Obama has sent out his lemmings all over America to tell the black community, now, how much he has done for them. Of couse, he, as usual, doesn't realize that they have a deep disappointment over Obama’s failure to enact the kind of progressive agenda they feel they were promised in 2008.
So, in his own prevaricating style, he has outlined what great things he has done like Obamacare: unemployment compensation that has increased the national debt, and public education over hauls and encouraging minority entrepreneurship. The US test scores are the lowest they have been for a long time, and no one can start a new business with all the regulations that squash entrepreneurship.
None of these have helped the black community, period. He is just laying these falsehoods out there believing that the blacks will believe without evaluating the facts.
The message, being conveyed by his campaign workers and volunteers dispatched to beauty and barber shops, church halls and neighborhoods is simple: The president has improved the lives of everyday African-Americans, and that change has to be protected at the polls next year. “Just vote for me, and I will look out for you." He honestly believes that the blacks are stupid. He has no intention of changing his policies. He only uses this ploy to be re-elected. Some blacks are now starting to understand the true character of this man.
Obama made a point at last month’s day-long summit at the White House, telling participants that his legislative “done” list has kept “millions of folks out of poverty,” improved the lives of millions more and made significant investments in the future of black communities. OMG, improved the lives of millions??? This has to be the greatest over-exaggerations ever!!
He added a touch of the personal, noting that as African-Americans, “we know tough times. And what we also know, though, is that if we are persistent, if we are unified and we remain hopeful, then we’ll get through these tough times and better days lie ahead.”
Here's the word again,"Hope."You know full well what he is really thinking here:"BTW, I'll think of you as I vacation once again on your dime in Hawaii!!”
Obama and his campaign folks know that it’ll be tough to match the enthusiasm and passion the black community felt for Obama three years ago, when 2 million more black voters than ever before surged to the polls, sensing history was about to be made. Black turnout likely will play a crucial role in the president’s reelection bid. He knows this and that is why he is in full campaign mode of spin and lies.
“I don’t know if you’re going to get the heightened turnout,” said Newark, N.J., Mayor Cory Booker, an Obama ally. “I think it’s going to be the challenge. In 2008, we had tens of thousands of new voters. Only a percentage of them have kept voting in [off-year elections]. I don’t know if that percentage will bump back up” to the record-high level of participation.
If the blacks realize what he has done to America over the last 3 years and really comprehend his true intentions to degrade the country financially as well as socially, he won't stand a chance to be #45.
