President Obama Says If There Is a Low Turnout For Black Voters "It Will Be An Insult To My Legacy "

[desjardins]

I knew the same in 08' when I was 14. Never cared for him then and never donated to him. Only politician I EVER donated to was Bernard Sanders. I did vote for Barack in 2012 just because

i feel you. i was caught up in the symbolic shyt like 99% of black people until i heard cornell west and tavis smiley break down how obama wasn't actually doing shyt for black people and realized i couldn't refute a single thing they were saying. since then it's been years observing he continually ignore our issues, talk down to us, and push us towards shyt that won't benefit us long term
i use to say i want him out of office just so black democrats will start holding the president accountable again but it looks like the democrats already have a strategy to keep us submissive with the new republican boogeyman, Trump

Hope this naive sister still has employment. Black people have suffered economically under Obama and have experienced an assault on our rights being murdered in the street by police during his presidency. This poor sister literally thought she was getting black jesus

EXACTLY breh

 

[Koba St]

Funny how he's suddenly remembered there's a black community after ignoring it for 8yrs.

As for this black caucus, I would love it if someone told me what exactly is it they that do.

 

[Dameon Farrow]

People still salty that Bernie, who never had a chance, didn't make the ticket. Come on, fellas.

Yeah the choices suck but only two likely outcomes can go down like it or not. And one is better than the other regardless of how you feel.

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

Never said both sides were the same just they are both terrible and unacceptable for me to vote for either party both are corrupt corporatist parties and are run by lobbyist. For some reason whenever I say something outside of the normal on here I noticed that people like to put words in my mouth lol. As for Trump i dont want him as president but im tired of the compromise bullshyt so fukk settling the dems dont have my blind loyalty anymore they will have to earn it.

We're living in a country of over 300m. Compromise is the law of the land unless we make a titanic shift to the left, and that's not going to happen as long as people continue to adopt this attitude. People just want to sit on the sidelines and expect everything to fall into place for them instead of putting in the work to change things for the better.

So, I'm supporting Trump when I said I support 3rd parties CTR.org peeps

You're as transparent as you're ignorant. It's obvious you still support Trump and are only using 3rd parties as a smokescreen. Keep droning on about CTR, too. It's the only thing you can do because you sure as hell aren't capable of posting anything logical or well-reasoned.

 

[Red Shield]

Say that when economy goes to sh*t, diplomatic relations goes to sh*t, we get bombed by terrorist cells, and the murder rate quadruples.

Trump being president is a timebomb waiting to happen.

All of that shyt is happening regardless as to who gets elected. The usa is an empire in final decline.


this election isn't some crossroads election. This election is a choice between how fast you want the usa to fall off.

 

[BushidoBrown]

Not you the other guy. I was responding to you telling you that he was a shill

lol oh aight, i feel u
but lets be honest, its arguably irresponsible for african americans to place time/energy/faith in this trump cat. hes full of skin deep catch phrases i dont believe he has any real plans, especially when it comes to promoting the advancement of african americans socially economically or otherwise

he caught 5 seconds of my attention when he said 'what do you have to lose' and immediately lost it when he had nothing of substance to follow it up with.

he wants my support, tell me what i have to GAIN by siding with him.
lay out specific plans, programs, etc. even if he doesnt follow through with any of it at least it would garner him some level of consideration in the short term
all these politiCACs

For this election, that comes to the same thing. This isn't a new political tactic.

Well im no longer ok with this we only have one competent candidate lol. Thats some total bullshyt Trump is not even in consideration so I will just probably write in Bernie or vote Stein.

 

[KidJSoul]

This isn't Hilary vs Romney or something.

This is fukking Trump.

Trump.

I understand that when people are desperate, we want to get away from the pain (underwhelming democratic leadership), but be realistic. Trump is gonna fukk up our shyt to the next power.

It sucks having to put up with a candidate that won't really be much better than Obama, but again, no matter how much it sucks, don't fool yourselves into thinking you can play around with Trump.

 

[Mowgli]

Personal insult

Obviously one candidate is far worse then the other but im off that shyt we lived through bush.

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

He's been an insult to his own legacy.

Bush was a bland Republican. Trump is a white nationalist of the David Duke variety. A comparison like that underestimates Trump.
