@Sion I like you but @traestar and I have explained to you that Obama did nothing for black folks while we were getting slaughtered, and Obama wasn't speaking on our plights, or even putting policies that favored everone elses but us. Waken up my man.
Unfortunately @Sion, Obama gave people the illusion of change. He did do things for the LBGT, Latino community, and women. But we have witnessed 4x as many police executions then we ever witnessed in this country in the last 8 years. Who would've thought that Amadou Diallo style murders would continue to happen at the intense rate in the 2000's-2010's. Those police unions sent a message to Obama and he refused to address AND state action. He instead he called blacks "thugs". Every single president MAINTAINS the status quo.
What I will say Obama did under the radar that is sort of a blessing in disguise and explains the unexplainable genocide of African Americans is that he went on the Tom Joyner morning show and said "I don’t look at myself as the first ‘BLACK’ president because the word ‘BLACK’ has no standing at law"https://www.facebook.com/PastAndPresentKingsandQueens/posts/167460326711167

But certain things in our country should disqualify you. And the fact that millions and millions of Americans don’t think that racism and sexism disqualifies you to be our leader, in our country ... . We presume to tell other countries about human-rights abuses and everything else. We better never do that again, when our leaders talk to China or anybody else about human-rights abuses.
“We just elected an openly, brazen misogynist leader and we should keep our mouths shut and realize that we need to be learning maybe from the rest of the world, because we don’t got anything to teach anybody.

We all have to find our way to move forward, but that was -- and I’m not even trying to make a political statement. To me, that’s beyond politics.
“You don’t get to come out and talk about people like that, and then lead our country and have millions of Americans embrace you. I’m having a hard time being with people. I’m going to walk into this arena tonight and realize that -- especially in this state -- most of these people voted for the guy. Like, (expletive), I don’t have any respect for that. I don’t.

You’re supposed to be — at least you pride yourself on being the moral compass of our society. And you said, ‘Yeah, the guy can talk about women like that. I’m fine with that.’ He can disparage every ethnic group, and I’m fine with that.

I respectfully disagree.
As for police executions, you also have to keep in mind what eras you're equating it to. There's a lot more people in America than there were in the 1960s civil rights era and 70s. With the advent of social media, just because more of it is broadcast doesn't mean there's more than any other time.
We had police brutality and marches in the 80s and 90s, often we forget history. What do you really want Obama to do about police abusing their power ? You know how hard that is to enforce legislation to stop police from being fuckin racist ? You can only go so far with that unfortunately. That's the fucked up truth. He's the president not God. And like I said with the House and Senate being owned by the republicans, he couldn't pass many laws without them also signing off on the things they wanted to see and have. A wonder he even got things done.
I want to see where in my post did I say anything trollish @a.mann @BangEm_Bart, do you research. It's a con game.
I respect that @Sion. And as a disclaimer, I do not dislike Obama at all and will miss the family during their term. Actually the REAL person I've saw making a difference is Michelle Obama especially with her movements addressing the GMO foods. But Obama is doing his job as a CEO of the United States and his job is to continue to maintain the status quo. Check out those Executive Orders he has put in effect over his entire term.
Even coon Allen West admitted this:

Election of Donald Trump Deepening Racial Divide in NFL Locker Rooms
"One of the greatest days of my life," a white offensive lineman from the AFC told B/R.
"Easily one of the worst days of my life," said a black offensive lineman, also from the AFC. "It's like my dog died. Worse."
The reaction from NFL players to me in the wake of Donald Trump's election as the nation's 45th president was swift and long-lasting. It carried through election night, into the next morning, and throughout Wednesday. Over two dozen players expressed themselves in numerous complex thoughts, simple outbursts and heated arguments with me.
The general feeling among the six white players with whom B/R communicated was that the Trump election was good for the country and happened because Americans wanted change and a fixing of economic issues.
In sharp contrast, eight black players I spoke with expressed the sentiment that the Trump election was one of the ugliest moments in American history and was about white America wanting to keep blacks, and other people of color, as one black player said, "in our place."
The comments from both groups of players were at times raw, angry, introspective and dizzying, even more so than for a similar Trump story I wrote before the election.
In all my conversations, the most striking aspect was the difference in how black players and white players viewed Trump. It was as if they were talking about two different people, a phenomenon that likely mirrors the American electorate.
Take, for example, how two white players felt the election of Trump would help bring players closer to fans and maybe even reverse the recent ratings decline.
"Trump is creating a more blue-collar America," said a special teams player, "and at its core, our sport is a blue-collar sport."
Meanwhile, several black players expressed a different view of some fans. They felt those who voted for Trump would root for them on Sundays, but once the games ended, those fans wouldn't, as one player stated, "give them a bucket to piss in."
Perhaps most importantly, players on both sides of the Trump aisle insist that NFL locker rooms remain divided over Trump and have seen that chasm grow in the wake of the election.
It's impossible to tell how accurate this view is, but it continues to be something mentioned to me.
What's certain is I have never seen NFL players both so happy and infuriated at the same time. I've never seen players this fired up over anything that wasn't related to a work stoppage or Roger Goodell.
There was definitely some locker room polarization when Barack Obama was first elected president in 2008, but the dynamics were different. The player base is approximately 70 percent black, and most of the black electorate backed Obama.
Exit polling by NBC this year showed that 89 percent of black voters were either concerned or scared if Trump were to win. My guess is those percentages would hold up, or be close, in NFL locker rooms.
"If you voted for Trump," said one AFC offensive starter, "I don't trust you."
"Black players are constantly playing the race card [when it comes to Trump]," a white NFC player said. "This election had nothing to do with race."
He wasn't alone in his views.
"Hillary Clinton was a terrible candidate," another white player said. "That's why she lost, not because of race."
Other white players said Trump won because of the increase in Obamacare premiums and Supreme Court appointments.
All of the white players, in fact, said Trump's election had nothing to do with race. White players who voted for Trump, or knew people who did, in fact, were furious with the notion they or Trump supporters were racist.
All of the black players, on the other hand, said Trump's election was mostly, if not all, about race.
Several black players with whom B/R spoke saved some of their anger for Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who wrote a letter of support to Trump, who then read the letter at a rally on the eve of the election. Belichick defended writing the note, saying it wasn't politically motivated and was penned because Trump was a friend.
But some of the black players I spoke with said they didn't understand how black players on the Patriots weren't enraged with Belichick. Or with Tom Brady, who Trump said supported his candidacy.
"Very disappointed in [Belichick]," one player said. "I thought he was better than that."
(One aside: In my time covering the league, Belichick has been one of the most open-minded men I've ever known. Yet in various front offices around the league, there was surprise he so publicly endorsed Trump.)
In the end, maybe everyone should heed the words of former NFL offensive lineman Damien Woody, who tweeted some pretty good advice this week:

Sion;9487283 said:Fellas I have work to tend to so I'll come on later tonight. But I aint finna debate Obama because it doesn't fuckin matter anymore. Trump won and he's pushing in his first 100 days to implement legislation that will allow him to repeal every single law Obama and Bill Clinton enacted that he deems unconstitutional..... He said this as the third thing he is going to do.
Niggas are gonna miss the fuck out of Obama in 2 years.... Obama was given the world he didn't make it. He did the best he could do with what he was given and did an amazing job in 8 years. The great things Obama did will be accredited to Trump when they come to fruition and will be used to defend him when he enacts his tyranny and destroys communities and minorities.
It's fine, @Sion. I'm not arguing with you. But please understand that Obama was powerless against the entire system of white supremacy. You have sick individuals out there that made sure Donald Trump was president..meaning they didn't care about what's right, they didn't care about the people, they want to justify harming people of color especially African Americans. And they have the money, the organizational influence, and political connections to make that happen. Peep that Tariq show that @blackcaesar shared, he breaks it down.
For those who disagree with anything I'm talking about ask yourself this: why has the Dred Scott decision, Virginia Black Codes, and benign neglect never been overturned?

White men won last night. And they didn't need gays, illegal aliens or to suck up to women to get it.
Black men should learn a lesson from this . . . but the simps won't.
