So...the BIG question is who is best for the Black population in America?
Martin Luther King, Jr. said: “I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
Obama fans seem to ignore the fact that he wants to spend spend spend and focus on his color!
"According to the National Journal: 'Obama has the most liberal voting record in the US Senate.' When we look beyond Senator
we find an arrogant, elitist millionaire whose voting record is even more liberal than Senator Hillary Clinton. "
Is this what we really need in America? A man who seems to have the confidence and charisma as Adolph Hitler or someone who really puts his country first.
Obama established a 20-year relationship with Rev. Jeremiah Wright who damned his own country and declared that innocent Americans deserved to be killed by Jihadists on September 11, 2001.
Yes indeed, he did denounce the comments made by Wright but what about the radical ideology he and Wright believed for those 20 YEARS!?
"Obama opposes school choice scholarships. Obama puts the special interest of the teachers’ unions above the interest of poor black children trapped in failing schools. He wants to deny black parents school choice scholarships and calls successful charter schools a mere “experiment”."
I went to a successful charter school for 3 years and it was not a mere "experiment" as Obama states, it was a successful charter school that sends children to some of the best schools in the country and gave us a well rounded education.
"Obama has done little to help blacks. Obama claims to care about poor blacks, but he has a dismal record. He promises to raise the minimum wage, but he voted against the minimum wage bill that was finally passed in Congress. Obama was a “community organizer” in Chicago. If his messianic message of “Hope” and “Change” is so powerful, why are poor blacks in Chicago still poor? Socialism does not work."
If someone who says they can gain experience on the job, why has his home state not changed? Did he "learn" enough on the job by not helping his own "people"?
Obama is so pro-abortion that, as an Illinois state senator, he refused to support legislation to provide health care to babies who survived late-term abortions. In a cold-blooded speech on the Illinois Senate floor, Obama said that he did not want to recognize as “persons” babies born fully outside their mothers’ wombs, even with their hearts beating and lungs heaving.
This is just sad! :(
"Obama wants to raise taxes even above the levels of the Clinton era. Obama wants to tax poor people, dead people and small business people. He wants to raise the payroll tax that would hurt working people. He wants to raise the death tax that would tax average Americans twice- -once while they are alive and again after they die. He wants to raise the capital gain tax that would make many small business people go out of business. He wants to increase domestic spending massively and create a costly healthcare plan that would plunge our government into an economically disastrous budget deficit. This is change that we do not need.
Obama said on CNBC that high gas prices were “good,” and his only concern was that the increase in price be a “gradual adjustment.” He does not want to drill for oil in America. He does not support
the federal “gas tax holiday” that would help poor people afford more gas. He is aligned with the environmental extremists and is out of touch with average Americans, since 73% of the American people agree that, with appropriate safeguards to protect the environment, we should drill for oil off America’s coasts to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Obama and other Democrats in Congress are blocking drilling by America while the Communist regimes of China and Cuba collude to
exploit the oil and gas resources off our own Gulf Coast.
In 2006 when the Democrats took over Congress, they issued a press release which stated that the Democrats had a “common sense plan to reduce gas prices.” The report card is in, and the record shows that by 2008, Americans have suffered from record high gas prices, the highest in the history of our country. A public opinion survey revealed that the Democratic-
controlled Congress has a dismal 9% job approval rating, the lowest in history, with 83% of the American people expressing disapproval of the miserable job that Democrats are doing running the legislative branch of our government.
So the bottom line is...if Blacks think Obama is right because he is Black...look at his record and see how many times he has given his support for pro-black legislature...or to the poor at all!
Thanks,
Josh
