I understand, but it's one think to think about and it's one thing to experience. I'm don't think Obama is a c00n or anything like that but there are times where not having that experience has hamstrung him in regards to the way he has handled race as President.
Obama is simply a black elitist,and depending on where you stand,some people would say being a black elitist is inherehently some c00ning involved. Ironically Henry Louis Gates is also a black elitist,and probably only went at that cop like that because he considered the cop "the help" and he was a special elite negro. The devils in the details,and Obama is basically telling you that Henry Louis Gates is a jerk,and from what I've heard and read about the man I could see that being the case. Now even in the ranks of black elitist like Obama and Gates. You will have black elitist like Obama who think somebody like Henry Louis Gates is too confrontational,and talks too much about race. So even in that circle there are different ideologies. During the Reconstruction Era,the war of all these different ideologies were more out in the open and debated. Which allowed you to get a real window into the minds of people who think like Obama and a Louis Gates. Black elitist are "educated",wealthier blacks who have identified themselves as magical,who now think poor uneducated black people are holding them down,and make them(blacks) look bad. They can either be of the mindset that they want to encourage black people to lift ourselves up by our bootstraps like they did,and just be agreeable and not worry about race. Or they can be more on the Hitler side of the game where they want no associating with poor under educated blacks,and wish they didn't exist because they are embarrased by them,or want to remain the lone magical negroes. I do think Obama falls in line more with the first description. But give it time,these black elitist typically become full blown Europeans.
Funny thing is that the coli is 90% black elitist who look down on poor/under educated blacks. They are just in that more confrontational category like Henry Louis Gates,and not afraid to talk race. But when they talk about black people,know they are not talking about all blacks. They are talking about "The talented tenth". Now is that c00ning? or ideology that the educated need to leave the rest behind and let the dead bury the dead.
I have a similar mindframe,except I don't base the "dead" on whos wealthy,or who has degrees from the white man

. But I personally have no real issue with Obama,any more than I have with your typical coli poster who shares some of the same ideologies in a different ,slightly less agreeable package.
