EPIC.

[viewtiful_alan]

Barack Obama does not care about black people.

[Shifty Prophet]

You must spread some more reputation before giving it to Barack Obama again.

[Danny]

the president of sass

[static-harmony]

[Pax Americana]

Ha. Cool.

[infinitemusic]

I don't understand why the president would be commenting on Kanye West.

[terriblecanyons]

Because, he's hip with the cool crowd.

[amerikangod]

Because an interviewer asked him a question about it off the record.

thats what Marcus Garvey said.

 

"There was a state of disorganization [after the Civil War] and in that state certain things happened just by mere chance.. and in the chance dozens of black men became Senators, State Senators and Congressmen, and opened the eyes of the nation of the possibility of the black man governing the white man.. the possibility of the black man making laws to govern the white man in these Unites States.. The possibility drove them to madness.. and a determination was arrived that never again would it be possible for a race of slaves to govern a race of masters within these bounds.."

"So for us to encourage the idea that one of these days some Negro will be the Attorney General of the United States.. will be Vice-President.. is only to encourage a vain hope that will take you from here to eternity without ever being realized.. "

"Although they have not said as much to you, that is how they feel over the question.. The bone of contention is not because you are black, but because they believe that they are entitled to all the benefits that American can give because they built up America to suit themselves and whatsoever we have done to build up America we did it as slaves.."

Garvey implied that blacks coming into political power was an accident of a power vacuum, one which the establishment quickly filled and replaced.. He also implied that because of this deep structure of racism, if a black person ever took office, he would not be able to represent black interests because the structure is "built up.. to suit themselves.."

He believed that because the establishment would never allow the possibility of former slaves to govern over former masters, that any black person in power is merely a puppet to the system, whose hands are tied by the super-structure..

So THAT's what our president sounds like. Cool! I've been wondering for a while.

Hopefully, this causes that King Khanye guy to kill himself or retire or something.

[FreshChops]

I wonder if he would have said that if he was at a BET event, or being interviewed for Vibe magazine? Remember, he's a politician, he makes an art-form out of telling people what they want to hear. Politicians = Chameleons (and f*** 'em all)
