Louis Farrakhan Speaks to the Racial Hatred Thrust Onto President Obama
by Dr. Boyce Watkins
Minister Louis Farrkhan, never a man to keep his words to himself, spoke about the hatred being spewed toward President Barack Obama and his family. He goes on to contextualize how this hatred is built from historical resentment of African Americans who either fail to “know their place” or demand that they be placed in positions of power and leadership.
Farrakhan’s remarks in support of President Obama might be surprising to some, after he bashed the president for being a Christian in support of gay marriage. But Farrakhan’s words make perfect sense to those who understand that you don’t have to worship Obama in order to support him. There is a clear difference between holding your president accountable and disliking him. Similarly, there is a clear line between supporting your president and agreeing with every decision he makes.
To some extent, supporting a politician can be like raising a child. You know that your black child has obstacles, but you never let those obstacles be a consistent excuse for him not keeping his commitments to you. Sure, the teacher might be mean and racist, but that’s no excuse for him to not do his homework. Yes, the boy down the street might call him nasty names, but that has nothing to do with whether or not he cleaned his room last night.
In some ways, some end up treating President Obama like that spoiled child being raised by a parent who feels sorry for him. Maybe because the boy doesn’t have a father at home, the mother showers him with Christmas gifts every year, doesn’t make him clean his room and allows him to be lazy.
Maybe because he’s a black male dealing with a racist society, she doesn’t yell at him for living in her basement well into his twenties, sitting in front of the TV all day playing X-box in his underwear. In other words, she might think that loving her son and empathizing with his pain means that she shouldn’t push him too hard. After all, the world is pushing him hard enough, and by getting on him for what he’s not doing, she may feel that she is adding to the weight of his oppression.
This line of thinking is what creates so many men who never learn the responsibilities of manhood. They are raised in situations that spoil them, never teach them to work hard and never demand accountability. As a result, such a man grows up thinking that he can make 10 babies and not pay child support. He thinks that he can live with his mama until he’s 32-years old. He thinks that he can break the law and then cry in the courtroom when the judge sends him to prison. It’s all a very familiar process and many of us know men like this in our own families.
This line of thinking must also apply in how we process the good and bad of the Obama Administration. Demanding something for your vote doesn’t mean that you’re piling onto the criticism from the Republicans, it means that you’re doing what you’re supposed to do. Also, supporting the president doesn’t mean that you have to fall in love with him. There is no room for love in politics. That’s like falling in love with Wal-Mart: Their goal is not to love you; rather, their consistent objective is to get as much money from you as they possibly can.
They say that you’re wasting your vote if you don’t show up to the polls. Actually, you’re also wasting your vote if you support a politician and ask for nothing in return. Farrakhan, by remaining supportive yet critical, is maintaining the objectivity necessary to make good political decisions. He is actually in alignment with Colin Powell, who makes it clear that he is no one’s political slave. Ironically, although Powell and Farrakhan appear to be on different sides of the political fence, they are very similar kinds of black men: They both believe in old school values, have strong leadership ability, and understand the strategies necessary to win battles and wars.
Maybe we can learn a few things from the both of them. Farrakhan’s video is below.

He is quite right, of course. Whites are terrified of what President Obama means for their never-ending feeling of entitlement to White privilege – which they know can only be held onto by force. But the use of such force is shaming for Whites because it reveals their White supremacy. That Whites have painted themselves into a corner with their race hatred and xenophobia is what will ultimately drive them to a lemmings’ demise.
Frank Talker really he was talking about black america’s not ask President Obama to be accountable to us for our vote!!!!!! If you realized black america has had the greatest loss and the president wouldn’t address us politically!
Black America didn’t start losing in 2008; and it’s not going to stop losing after he’s gone.
Black folk don’t care enough about themselves for Obama to have made that much of a difference.
All decent people, black and white will support President Obama. He is the only viable choice in November for decent and intelligent people.
For the First time in American History they have to Deal with a New Thing Black Autority it’s new to Whitefolks a Blackman Making Judgement calls! We know you Demons don’t like it but y’all better get used to it! Put your Demon selves into our shoes for a minute,The just elected another Whiteman? Another one! d**n do he like Blackpeople no! lol y’all need to chill because your Racism is starting to seep out lol we always knew you all for what you have always practiced the last 484 years Evil towards people who don’t look like you Demons!
Minster Farrakhan is absolutely right! The election of Obama did spark hope and change FOR US NEGROS. Seeing the blatant disrespect of our president (because he is black) only shows what America really and truly believes about us. Even as president these folks think they don’t have to respect US! Now its time again to forget about hoping they will see the light. It’s time to change our stagnant, all is well attitudes and demand respect, equality and revive the Dubois spirit. This is our wake up CALL! Educated Negros terrify America’s racist. They rather see our men locked up, dead, cracked out, or feminine. I don’t agree with everything Obama does BUT I REFUSE to talk negatively about him. I supported him when he was senator of my state, in 2008 and WILL continue to in 2012.
Are you reading the article. It calls on us to hold Obama to be accountable to us! We stand by taking the leading edge of the draconian economic policies and say nothing! that is a waste of your vote!!!!!!!
Add to that the sledge hammer he has taken to our constitution rights we should be screaming at the top of our lungs!
fine if that’s boyce’s opinion..but he shouldn’t try to use farakhan as a subterfuge to make his point.
like someone already said, farakhan’s speech was about hate, nothing about holding obama accountable.
You are absolutely true. Watkins should be a shame of himself for “using Farakhan’s as a subterfuge to make his point.” That was so transparent!
@ brian
when you ask if he read the article, that it calls on us to hold obama accountable. unlike you, it’s obvious from his post that he read the article and listened to the video.
yes we need to read more, but some of us need to listen as well….as in the video before popping off!
I co-sign 100%!!
When ever a Black man speakes up for those that are less fortunate than those that have you can bet the Racism seem to come out. I don’t approve of every thing the President has said or done yet I will be voting for him because he has proven that he was elected to serve all the people of the United States and have done all he could considering the circumstance he inheriet before coming into office.
Great write-up Boyce – keep these types of educational post coming!
I think Min. Farrakhan’s assessment of SOME white’s distrust and phobia of our black president is right on target. Recently it was reported in the news that over 50% of White Americans didn’t believe that he is Christian, and we’re still hearing Donald “Duck” Trump and that racist Sheriff in Arizona claim proof that Obama isn’t an American. But, on an unrelated note that I’m curious about, does anyone know what Farrakhan did with the 8 million USD Quadafi gave to Louis? Or the millions he collected to build that medical center in Chicago? Or the 100′s of thousands he collected in donations to create that line of cleaning products under the brand name “Power?” Or the 10′s to 100′s of thousands I saw collected at the Million Man March?
he didn’t receive the money from QUADAFI the U.S. government told him if he took the money he would not be permitted back in the U.S.A. as far as all the other money you mentioned I think it was used to build an economic infrastructure for the NATION OF ISLAM…hope this helps.I have no problem with Min.Farrakhan I wish more pastor’s were bold enough to follow his lead…
boyce, are we listening to the same video? you took farakhan’s speech about hate towards obama and twisted it into a conversation about worshiping obama, and the difference between holding obama accountable and disliking him.
you’re using the minister reputation as being controversal to mislead the readers who do not take the time to listen to the video. not once in the minister’s speech did he talk about holding obama accountable or any of the other issues you raised in your piece in the video.
in the video, when the minister talk about the climate being built up by racist whites and jews to kill our brother, he was remiss in not including you in that group.
people please listen to the video before being manipulated by boyce by using words/topic never mentioned by minister farakhan to increase traffic on this site to attract more white advertisers for profit.
shame on you boyce…how low are you willing to go for a dollar? i see a pattern in you using the minister to support your disdain for obama, be careful, you might get a visit from the F.O.I.
While you are right in you assessment, a visit from the FOI! If Dr. Boyce is the target of our response to our condition then twisting the ministers words is not the issue. The FOI has yet to address any of the Liberal/conservatives racists and elite that run this wicked government! Ad to that Obama has seen our community run deep into poverty, poverty is at it’s worst since 1965 and guess what we America sneezes we (Black America)get pneumonia!!!!!!.
@ Brian
you say: The FOI has yet to address any of the Liberal/conservatives racists and elite that run this wicked government!
one can only assume you don’t know anything about the (foi) fruit of islam to make that statement. to enlighten you, farrakhan, as head of the nation of islam, is commander-in-chief of the (foi) which is a security team of black men for the noi.
would you now like to rescind your statement that the foi (farrakhan) has yet to address the liberal/conservative racist that run this wicked government? if anyone is known for speaking out against the government..it’s the minister. smh..lol
Mustafa…GOD BLESS you my brotha !!!!! you hit it RIGHT ON THE HEAD ABOUT Boyce & his hatred of our president !!!
The sad part is….one doesn’t have to be president for them to hate you. Just be black and unafraid….they will hate on you! They can’t help it….it’s in their DNA.
Well, now is a time of Black people to have a very real “Reality Check.” We have four year of political and social disconcern over the actual plight that we face.
For Obama has reached out to these white people across the ale and now Obama has never spoken to Black people and has no interests in speaking to us.
As we come to the another year to the next election, for we have come to a very interesting fork in the road of Black America. We have to make a choice of coming election for the presidency–we see a comical team as among the GOP–while at the same time we see a very articulate and polished protector of corporate capital in Black face.
It would seem that as a community, our political sensibilities of culture is not a naivety, but actually the looking forward to being seduced and abandoned as “the way” forward.
I will not go into what this Obama has done for the rich and white %1 percent in the last four years.
For Obama has only been a “Buckwheat” for corporate capital, yes must we support “Buckwheat” Obama reelection, we must face this question in a very real way
Dear Mister Malik,
I am confused by what you just said, your “Buckwheat” Obama that “yes, we must support ‘Buckwheat’ Obama reelection(?…)” For here I’m confused your “Buckwheat” Obama has spend nearly four years in the White House and single-mindedly defended the interests of the financial elite or in other words the “%1 percent.” While it has become noted politically obvious that he feels his most loyal base is infinitely gullibe, while it has been seen that your “Buckwheat” Obama has no interests in mobilizing his loyal Black base for his reelection campaign. I was wondering what is the reality check that we as black people should do? For our esteem Minster Farrakhan is just deals in moral axioms as political speech, while I do enjoy the dramtic theater of his speeches, but I am very aware they are simply “theater.”
Ha!
Dr Boyce…
I plead with you to help support President Obama…there is enough misinformation coming from the Republican Party, Tea Party and the fronts for the KKK to attack him.
Minister Farrakan assessment of the American Right is on target and these were just a small sampling of the messages that have been distributed across America and around the world about the President of the United States and only because he is a Black man.
Get onboard everyone before it is too late and unite for the reelection of President Obama
As one person said a few weeks ago, that the president is the president of the United States, and must interpret the constitution for all the people, not the democrats, not just the reopblicans, not just for the christians but for all the people.
In framing your remarks about Obama support of gay marriage, and Farrahkan remark about him being a christian and support gay marriage, show that Farrahkan, is as much an a*s as any one else. What does expect Obama, to do hate gays?. He is the president of all the people, not straight people all the people.
He make sense most of the time, but sometime even he act the fool sometime. We all know if you speak truth in the United States you will be persecuted in public opinion, thanks to the allmighty that public opinion is not the ultimate judge of us all.
I strongly disagree with Mr. Obama’s foreign policies in the middle east, and I speak to that, but that does not means that I dislike him. I like him as a person, but I do not like his foreign policies, and I surely hate the person he choose to lead that policy. Yes, I said I hate Hillary Clinton, I cannot stand the b***h.
As needed The Minister speaks the truth, as more and more of this country of ours become more black and brown, the issues are changing. White americans has always avoided the truth and they always have shown disrespect towards us Black Americans, and Now since we have one of our own in the White House,
Lord Have Mercy.
We will have an answer your disrespect in Nov.
The American Negro is the dumbest people on earth.
So glad the freedom fighters understood the conditioning of an enslaved people and their short coming. Thank God they didn’t disregard the ones suffering from a server state of mental illness from the bondage of slavery,and the cruel and mean spirit of a people who are to cowardly to be humane.
We do need a dose of love of self– and if we came together to employ and educate ourselves- we just may be able to Graduate from being the so called dumbest people on Gods earth.

I agree with everything that had been said:
White Male Privilege is being challenged,
White Males themselves are chaffing at the bit ( as my grand daddy used to say) because it hurts them to their CORE TO HAVE TO RESPECT THIS BLACK PRESIDENT.
And everyone needs to get out and vote!
It is clearer than ever that a Majority of the White
Electorate would rather elect a Mormon Moron who would hurl this country into a George Bush style doomsday scenario for our economy, ( and by the way, won’t do Jack Diddly for the middle-class ) JUST to get that Black Family OUT of that White House.
This whole thing makes me laugh. Homeboy was right, one must listen to the video and resist the urge to just respond. To hold up the “possible” killer of Malcolm X as a role model…ok…let’s just agree to disagree on things…stop twisting stories!
The white American winter monkey is the devil and scum of the earth. Wake up Black People. The Messenger spoke but are we getting The Messege?
Almasi Sidu Jitu. The money was returned because he had to declare himself an agent of Libya in order to accept it. But it did not matter. It was virtually impossible to get black people at that time to cooperate with him….too many was afraid to because it appeared to be racist. Besides, it was 5 million, not eight and since it was given to a religious organization.. it was not required to be reported. If you really want to know…contact the NOI. At the million man march…monies had to be paid for cleaning up and use of the venue. There real question is what is happening to your tax dollar in support of Isreal…to overthrow middle eastern government who refuse to trade or treaty with Isreal. Follow up on that… if you want to know something
Nice response. If we really pay attention to what is going on in Israel, we will see that Israel’s government is becoming one of the most corrupt in the world…with the support of our tax dollars. Our sympathy for the Jews is allowing them to mistreat Black Africans who cross Israel’s borders for security from tribal and Arab abuse in their home Countries, and the Jews are locking them up in concentration camps, reminiscent of those operated by Hitler.
Samasara13…..the CIA and FBI killed Brother Malcom Martin Luther King and all out great unafraid leaders. Have u ever heard of COINTELPRO. Stop posting ignorant comments about things you dont understand and go back and learn your History. Stop believing in the lies that the news, your teacher, and these winter monkeys tell you. The object of a devil is to deceive you.
Yeah lets ignore the fact that all of Malcolm’s killers were NOI members and Farrakhan has all but admitted he pushed them into doing it.
WAKE UP BLACK AMERICA!!!!The truth is, neither man is really a good candidate to run this country. However, Obama is the lesser of two evils. If you think black people, poor people, (that does include poor white people) have it bad under Obama, let Romney get elected, and you will really see how bad it’s gonna get. Our only hope for the way our country is going is to return to God and prayer. I know most of you are going to ridicule me for saying this, but if you would just stop and think, read, and be enlighten, you will see. However, I don’t care what you think of me, I know it will not come near my dwelling!! Psa. 91.
We have been saying that “better of two evils” c**p since…forever! As the ‘Anglo-elite’ control and use those politicians as surrogates the population is left to suffer all kinds of insane indignities! This is a constant no matter who inters the fake ‘office of the president’ and congress. Government is only a shell manned by a bunch of selfish diabolical, lying crooks. These crooks answer to a group of elite who understand that it’s better to steal everything behind a wall of flunky surrogates. That way they, commit the most heinous crimes agains mankind and can never, ever be touched! Vote for whoever you wish. Votes no longer count, and those in (fake) office no longer matter! Our minds are so confused by the proganda and jargon they use on us, that we never know if we are coming or going, but one thing is for sure..We are going to suffer worse no matter what ‘faker’ is placed in front of us! As “blacks” all we have is to keep trying to enjoy our (assimilated) lives by spending, copying and living the Anglo-American constructed lifestyles, which includes their styles of religious and ‘God’ beliefs! There is no waking up from this nightmare (some feel and believe) an “American Dream”!
WOW! I LOVE SOME LOUIS FARRAKHAN! HE IS THE TRUTH AND THE WAY! HE IS MY GUIDANCE FOR TRUTH! TALK ABOUT HIM FOR TELLING THE TRUTH BUT A HIGHER POWER IS GUIDING AND PROTECTING HIM! IT MUST BE SAID!
If something horrible were to happen to him. (Not that I want anything to happen to such a special person) What whould you say is guinding and protecting him then? It’s superstitious jargon, and ancient human concoctions that make up beliefs in ‘God’, or whatever religious ideals ‘humans’ like to believe in.
It’s difficult for some to grasp that they would not believe in these things if other people hadn’t introduced it. Believing in such unrealistic ritualistic fantasy is merely one of the signs of gross human lunacy. The signs are all around but many have minds that are totally blocked and are happy to have such blocked superstitous minds. If you are incouraged to contaminate everyones mind with your beliefs I am here to say that it’s all a figment of your vivid imagination!
HISTORY TELLS US THE OPPRESSED CAME FROM EURO COUNTRIES WHERE THEY WHERE OPPRESSED! FROM RELIGION TO BEING DENIED ALL THAT THE RICH WAS PRIVEY TOO ;ED/HOUSING ;ETC ,TO FEEL THEY ARE EQUAL THE MUST TRUELY OPPRESS; NATIVE AMERICANS/LATENIO’S AND OF ALL BLACKS!!!!!!!
i plead with boyce..since you have no respect in the black community..to please stop using someone that we love, respect and trust (minister farrakhan) to give credence to your articles to make president obama a one term president.
if you not thinking black this late day and age i am sorry for you
Bro Boyce,
Look Within Your Heart To Evaluate Its Intent.
Thank You For This Presentation To Our People. For You Are But One Of The Few Media That We Have In This Country To Convey Our Message.
Look Beyound Yourself.
Peace And Blessings
I Believe That Only Our Supposed Government Would Stoop To The Level Of Editing, Monitoring, Censoring And Modifying My Posts On This Site.
Why? Is Truth Such An Evil Practice These Days?
It doesn’t matter. When you have a President that keeps his wife’s best friend as the lady chair over the corrupt EEOC who destroyed not only my 16 year career but many others across this nation I refuse to vote for anyone who keeps this crooked agency in existence. I will not apologize for how I feel nor for the unlawful reason they have me struggling after taking many years of my life to work for the comfort zone I earned along with excellent health care. When they take into consideration THESE FACTS then maybe we can talk in D.C. to hear this message. How about that Minister Farrakhan?
There is truth to what he says, but most people begin rallying around Obama because they will get well rewarded. People don’t seem to understand the deep and vile criminal activities connected to the government which is made up of devious, lying politicians, and other wealthy top officials. If you do something for them, they might set you up for life, but if you cross them you might end up locked up or worse! Most are unable to see behind the cons and lies of these professionally paid tax thieves. They take our tax monies and do all sorts of things that benefit everyone but the people who are forced to pay taxes while they figure out new ways to spare each other from not only paying taxes but increasing their wealth because of positition and inside connections. So now who else wants an inside connection?
Farrakahn– today’s Prophet– like MLK- Malcom- and yesterdays Jesus- Abraham and Muhammad were the Prophets of their times. As the haters hated then- they are hating now.

I will vote for the man or woman that fight to right the wrongs of the greedy wealthy in government.For so long,they have taken advantage of the poor by stealing money and paying themselves million dollar bonus’ with citizen money.I don’t know what some of us is expecting from our residing President. if it’s jobs,he’s doing his best supporting and encouraging companies to keep business’ here in this country.He also encourages and supports the opening of new business’ that will put the people back to work. Education is also highly encouraged by this President so that the people will have the skills to work on the jobs when they become available.His Health care bill has already past. Now those that couldn’t afford health care will now be able to do so. A mojarity of the troops fighting in the war have returned home. Some say,he should speak directly to the black community. My question is, And say what? He speaks to the black community everytime he speaks…As well as the white and hispanic. This country did not get in a 15 trillion dollar debt over night,and won’t come out of one over night. As a President,Mr. Barack Obama has been fighting for the poor and middle class every since he stepped foot in office. It’s up to us citizens to come together and do the things that he requires of us.Those of you with money,opening up business’ for the people to work.Those of you that can further your education,go back to school and do just that.But for God’s sake,stop saying that this President haven’t spoke to the “black community” because he speaks to all people when he speaks. If you don’t go back to school,you won’t have the education. Those of you with money, if you don’t create jobs, you won’t have any, and that goes for every race in America.
President Obama, is Scotch-Irish black. He knew what he was getting into, and what to expect from some racist whites. Not all whites are racist, and remember; he is the President, because whites voted for him (and he is half-white). We need to spend less time talking about white racism, and to spend more time talking about black-on-black crime and black inertia-that is our real problem, not to overlook magic thinking. Our own people, are doing far worse to their own, and very little to help themselves in deference to a few caricatures and racist slogans.
I have been listening to Minister Farrakhan for over fourty years and have never heard him bash anyone for being Christian or Jew.
Here’s a video with one of the most reasonable explanations for racism, even if you don’t agree with all of Rand’s philosophies.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdeI9NfbfT8 Ayn Rand on Racism
Rand identifies the true nature of racism. http://www.LibertyPen.com
listen negros, do your homework and see the facts of 4 years of his leadership. you dont need Louis to support his choice for pres.. think for yourselves. OK he’s black so you all will vote for obama..What did you get? Leaders in the black community like Al, Jesse, Louis what a joke. your all sheep and your leaders are very poor choices. oh by the way make sure you burn down your town if George Z is not convicted.
i agree with” jitu”", what happened to all that money, that the Nation collected over the years: five year programs, seven year programs, million man marches, ten year aniversary marches, etc.
Man , I really thought the nation was going to do something, besides taik. Then, regretabily, we found that,besides that farm the brother from A&T University is building, they were only “TALKING”. Speaking of not keeping your word! OR DID THEY REALLY TRY? BRO. RAP
As the Prophet Marcus Garvey said, the Black man will never know himself until his back is against the wall..
@ Tameka & Tonia, well said, I keep saying over and over, let Romney get into office and we shall see. If we think times are bad right now let him win. PLEASE, PLEASE don’t get it twisted. We don’t have to love or even like OBAMA but we must vote. Not voting would be far worse than voting for the wrong candidate. IJS
I believe that if we committed more of our energy to action rather than criticizing and bashing President Barack Obama, we could accomplish a lot more. The same methods of devide and conquer are happening to us now as it has been for the last 400 years. Remember the willie lynch theory, I can show you slave maSTERS HOW TO CONTROL YOUR SLAVES FOR THE NEXT 400 YEARS OR LONGER!!! fIRST KEEP THEM DEVIDED BY SPLITTING UP THE FAMILY, SELLING THE THE SON, DAUGHTER, MOTHER AND FATHER TO DIFFERENT PLANTATIONS Always put a divisive spirit amongst them by putting the smart against the ones not so smart, the light skinned against the darked skinned, the field slave against the house slave etc… you get the picture. We are actually beion lynched right now in a sophisticated way and don’t know it. So let us get out and support President Barack Obama for re-election in the 2012 presidential election. We will not succumb to those old tactics and tricks as we did in the past.
Hearing Minister Farakhan preach is an enduring experience only exceeded by his mentors: The Hon. Elijah Mohammed & Malcom X. I remember these men and their times well…and Jim-Crow, Lynching & Burning of Blacks, mostly “Men,” was a National Disgrace—but not in Chicago; it is NOW—and its us! Killing ourselves! Weekend & Week-out! Let Min. Farakhan dwell-on-this-issue; home-fronts are sanctified 1st. As for Mr. Obama: he is a Muslim/Christian/Socialist-Democrat/Communist/Palistinian simpathyzer, who ordered Bin-Ladin shot without trial! The one thing we know Mr. Obama is not, is a Capitalist! If he were, white americans would be kissing-his-feet…”and I don’t mean Feet!” Whites put Mr. Obama in the “White House,” and Whites will remove him through the same “Electoral-College” process that put him in. Your vote my People, is only “The Popular Vote! This is what your “Leaders” won’t explain to you…Maybe they do not understand fully, themselves. I know Rev. Jackson knows…but he’s not giving any Civic Lessons, its not in his best interest…”Keep-Hope-Alive!”
Minister Farakhan is absolutely right in all of my yrs i have not seen so much disrespect for the President, but lets B clear i do not agree with the President on all of his policies either but there is a way to disagree with out being disrespectful WAKE UP AMERICA he is our President LIKE IT R NOT

Kudos to Farrakhan. I am neither Muslim nor Christian but I certainly respect Farrakhan much more than the many pimp preachers exploiting the ignorance of the black masses.
Oh I don’t know, I believe Farrakhan is one of the biggest haters on the plant. If he were in any other country, he would have disappeared 30 years ago.
Speaking of pimps, wonder why Muslims from the middle east who now live here don’t seem to care for him.
Does Dr.Boyce Watkins believe that we can read and think. He is a sorry excuse for misleading people who cannot think. I for one am not going along with his little plow to keep us posting so that he can make advertisement money?
I am not posting to this site or reading it from this day forward. He needs to be punished.
…WE must ALWAYS keep the enemy near & make them accounttable…I so agree BOYCE needs to be punished ! He continues to use OBAMA bashing headlines to get advertisment from ALL backers who HATE our PRESIDENT …I seen an AD saying ” DON’T RE-NIG ” by one of his advertissers on another site ! Remember people… Obama can make ALL the changes he wants in this next term…He has made history in so many ways in his first term…NOT VOTING FOR OBAMA MEANS YOU VOTED FOR ROMNEY !!!
My goodness! I got too upset. Let me correct the above post.
Dr. Watkins do not believe we can read or think. What he’s doing to get advertisement to this site is deplorable. Every human being should be held accountable, and so should Watkins. I don’t know if he believes all of that ‘crab’ stuff he writes about the President or not. But, if he has half the sense he thinks he has, he should know that his writings will make many unthinking blacks sit the day out in November. Then where does that get up? President Mitt Romney, another white president just like all the other white president–other than Lyndon Johnson–who has us in the position we are in now. I don’t need to go into our self-inflicted wounds to clarify the causes of disenfranchisement by the white establishment
Racial hatered will always be an issue until White folks stand-up,
protest and tell politicians they should turn this around. Only white folks can stop what they started.

From the very beginning – the President has been completely disrespected like no other – this new republician movement has done everything possible to undermine his efforts to work with all in Congress – they even agreed on some issues and now blame him for all the issues, even their own ideas – my heart breaks for President Obama and his family that this kind of treatment is still tolerated by the American people – I pray and hope that November will prove money doesn’t and can’t buy everything and that the people of this country stand for what’s right – please people get out and vote! It’s a scary time in America, God bless us all….
I just listened to a video that the United States is going to do something it hasnt done since 1901. And AMericans thin that these changes are not going to happen. But Obama has so much power behind him that he may be a 3x president. If not one of his proxys will. WOW we will C 2016! But more than likely it willbe Obama!
