Black America is elated. We have in this country of intolerance, our first black president elect. But wait: should black America be elated? What is in store for Americans, black and white as a result of the election of Barack Obama?
Obama wants to redistribute the wealth. What the hell does that mean? Whose wealth does he want to redistribute? Certainly not his own. According to his tax returns he and Michelle have given less than 2% of their own wealth to charity; his running mate did even worse; Joe Biden on an income of over $200k gave less than $400 in 2004.
President elect Obama says we should all be our brother’s keeper, yet he has a half brother in Kenya living in a hut little bigger than a phone booth on something like $10 a month income. His aunt and uncle are living in a slum apartment in Boston. So much for taking care of your own.
America is ready for a black president, and has been for some time. It is unfortunate for
Americans, black and white, that he is the one chosen. He did nothing to hide his socialist views or his socialist connections. The only thing he did hide was his birth certificate, his college records, who his law firm clients were, and who his campaign contributors were. In other words, America knows very little about the man we have just elected to be our first black president. However, we do know quite a bit about “Joe the Plumber”.
Maybe I’m wrong and Obama will be a great president. NAH! One thing I do think I am right about though, is, that I think Obama will hurt the election of a real American black candidate in the future.
That’s the view from my vantage point!
