Black activists in chicago react to obama

[Money Trust]

I wish that would happen, but I am not hopeful. Blacks, generally speaking, have traditionally shown themselves to vote for a candidate simply because of race than qualifications (Jesse Jr. Marion Barry, etc)., which is a shame because all they do is continue to vote to keep themselves repressed.

Correct. I have family members who give me a hard time for not being an Obama zealot. Then when you ask them about the issues, and try to figure out which of Obama's policies they're so in favor of, they don't know about any of his policies except that he kept welfare and food stamps going...oh yeah, and can't forget about the so-called "Affordable Healthcare." Those are the only things they know about. I can't tell you how many times I've been called an Uncle Tom, a sellout, a race traitor, etc., simply because I don't support Obama or the democratic party.
