"The Obama presidency was a disaster for middle-class wealth in the United States. Between 2007 and 2016, the average wealth of the bottom 99 percent dropped by $4,500. Over the same period, the average wealth of the top 1 percent rose by $4.9 million.
This drop hit the housing wealth of African Americans particularly hard. Outside of home equity, black wealth recovered its 2007 level by 2016. But average black home equity was still $16,700 lower.
Much of this decline, we will argue, can be laid at the feet of President Obama. His housing policies led directly to millions of families losing their homes. What’s more, Obama had the power — money, legislative tools, and legal leverage — to sharply ameliorate the foreclosure crisis.
He chose not to use it."

Amazing. A left wing David Duke.
"From the beginning, he said, he saw Obama as someone he could model himself after.
“I have four different kids with three mothers. ... I looked at this president, and there was no drama, no mistresses. Just beautiful kids, and a steady wife.”
The president gave him the confidence to quit his lucrative career as a graphic designer to be a full-time artist: He went from earning $130,000 a year to, one year, as little as $22,000.
Now, while he’s proud of his decision and wouldn't change it, he can’t afford health insurance and isn’t sure he'll ever buy a house.
As for what the president was able to accomplish, Williams credits him with halting the financial crisis and projecting American credibility to the rest of the world.
But when it came to addressing police shootings of blacks at home, he said, America’s first black president seemed aloof.
“He was too eloquent, too cool, too passive,” Williams said. “I just can't give him a good grade in terms of civil rights for black people. We didn’t get anything, really.”

59 and 57% final Gallup and aggregate approval rating
90 % approval rating with Black Americans and around the same% voted for him twice
And got nothing in return. I think Trump is going to change that.
Most historical rankings rank him as a top 10 President as well
A President and party sides with and solicits support from white supremacists will never get support from minorities.Of course minorities also know trump himself is a racist piece of shit as well.
I was under the impression Bone had made it quite clear who the real racist here is...
