what's with obama and his 'tough love' speeches towards the black community?

[Jesus]

I don't have a problem with him making those speeches if he was actually doing something in particular to help these urban areas.

I know he can't do it all by himself but damn, wasn't he the congressman in Illnois?

You mean he can't do sh!t to help out in Chicago?

I just have a feeling 10 years from now my daughter who is 2 is gonna ask me "so what did the black president do to help black people?" and I'ma basically have the

And you'd be a goddamn fool. What the fukk else do you need him to do? Him being a black president is enough inspiration for blacks in America to step their game up and to hit the books harder. "Damn if a black man can make it as president...maybe I can make it to college." nikkas want him to give every black 40 acres and a mule or something?

 

[Jesus]

nikkas hate hearing about how they are today culturally almost as much as white ppl hate hearing about themselves in the past

Breh, these dudes prolly ain't even black. You know how it is on here. A bunch of white folk, Hispanics, and mixed raced cats claiming to be black. They secretly hate black folk but use the fact they posting on a hip hop board to gain some kind of credibility.

Edit: Peep how a "so called" black person is wondering why we are so critical about slavery. http://www.the-coli.com/higher-learning/26017-why-do-we-always-say-we-were-slaves-400-years.html

How about spurring job creation in the hood and providing companies with tax incentives to relocate in majority poor black neigborhoods so that Boomqueisah doesn't have to get to Mickedees at 6am by catch 3 buses to earn minimum wage in the suburbs?

How about placing a greater emphasis on jobs rather than increasing welfare?

To be fair Obama has been a failure to all races in terms of decreasing unemployment and boosting the economy.

With that said the unemployment rate among African-Americans is higher than the national average, and higher than it was when Bush left office

 

[Economics]

• Through the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA), the Obama administration helped
African-American clients secure more than $929 million in contracts and financing in 2009 and $2.4
billion in 2010, that’s helped businesses create and save jobs for African Americans.
• When President Obama signed the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 it put more capital into the hands
of minority-owned businesses, supporting more than $12 billion in small business lending.
• A 21 Percent share of Jobs Act loans went to minority-owned businesses, according to data from the
Small Business Administration.
• President Obama’s White House Business Council launched a series of Urban Entrepreneurship Forums
aimed at connecting local entrepreneurs to public and private resources to help them expand, grow and
create jobs.


Black people are less then 12% of the electorate. Even if ALL of us voted and ALL of us voted for him he would still need the majority of the white vote to get into office. So how were we the only ones who supported him?

Some of those points are vague with total numbers spent...You have a link I can read to see the direct impact on payrolls of hires from 10' from that monies spent and if they are still employed?

I'm asking because I've worked with the SBA around the time the jobs act was passed and a lot of that was temp measures more than permanent solutions to help the labor market, esp with black folk. Alot of people asked about those programs when they passed but didn't qualify (didn't help that the banks cut their credit lines). Were those apart of the 8(a) certification program? Where minority owned (51%) can qualify for fed contracts. I mean are those statistics included in those? Hook them links up for me breh so I can see the economic impact.

Gotta get dem white votes!

but I dont like the premise of this thread. Obama giving blakc people specifically tough love speeches is GOOD. We need someone to tell us we're fukking up so we acknowledge fukking up. WHy should he say " Black people, we winnin" when theyre not? Why should he sugar coat shyt? He needs ot be like this and be real. Thats why we elected him didnt we?

 

[Born2BKing]

So what ya'll think about the first black prez dealing with a financial crisis we haven't seen in over 50 years?

 

[lachreyatarbabypits]

nikkas hate hearing about how they are today culturally almost as much as white ppl hate hearing about themselves in the past

Because they KNOW they fukking up and dont wanna be reminded of it.

 

[DreadHead P]

stfu nikka, and get a real job.

who the fukk are you? let me guess, you one of them house nikkas that applauded when Obama said black people need to get off welfare, forgettin that there are more white people on welfare that black, miss me wit the rah rah nikka

 

[Real]

who the fukk are you?

Yo daddy nikka.

The lack of support for Obama is pretty sickening from a hip-hop board. I can't even front, this thread could double as a fox news forum. I wish the cats who downing Obama would listen to the pure hatred he faces everyday from cacs.
