MY PRESIDENT IS BLACK...

Okay.. this blog isn't going to be as structured as others, simply because I'm tired but very angry. For the past few weeks, I have had to hold my tongue as best as I could on Facebook when it came to people saying things about our President. Let me clear this up for the first white person that I had to get told 2 weeks ago. Not all Black people voted for Barack Obama because he is Black. We are not all applauding everything that he is doing because he is Black. Now, I won't deny that this is a plus for some of us. It's a plus for me. I never thought that I would see the day. But I have. And I'm bursting with pride. But don't get it twisted. If this man was as "evil" as this woman claims he is, I wouldn't be on his team despite his skin color. And I'll try to forget about his white mother the way most of these racist Americans have to try and put it all on his race.
This particular woman who has so many Black friends...or so she says, is adamant that his complexion is why Black people voted for him. Yet, she had the audacity to say that she isn't racist. Then how did you even come up with this racist assessment? That's like me saying that the white people who didn't vote for him didn't vote for him because their racist. Do you see where this is going?
Now, tonight, I have had the pleasure of hearing someone refer to him as a Socialist. Now, I've already admitted that I do bask in the fact that he is a Black man. And because he is one of our own, I'm very sensitive to what people say about him. Hell, I know what he's up against in this country as it is. But to have another Black person refer to him this way...it pisses me off even more so than if that statement had come out of the mouth of a Klansman.
It doesn't help when this particular Black person should be listed as one of the Biggest Sellouts that I have ever seen! You never see him with Black women. You barely see him with Black men. His entire life is centered around the White culture; yet he's in a Black fraternity. I'm confused! Then for him to go up against the President like this! Even if you, as a Black person, don't like him...you should have enough respect for who and what he is to our people to not put him out there like that.
Some of us are so busy trying to assimilate that we don't have time to reflect and remember who and where we've come from and the people that have paved the way for us to get there. No disrespect to anybody white, but the truth of the matter is...they stick together....so why don't we? Right or wrong? White people know that George Bush was one of the biggest f%ck ups of all time; but most of them aren't going to admit it to the world. They stood behind him for 2 TERMS, trying to give him time and the benefit of the doubt. President Obama hasn't even been president for a year...
To the white people who despise our President....keep it to yourself. We did when it came to Bush! And don't make assumptions when it comes to the Black vote, because even though you SAY you're not racist...what you're spouting tells us differently.
And to the Black people who don't like Obama....keep it to yourself...and then try and muster up some type of respect...after all, he has achieved what we ALL thought was unattainable.
And to the Sellouts that don't like Obama.....there's really nothing that I can say to you....you and Becky have a nice night.
