As a Black Man…
This man has endured more disrespect in less time than any black man ever.
This is the kind of thing you would hear the older folks speaking about when we were growing up, how this so called ‘equality thing’ was going to screw up the way things were back when they used to know their place. I now understand what they were talking about, the total unmitigated gall of a black man thinking he has the right to speak to my child without asking my permission just because some bleeding hearts felt the system owed ‘those’ folks something because of slavery, which by the way, my folks had nothing to do with. Now this fool thinks he all of a sudden has the right to indoctrinate my kids with some black mumble jumble about supporting his polices because he’s President and he says so. No way, will I have some fool ass boy from the big city going to be feeding my child with the notion of being uppity to his parents by showing them up with more education than they have, not in my lifetime! I just can’t believe the audacity of this black man to think that kind of behavior would be acceptable in America where good folks have to live.
I mean really, just look with what us good folks have had to put up with over the last year or two since the ‘Audacity of Hope’ has taken over in this good land of ours. We watch him go through the primaries with no respect for a perfectly good white woman we were willing to let compete for the spot against a good fighting all American Hero Senator John McCain. But no, this uppity fool actually beats Hillary and takes the old man down with no respect for him being a white man or nothing. So we have to put up with a black man in the White House without him even proving he is a citizen in there like he was a regular guy or something. Everyone knows his daddy comes from the country of Africa and that automatically makes him not American. We should not have to be punished as a country just because some fool ass young Kansas white girl was sowing her oats in the Peace Corps with the local natives.
Then, the black fool gets in there and takes over auto and banking trying to force them to become part of a worldwide socialist order. Now he thinks he can force a total national takeover of the Health Insurance business as well and make us put our parents down like they were pets or something. Can you just imagine where we are going to wind up as a country with a man like him thinking he has the right to make decisions to tell us when our elderly should die or not. That alone should be grounds to have him removed if the fact he won’t prove he has an American birth certificate isn’t. But I think this going after our kids and using the government to do so has got to be the last straw, we have got to do something about this man acting like he is really running things in this country! I mean, I’ll just be damned!
President Barack Obama’s election to the highest office in the land warmed my heart in a way that will never be the same when it comes to how I, as a black man, feel about this country. I suspect we will never really fully appreciate just how significant an accomplishment it was for this country and yet, there are many in a state of shock that it has come to be. As a black man as proud of America as I am for achieving his election into the office of the Presidency, I know the conversation above is going on in various kitchens and living rooms and dens across this great land of ours. I knew as a black man if he won, and as long as he survives, this would be happening, it would be painful at times, but it is good and it is needed. As a black man, I don’t know where this is going to end as we are all going through this ride together. There are some who don’t want to be on this train of progress as all of mankind is currently participating in one way or another, some as participants, others as observers. As a black man, I am watching someone very important in my experience as a human being; thought of, spoken about in way so derogatory you’d think he was a murderer rapist of some sadistic nature. We have citizens crying for losing their country, and wishing this never happened to this grand ‘Ole Land of Ours’. Barack Obama, living as a black man who as a politician, truly appears to want the very best for all of us for a change. As a black man I watch this thinking, this must be killing his wife and kids who just know him as someone dear to them, and see him assaulted daily in households all across America in the very same manner and mindset above, not because he is President of United States, or even a politician of ill repute, but this is just how it is in America today as a black man.
