Black Community Can’t Decide Whether To Criticize Obama

I bet Dr. King never thought his vision of judging people not by their skin color, but by the content of their character would be slowed by members of his own community.

The Washington Post has a tedious article about the strong divisions within the black community over whether it’s okay to criticize Barack Obama. More moderate blacks who don’t obsess over their skin color and that of the president’s fear being called an “Uncle Tom” for trying to “bring a brother down” as the WaPo puts it.

Barack Obama is now the President Of The United States, not the President of black people. He’s everyone’s president and should be judged according to how he governs and whether the country is better after his presidency than it was before it.

This obsession about skin color continues to come from the black community and pretty much only from the black community. Whether it’s blacks in Oakland coming out in mass to support a quadruple cop killer and rapist who was “forced” into a life of crime, or racist blacks in Chicago using the race card to get another black in Obama’s old senate seat even if he’s corrupt.

Blacks should let the rest of us know when they’re ready to move past race and we’ll gladly come along.

The noose was found in a building at Columbia’s Teachers College and was apparently placed on the 44-year-old professor’s office door sometime before 9 a.m. ET Tuesday.
