Is Obama failing because he is black?
    #9988284 - 03/17/09 12:30 PM (15 years, 14 days ago)

It seems like a lot of blacks these days are failures, just look at the general inner-city population.  Many are happy with living like animals, and make little or no effort to take their kids out of such a hostile environment.  Obama doesn't come from a family of former slaves, so it is unlikely that his genes are conditioned the same way as most blacks.  However, in such a short time he has managed to squander billions if not trillions of dollars in wealth which has been hard earned by the American taxpayer.  What are we to take from this?  White presidents, up until now, have been loyal to the interests of the American taxpayer (With the possible exception of FDR and Jimmy Carter).  We get one black in office and soon as you can say "the tax man cometh" he's driving America into the ground.  Is this a black conspiracy, or are blacks just natural failures?

Uh nooo...

He's failing because he's a liberal with a socialist agenda.

Wow man, that's pretty racist actually.

Obama isn't failing because he's black, he's failing because he's been promoted far past his level of competence. There are plenty of very VERY competent black people out there, it's just that Obama isn't one of them.

It is however reasonable to propose that the reason he was promoted so far past his level of competence is that he is black, but that's a different conversation.

Wow, you're extremely racist. Score one for racists on the shroomery I guess? It's been what less than 2 months since he's been sworn in and you're already deciding if he's a failure? Whatever, guess I shouldn't have been looking for my political discourse to come from the shroomery in the first place.

Well, since this is my thread I think its fair to ask the question, since you brought it up.

Is Obama's presidency essentially based on white guilt?  That would explain a lot, like the fact that he seems to be riding by the seat of his pants, speaking in plattitudes, and generally being vague about his policies.  Seems like he's just another typical black, working within the framework of "whitey screwed me" while not actually cultivating an understanding of his situation.

I've known he was an Affirmative Action hire for over a year.  Undistinguished at Columbia, undistinguished at Harvard, undistinguished as a professor, state senator, US Senator, never managed anything at all anywhere.  A complete and total empty suit.  Phred is absolutely right that there are plenty of qualified blacks out there but the idiot brigade elected one on cuteness.  So now we have a black Olsen twin as President.  Oh joy.

I disagree that he's acting like a typical black. He is instead acting like a typical callow Libbie who has no conception how the real world works. There is nothing especially "black" about his points of view - most of them are 100% party line Leftie/Libbie doctrine.

I  totally agree, Obama was just the prettiest pig in the patch.  I mean, it was pretty much inevitable that we'd elect one eventually, right?

Well, he did spend twenty+ years at the Rev Wright's Church of Whitey Sucks.  He also managed to parlay a bunch of class envy bullshit into winning among women, minorities and retards youth voters, the typical "I feel your pain" demographic.  The good news is that he ran against the party of a very unpopular incumbent, outspent his opponent by huge amounts, had almost the entire media establishment giving campaign contributions of suck jobs and still came nowhere near the numbers one would expect from all that.  Maybe next time the "feeling your pain" retards won't be quite so willing to feel the pain.

Yeah but he's even giving liberals a bad name, Bill Clinton at least had priorities, this black is just letting the chickens out of the coup, so to speak.

I agree with all of the above.  I'm still giving him the full 100 days to learn the ropes, but I don't expect much from the empty suit.  He is doing exceedingly well at meeting my expectations of what we would get... unfortunately.

Skin color has nothing to do with it.

I would say that giving him a grace period is very graceful of you, but I disagree that his skin color has n nothing to do with how he makes his actions.  I mean, come on, he's black, it must have affected who he is.

It's all sour grapes from the neo-cons.  They are still really smarting from the elections.

Obama was elected because he actually had ideas, I know it sounds simple, but his opponents lacked the ability to hack up anything but complete bullshit in terms of solving real world problems we have now. The reason I voted for Obama was because he seemed on top of his shit, I read the pdf he released on open government (another thing I like about Obama, he understands technology), it outlined how governmental spending would be checkable by society, how reports on spending errors could be filed by the population, a government more truly for the people and by the people. I elected him because I don't understand why we still have war, and now we have a deadline, something nobody wanted put forward in the bush years. I also voted for him because it seemed like the only real chance we had at ending the prohibition of marijuana. Now it's starting to look like that might actually be possible.
Just taking a look at the whitehouse.gov website makes me glad he was elected, imagine what it'd be if old foges mccain were elected. Every executive order is listed on a page dedicated to making the public aware of his decisions as president.
Finally I think I voted for him because when asked if he inhaled, he responded with something along the lines of "I inhaled frequently, that was the point" and as stupid a reason for electing someone as that sounds, I can tell honesty when I see it.
