| Barack Obama Blames Lousy Legacy On White Southerners (Video) |
| 2016-12-09 |
 [SP] In an interview aired Wednesday on CNN, President Obama described how he thinks people may view him differently than other presidents because of his race."I think there’s a reason attitudes about my presidency among whites in northern states are very different from whites in southern states," Obama told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria. |

| #13 I'm a white southerner, and not a David Duke supporter - in fact, I had the privilege of voting against him in an election for governor some years ago - successfully. (Bumper sticker on my truck read 'Vote for the crook, it's important.) |

| #10 I think the two problems Barack had were (a) he believed his own popularity had anything to do with his policies (b) he believed the leftist nonsense of a permanent Democrat majority so he governed that way and set up MASSIVE losses for his party at nearly every election. |

| #9 The Won probably believed his own BS, that he was a 'Great Leader" (TM). He now sees that he has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. He cannot admit that he is the problem. Therefore racism, etc. Fun to watch. |

| #8 One would think he could've built a nice legacy with the 62 million followers he had when elected, without the deplorables. But he didn't think he needed those, ("I won; get over it)and now he complains he did not win over those he kissed off anyway? [head spins] Somebody please help me understand! |

| #5 He faced racism while in office? It's the other side of the coin Mr. President. It was racism that put you in office. |

| #4 Yep, the arrogant racist that is Obama has a short memory - Florida, North Carolina, Virginia voted for his socialist snake oil chicanery... His legacy, the thing that he left us, the insurance debacle where my health insurance premium jumped 104% next month, the ISIS caliphate... is why he is a proven a lousy failure. |

| #2 ...they were all disloyal. I tried to run the ship properly, by the book, but they fought me at every turn. Send the man some bearings. |

| #1 White Southerners, garden variety republicans, wikileaks, far-right, radical-right, racists, Barrett-Jackson auctions, haters, birthers, Russian hackers, Lingonberries, the stock market, David Duke supporters, global warming deniers, frackers, NRA members, KKK members, baskets of irredeamable deplorables, bible and gun totters, ultraconservative, fly-over people, blimpish, diehards, reactionaries, traditionalists, conventional, unprogressives, religious zealots, coal miners, sons and daughters of the confederacy, FRAM oil filters, Antiques Road Show, Canadian Hockey League, clueless policemen, NASCAR, the elderly, cable news viewers.... All of these (and more) are to blame. |
