I love how all these pundits and pollsters are declaring that race relations are worse than they have ever been in America under Barack Obama. As if Barack Obama got in the White House and declared that it's open season on whitey.
White folks like to call Obama a divider, but it's hard to divide what has already been split into little pieces.
I suspect that race relations (publicly) might have gotten worse under Barack Obama because angry "color aroused" white people couldn't hold in their racism any longer. And, truth be told, clueless black people thought that having one of their own in the White House would suddenly make racists view them in a different light.
White people who voted for Barack Obama out of some sense of racial absolution for past sins are disappointed that he did not deliver. He did not make them feel any different because racism has actually gotten worse. A stark and sad reminder to them that the shadow of ignorance and bigotry that has long hovered over their beloved country is not going anywhere anytime soon.
Barack Obama, this highly educated and "articulate" politician, was, in the words of Katt Williams, "Nigger light". Finally, a black man white folks could trust with the keys and wrap their arms around.
At least this is what they thought. Unfortunately there were too many white folks who could only see that a black man was driving, and they did not want to be in the back seat. It is why early on in his presidency you had the opposition party declaring that they were dedicated to making sure that his presidency failed.
So yes, America's racial wounds were reopened with the election of Barack Obama. But the Band- Aid that was covering it was not really healing anything; it was just covering it up. Barack Obama becoming president just forced us to tear it off. Sadly, what we are seeing now is not pretty.
'"We are more racially fractured and fragmented,' said James Peterson, director of Africana Studies at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania.
'It has exposed more wounds than it has healed,' he said of Obama's election. 'It has exposed how racist our society still is."'
I didn't need some "Africana studies" professor from one of America's finer schools to tell me that. That's what my eyes are for.

Yeah, pretty much.
Maybe the America that elected Obama twice is tired of being divided by race/gender/ethnicity, lied to, deceived, spied on, audited, and having their lives micromanaged.
Nah, they're just rayciss.
There's ripping off a band-aid, then there's a pack of Mitch McConnell snarling turtles and dogs fang bared going for blood.
Or, a pathetic Mary Landrieu too freaking stupid to be a Democrat, much less a woman and campaign with the President.
At a guess, history will not wait as long to appreciate President Obama as it did Pres. Carter.
@9:37: You are right, Obama will be appreciated as the same kind of way as Carter is.
Shocking. Field blames YT for the fact that race relations have gotten worse under Obama.
See, it's never be Obama's fault for anythang.
Before field got drunk off the obama wine- he was the head of "Obamaholics Anonymous".
Now repeat after me: My name is [_________] and I am an Obamaholic.
Now field adds his name in the space.

Isn't dividing the country by race was politically good strategy for the dumbocrats? Keep blacks scared of those rethugs. Why else would dumbocrats say "They’re going to put y’all back in chains" or images of lynchings in political mailings?
Dumbocrats got what they wanted.
Enjoy.

Simple yes or no answer...
Do you honestly believe if white Democratic male Joe Biden or John Edwards would have won the party nomination and general election becoming president, the rehtugs would have supported the same "Obama agenda" because he is white?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No
Field,
Remember when President Obama wanted to have an address to the kids and teachers the first day of school after he was elected?
And The White Folks lost their mind lead by their talkers. All he wanted to do was tell kids to behave in school and listen to their teachers. Shit got so crazy with the KKKrackers who love America more than anyone in the history of love, that they threatened to pull their kids out of school since they where going to allow Obama to speak to their kids.
Yes, the bullshit didn't start there. that's just one example. And of course it was Obama's fault that they reacted that way.
Poor Wesley Racist
How dare those white folks. Demanding to have a say in what was happening in the schools they taxes pay for.
Nevertheless, the Obama youth was strong back then.

Barack Obama is our new President

His daughters, Malia and Sasha
And new dog as well
Barack Obama is our new President

Hell bring us all together
And work hard every day
To make our nation better
And keep our people safe

Who was that infamous socialist leader of Germany who used to have children sing his praise?
Field also,
Whenever there's a case when Blacks are mistreated or killed, we allow Fox News to flip the debate to Black on Black Crime.
O'Reilly is great at this and everyone follows suit. The Eric Gardner case is another example. This was on video. The first day even they (Fox) didn't understand the grand jury decision. The next day it's like they got their talking points and to a man and woman, they shifted the debate to Black on Black Crime.
To kill their argument, all that needs to be said is, the jobs left the Black Community and Oliver North and the CIA brought the drugs in. It is well documented but no one brings this up. We can go into everything else but into order to make a community stable jobs are needed. After that we can go into how to solve the Law Enforcement, Legal, and The Social problems, which is where they (Fox) start their arguments. We need to always begin the debates with economics.
"we allow Fox News"
Who are we to dictate what a news organization does?
Every heard of freedom of the press?
Blacks are now demanding to have power of what can be reported in the news.
God help us.
"Oliver North and the CIA brought the drugs in. It is well documented"
Why hasn't anyone ever been charged?
Oh that's right. There's not any proof.
Black folks are a paranoid bunch.

Wesley, FN has repeatedly pointed out the vast difference in number of viewers between foxnews and abc nightly, cbs nightly, nbc nightly news.

everybody knows fox is a racist orgn. just the kind of viewing that attracts kinky.

Field didn't mention the racism coming out of Sony.
I guess he is checking voter cards to see if there are any Republicans he can point his finger at.
Yo, Black Craker. Since you make such claims, you wanna say exactly, though I know that's against liberal code, exactly how you were discriminated against last week say. I don't think you got ANYTHING. And if you did, jerk, I would be the first to HELP YOU in restitution.

But now she rises as if a queen of the night. Nahle is well pleased.
You proved your point, any post about the President brings out all the white racists in droves. Like cockroaches. It's actually kind of funny to watch them freak out because the country is becoming so much more diverse.
On another note Shelia Jackson Lee was supposed to be on my flight but I guess they ran a bit late tonite. Damn, that would have been cool.
Obama is the 16th best president this country has ever seen.
You obviously don't watch Fox News 12th Man. I learned from one of their bimbos that America is an awesome country and Barack Obama wants to end that awesomeness. He can't handle American awesome.
Just curious...have we discussed this: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2867478/Teenager-burned-alive-road-whispered-final-words-responders-lead-police-killer.html
I don't think she could breathe, either. Where is our buddy Rev. Al?
One reason a lot of people believe race relations are worse is that a lot of things became hyper-racialized as soon as Obama took oath.
Just look at the juxtaposition honestly.
Bush: Accused falsely of draft dodging and being a coward, accused of outright stealing an election, accused of plotting attacks to start a war for oil, called a torturer and murder, hanged in effigy thousands of times, books written and movies made about killing him, etc.
And not one time has anyone seriously attempted to link any of Bush's criticisms to his race. Nobody says it's because he's white.
Obama: Accused of being a foreign-born Muslim, called a liar, heavily protested, threatened with hypothetical impeachment every time he does something, etc.
And every single time he's criticized, hordes of people out there swear that every criticism is racist, given only because he's black.
That's the lead pin here. It's not Obama's fault, of course; it's Obama's apologists who, whether they believe it or lie about it, push the narrative that all white dissent is 100% pure racism.
Why wouldn't race relations be worse? If you are a white person in America who does not like Obama, you have been libeled as a racist, on a public stage, since 2008. And there are plenty of people who believe just that.

If dr. queen is what she claims she is-why is she so angry? Why is she so racist?
Are all black women angry and racist like dr. queen?
I think Barack Obama's winning the Presidency has given many racist thinkers an excuse to be more open about their racism. At least, that's what I've observed. I may have made this comment before; when I lived in VA, my black friends and co-workers said they preferred the open hostility of the southern bigots to the veiled hostility of the more consciously politically correct bigots.Do you find this to be true?
@California Girl:

-----
Why do think the country becoming more diverse is a good thing? Just because 'racists' freak out about it?
How successful are other more 'diverse' societies?
Will a country of several competing nationalities and cultures be a more harmonious one?
Will replacing whites with mestizos and blacks impact the standard of living in America?
Is America the way it is because of the people who make up its population, or is it merely a function of geography? In other words, will the third world people who replace the white population be able to maintain a modern economy that depends on continuous technological innovation and a high-trust/low corruption society?
"And, truth be told, clueless black people thought that having one of their own in the White House would suddenly make racists view them in a different light."
I think Obama's presidency probably has had a positive impact on some white people -- though not a lot of the paranoid Fox News crowd, who are convinced the darkies are out to get them. The fact that he served in this job and the sky didn't fall in will make it easier for other black political figures, including for the next black president (yes, there will be one).
"White people who voted for Barack Obama out of some sense of racial absolution for past sins are disappointed that he did not deliver. He did not make them feel any different because racism has actually gotten worse."
I see no evidence that racism has gotten worse. It's just gotten more obvious. The closet bigots are popping out of their closets.
Take unjustified police shootings of black men. There is absolutely no reason to believe these happened any less frequently before the Obama administration than they do now. But the media and activists are focusing on them, so there is a lot of discussion about what can be done to reduce this problem. (Will anything constructive actually happen? The jury is still out. It's not actually an easy problem to solve.)
Holy Jesus, I couldn't believe she was actually serious. Only John stewart could do her "awesome" quotes justice. Ha!

They have already stated their business model and by all accounts it's pretty successful. Why are u pretending that they are real journalists over there?
"Take unjustified police shootings of black men. There is absolutely no reason to believe these happened any less frequently before the Obama administration than they do now.

There is also absolutely no reason to believe this is any kind of real problem, as the actual number that are "unjustified" is vanishingly small.
The much more interesting question is why the media and activists are focusing on them now, and just how deeply is the administration involved in this campaign?
From day one Obama has divided this country by race,class and religion.
It's racist of field to solely blame white people for the actions and leadership of Obama.

Democrats understand that images of lynchings and white vice presidents talking about "y'all" blacks being put back in chains scares black people into voting more than talking about the issues does.
If democrats could win elections on the issues, they wouldn't need to use lynching images and lying to black people that rethugs are "Going to Put Y’all Back in Chains"

Well, judging by the increases in black on white crimes?
Yes it is open season on whites.
#whitelivesmatter
Of course, all the hate and angry that minorities have for whites is coming straight from the white house.
Before about two days ago could you have imagined hearing an apology for the statement “All lives matter?”
In this instance an unprincipled, appeasing shell of a human being named Kathleen McCartney (also unsurpringly the president of a liberal arts college) issued a platitude-filled statement of support for the professional activists after having apparently been impressed by their recent displays of erudition and dignified stoicism. Well obviously mere support wasn’t sufficient:
The Daily Hampshire Gazette, which first covered the story, quoted one Smith sophomore, Cecelia Lim, as saying, “it felt like she was invalidating the experience of black lives.”
In response to student backlash, McCartney apologized in another campus-wide email Friday, saying she had made a mistake “despite my best intentions.”
Because why would anyone on the planet give a raw damn about his own mere life or that of others when there is the eternal bleating of blacks to accommodate?
This is where America finds itself at an inflection point. We all understand the zeitgeist. Now that Kathleen McCartney has been forced to lie prostrate and beg forgiveness, we have been given fair warning that all lives decidedly do not matter.
Saying that “all lives matter” implies equal moral stature for whites. This is not going to be acceptable. Nor will the belief that laws should be applied impartially. Or that whites shouldn’t be stripped of their privilege, by force or by fire. With just a couple of new Supreme Court additions, the blindfold will be singed off Lady Justice entirely.
That is where progressivism is progressing.
#ONLYblacklivesmatter
The great Obama economy that FN has spoken about many times.
The Vanishing Male Worker: How America Fell Behind
...
The United States, which had one of the highest employment rates among developed nations as recently as 2000, has fallen toward the bottom of the list.
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/12/upshot/unemployment-the-vanishing-male-worker-how-america-fell-behind.html?abt=0002&abg=1&_r=0
Bottom of the list among developed nations.
No doubt if FN wasn't working he would have the opposite opinion of the Obama Economy.
"The said?"
Maybe FN's hacker is back.
Over 72 percent of blacks are born to unwed mothers, and 67 percent of black minors live in single or non-parent households. The widely documented and painful truth is that the children of single-parent homes headed by women fare considerably worse when it comes to education, crime and incarceration, employment, and poverty. This is to be expected, even holding all other factors constant, particularly in the case of males who lack father figures and seek out ways, often destructive ones, to affirm their masculinity.
Instead of addressing this thorny issue, however, racism is the rallying cry when there is a black victim shot or hurt by a non-black. When it comes to black-on-black crime, an obvious consequence of broken families, no one wants to know.
Should we remain hush about black-on-black crime, rather than engage in introspection? As odd as it may sound, many people think so. They don’t want its existence to distract from or justify cases of police brutality, as it can in some cases.
But how can we expect others to respect us when we don’t even respect our own kin? How can black lives truly matter when we don’t apply the same concern when blacks kill other blacks?
One can take it a step further and see the broken home environment manifesting in black abortion rates, since our women have more than any other demographic. Do black lives matter then?

Dear Mr Field, I've asked you this question several times but to date have not received an answer. It's not a question just for me, but a question for about 30% of your FN spiritual fans:
Are you censoring FocusedPurpose or is she just inconsistent? It's been days since we have heard from her.
Do you and some of your regulars who are also atheists have resentments against FP?
No Anon, I am not censoring that young lady. I would never do such a thing.As regulars to the fields will tell u, I do not censor folks on this blog.
Besides, I do not want to he struck with a bolt of lightning. You Christians don't play. :)
Does anybody know where FP is? This blog is empty of spirituality. WE NEED SOME SPIRITUALITY. I am sick to my stomach of politics and racism...can't we all get along?
I can't believe that FP has abandoned us. That is HN behavior!

Btw, those weed stocks you recommended have gone belly up. You need to pray for forgiveness for being a TNB sell-out on FN.
Mr Field, may I suggest you take your wife to see "Exodus"? Make her believe that you have some spirituality about yourself.
On second thought, don't bother. She wouldn't believe it anyway.
I am on my way to see Moses in action. I need some spiritual nourishing and time away from some of you secular political Negroes....racist Whites too.
Being on FN is like being in hell. There is no heaven in sight.
NO BIB what WE need are more Blacks GETTING AN EDUCATION BEYOND HIGH SCHOOL so they can LEARN and FAR more importantly, LEARN FROM AND MEET people who ARE Entrepreneurs.
Here's question for you. How many members of the Women Entrepreneurs group I'm a member of, do you think are only high school graduates? And here's a clue, NONE.

The greatest trick the white devil pulled was convincing blacks they didn't need Jesus.
I can understand blacks losing their religion.
Blacks believed the white devil when he told them that the black Jesus has left Chicago and is coming to the white house. He would uplift black America and end racial injustice.
Blacks now realize the evil of idolatry.
It's not to late. Join me in prayer. Let us pray to Jesus and hope he forgives you and your peoples for your moments of weakness.

Black People:
Do you ever notice that Palefaces NEVER, EVER, mention White on White crime; White on Black crime, or violent White criminality in ANY context???
AND ARE NEVER CALLED ON IT!!!
I see through the plan: Through the White Racist Honky News Media, (O'Reilly, Limpbaugh, Lemon et.al.) keep the camera and the spotlight on us, while totally keeping it off of themselves!! Whitey is setting Blacks up for some type of massive, colossal, punitive social action; like he did the Jews in Nazi Germany!
The White Racist Corporate News Media will not ask Ofcr. Wilkillson why he STARTED the physical altercation in the beginning by grabbing Bro. Mike by the neck??
DARREN WILKILLSON----HONKY!
GEORGE KILLERMAN-----HISPONKY!
Both these pussies started fights with Black men; and then pulled guns when the situation...(when they began getting their asses kicked!) got away from them.
A good example of the racist reaction to Obama's presidency was Glenn Beck trying to appoint himself as the new white peoples' MLK because the president wasn't white. Judging from the comments I've seen online, the lunatic fringe looks pretty large. And I don't just mean here. Comments on sites like foxnews.com are worse. And ignorance abounds where ever readers comment on the police killings. I'm white and I voted for Obama the first time because I thought he was the most likely to prosecute the Bush Administration war criminals. That was a disappointment. I planned to vote for a third party candidate the next time but I decided to compromise and pool my my vote in with the largest number of voters who have similar opinions to mine. I doubt that I will do that again. But Obama did do less harm than Hillary or Mitt would have. Clinton is a war monger and Romney is a pathological liar. If Romney had won we might never had heard any politician ever tell the truth again. A Romney win would have shown that lying every time you open your mouth wins elections.
