Obama Announces African Americans for Obama organization WHAT???

He does that because people no longer discriminate between racist, bigots and prejudice. Racist is the belief that one race is better genetically than another/ Bigotry is a pre-conceived notion that one type of person, religion or culture is wrong because you believe otherwise. Prejudice is like you lock your doors of your car when you see a person (black or white or whatever) approaching your car when they only want to tell you that your gas cap is dangling and you feel really embarrassed for misjudging them. Most people who dislike Mr. Obama are not racist, I think. They are reacting to his policies. Those that are bigoted are wrong as are those who judge him through prejudice. I am none of those, I did not vote for Obama. I was actually happy when he was elected even though I knew what he was and thought maybe I was wrong...maybe I was mistaken about the warning signs I saw. I thought we might be making progress. I'm not racist, a bigot or prejudiced. I judge by a person's actions. And Mr. Obama is being bigoted and possibly racist when he institutes a "AA for Obama" movement. He's all about division and if we fall for it, it will be the catalyst for the final downfall of America. Greed first; division will finalize the end of America.

"somebody like me"?? He's a mulatto! He's not an African American. But he will play any card to get re-elected and the race card is in his hand because so many Americans don't think.

boy I bet he does and no one will step up to do one for the white ones running and aint he full of himself!

I agree! Obama is using the race card to garnish votes. What gets me is that the Obamas are elitists and do not care what problems face Black Americans in today's society. The Obama would never mix with average black Americans. Barack and Michelle Obama will use any means possible to ensure them an other 4 years of living the good life in the White House.

Fatcat, I felt compelled to respond to this as a favor to you since I know nobody wants a discussion where everyone simply writes to tell you how right you are and how much they agree with you, right? I mean, how boring is that...lol? That having been said, here's my "two cents...at least the President is up front about it, unlike the GOP candidates with their "dog whistle" messages like Newt Gingrich's "Food Stamp President" comments and claims that "poor children" have no role models to teach them a work ethic. Then there's Rick Santorum's "I don't want to make black people's lives better..." remark. Ron Paul doesn't really agree with the Civil Rights Amendment and I doubt if Mitt Romney's ever seen an African American other than Herman Cain! Annie

There would b riots in the streets fot sure. this guys a joke. i did c thru his bs an didnt vote for him the first time let alone a second time around..omg...... someone call al sharpton i gotta b a racist!!! Im so sick of the race card i think the majority of people are too he made it to presidency. on one hand i was so proud of my country to elect a black president yet i was heart sick that it was him this guys ruinin whats left of our country. an noone will say anything for fear of becomming labelled a biggot or racist. im sick of it he gets a free pass from all his wrong doings while presidents before him were scrutinized..an hammered for smaller things than him. well call sharpton cause this guy sucks! I dont care what anyone says

Personally this is one thing that has always bugged me and Martin Luther King never meant it to become White against African American, etc. and why is Obama like this when his Mom was blonde and White? Is he so ashamed? And personally does he think by doing this it will help his chances of being re-elected? If anything I would think it would in fact turn more against him and help one of the others run have a chance at being President for sure. Personally this is a SHAME and so very Un-American as well.

A whole deck of race cards.
