#2 To you OldSpook, the blinders have been the Millenials and fellow travelers fashion accessory for seven years and will continue for some time to come...This article is an abberation in MSM, will likely be recanted as soon as the "fire fighters" from the WH find J.R. He won't be a Fleming for long, likely Flaming; a flaming has been in Chicago politics.

#7 Joe Watkins, the founder of V.O.T.E. (Voices of the Ex-Offender), said Obama has been "more hurtful to the black race than he has been helpful." He claimed some people will accept his failures due to "symbolic" reasons relating to the color of his skin. "But those of us at the bottom of the ladder don't accept that," he added.

Yet 95% of the Community will keep voting for him. If it's not because he's delivered jobs and hope, then why? Another round of chants of Trayvon, Trayvon, will ease those pains. Maybe a pep talk from the oppressed millionaire Oprah will help?
