What did he say wrong?
The truth.
The truth about race is not an excuse for failure
Obama Says Racial Animus Blunts Approval, New Yorker Reports - Bloomberg
What a. Fucking pathetic scumbag
Theres no doubt that theres some folks who just really dislike me because they dont like the idea of a black president, Obama said
Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because Im a black president,
bullshit, 15% of the govt was shut down by obama, the republicans in the house do not have the power or authority to shut down any govt functions.
Obama shut monuments to make the 15% shut down as painful as possible, after refusing to try to find a compromise solution to the budget stalemate.
It took Ryan and Murray to finally do what obama was incapable of doing.
Worst president in history is too mild.
You are truly ignorant as to how our government functions. For your edification, it requires public funding, of which, the Congress controls the spending budgets. When they [Congress] failed to pass a continuing resolution, that caused the shutdown. So for you to claim the Republican-led House, which is where ALL spending bills originate, did not have "the power or authority" to shutdown the government, you don't actually make that point. All you do is demonstrate abject ignorance of the U.S. Constitution and American civics.
LOL, coming from someone who knows nothing of either. All of 18% of the government was shut down. You know what Obama did? HE shut everything else down. By himself.
Unemployment among the Black community is almost double the statistics thrown out by Barry's boys. What has he done about it besides offer them more handouts?

I'm just pointing out that westwall is an imbecile who doesn't know the difference between the sequester and monument closure, even though that was the reason westwall cited for disparaging Obama.Ummm, the sequester had nothing to do with the monument closures. Just sayin'.
No it didn't. He did. He made a pinprick out to be a mortal wound.
As far as the monument closure, it was Republicans who forced the shutdown. Y'all reap what ye sow.

Anyone who doubts that there are people in the country who disapprove of Obama simply because he is black, is completely out of touch with reality.
That being said, he's been a lackluster President regardless of his race.
Isn't he 1/2 black & 1/2 white??
After a president is elected their race or religion diminishes in importance compared their actions. We judge candidates on their beliefs, race, religion, associations, wealth, and political hype because we don't know what kind of president they will be. However, once we elect a president, it's primarily his actions that determine what we think about him.Theres no doubt that theres some folks who just really dislike me because they dont like the idea of a black president, Obama said

When JFK ran for president, his religion was a big factor in what people thought about him. After he was elected, it was what he said and did that determined his popularity. Much the same is true with Obama. Of course there will always be people whose judgement is based on the skin color, religion, or ethnicity.
Obama's handling of the economy, healthcare legislation, the war, and his proposals are responsible for most of his positive or negative approval, not his skin color.

Yet it was the Republicans who insisted on shutting down the government unless Democrats caved in on their signature legislation. Since that amounted to nothing less than extortion, they were the ones who were blamed for the shutdown. And whatever the reason being for blaming Republicans more than Democrat, every single scientific poll taken, including polls by rightwing organizations like Fox and the Wall Street Journal, indicated that Republicans were to blame for the shutdown.I'm just pointing out that westwall is an imbecile who doesn't know the difference between the sequester and monument closure, even though that was the reason westwall cited for disparaging Obama.No it didn't.

Republicans did not, and do not, have the ability to force a shutdown all on their own. Only non thinking, partisan hacks believe that one side of a debate can create an impass.
It takes two to tango. It takes two differing opinions to have an argument, and it takes two sides of a political debate to shut down a government. It only takes one incomptetent boob to shut down open air monuments for the purpose of making a political statement.
