But you don't want to make him throw the entire black community under the truck, imo- that's not way to cure this problem.

No, I want him to turn his back on the people who scream and taunt and make the divisions worse through their self-indulgent antics.

Then the folks who can genuinely build lasting bridges can get to work.

Barack is between a rock and the hard place.

Imo, he was never black. He is the consummate opportunist. He used the black community to short cut his way to the top.
