There's a whole lot more out there which could be cited relative to Obama's connections to black racists and anti Semites with documentation.
Sure, and there's a lot out there to be cited about how George W. Bush is the literal Antichrist. Does that mean that we should believe it?
Quality, Buz. Think of providing reliable, scholarly, quality sources, not just sources that tell you what you want to hear...
...if and when you actually do manage to provide any sources, that is.

Buz seems to be under the impression that the President is a king who rules by decree.
Over the last 8 years, that has become more and more true.

Re: Bashing Huckabee
quote:
It sounds more like you are bashing black people, speaking about them as if they were inferior beings who need pampering.
Saying that a group is discriminated against and oppressed in no way implies that the people in that group are inferior.
Since when is pushing for equal access to education without reference to a person's skin color "pampering"?
quote:
Is underclass wage issues a uniquely "black issue?" Is education access a uniquely "black" issue? Is an urban development problem a uniquely "black" issue?
No, but those are issues that disproportionately affect black people more than other groups in America.
quote:
Does Huckabee need to cater specifically to a demographic, or is catering to a demographic ultimately devisive, by compartmentalizing people in to quaint little categories.
You mean like he caters to the anti-science, Authoritarian wacko Christians?
