I'm guessing that you aren't from the Northeast. The actions of Black Democratic Party politicians are even more disgusting because they prey on their own people. Check out Newark, NJ sometime. <br><br>Further, I would say that you are naive, not Barack Obama. He's not fresh off the farm. He's a very skilled and capable politician who knows exactly who he serves. Way to parrot a narrative, though. How are Black Democrats NOT dangerous hustlers?

Further, I would say that you are naive, not Barack Obama. He's not fresh off the farm. He's a very skilled and capable politician who knows exactly who he serves. Way to parrot a narrative, though.

I remember the day I heard Obama wasn't rescinding the warrantless wiretapping activity by the government. That was the end of 'change' for me and my expectations were firmly grounded.

Does he shuck and jive while hustling or just sing “Mammy” while tap dancing?

In fact, I'm sure thousands if not millions of people are disappointed with Obama's presidency. It has nothing to do with his gangsta cred and everything to do with his entire platform of “change” falling apart.

He was a naive, inexperienced politician who thought he could jump in and fix everything. Only he has found out that it isn't that easy.

Even the president has people to answer to and it isn't the people who elected him.
