it but so fukking what, them same people still don't like his ass anyway, and him speaking on it could possibly got the ball rolling in the right direction but we'll never know because he scared to offend WS.

This just made me dislike him more about the way he tap dance over the mistreatment of black folks. I mean even now out of office I bet he won't say shyt or I guess we got wait for hidden messages in his Netflix's movies..Smh. I can't lie I feel str8 up played by this cat, not because I thought he could change the world but because he so damn spineless.

he supposed to get props for knowing blacks are getting fukked over and not doing shyt to further his liberal political agenda? Most whites dont fukk with gays or immigrants but he didn't have a problem battling for them.
