Now I understand the forces behind the overall dislike, fear and perhaps hatred of President Obama. First he is a history maker, secondly he has pushed harder for some ideas than some of his predecessors. There are many who say he has not kept any of his promises and is not forceful enough to get things done. On the other side there are those who feel he is not capable. This all comes about at a time when the past 10 years have seen the economy go from bad to worse with a little lift in the middle.The Congress has been the biggest offender in these past 20 or so years and now we really see how anti Black American our Congress (and by extension our nation)is. What we have is a person of color who has made the leap from bystander to action figure (sort of) and in the process provided a catalyst that has galvanized the country’s elitist Congress and related groups into a racist group of idiots who would have burned witches in the 15th century. I wonder how many of our legislators can win relection on their merits and accomplishments with the hyperbole of political slander and what eventually are found to be wild promises. If the elitist legislature were truly interested in advancing the cause of the country’s economy and interests, we would not have the rest of the world looking at us as truly “ugly Americans”.
