However, I'm willing to bet that much of the AAs surveyed are tepid supporters at best, who still place faith in Obama because of his skin color, but are nonetheless disappointed in his performance. The AA community is suffering tremendously. Astronomical unemployment numbers for that demographic, and Obama hasn't done a damn thing for them. It's sad to see so many still hoping that he will prove the naysayers wrong. Here is a video from Al Jazeera and it sure seems like a lot of blacks in this particular Chicago neighborhood are not satisfied with Obama's performance. The problem with these opinion surveys is that 88% is not able to separate the pride blacks have in their first (half) black POTUS and their disappointment. It's why many blacks stayed home this election cycle.Dimocratsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820377390281203107.post-24390828109563132832010-10-27T10:06:15.093-07:002010-10-27T10:06:15.093-07:00And he would use the race card again when the 2012...And he would use the race card again when the 2012 election cycle begins as he used it during the 2008 election cycle. Maybe he would try to repeal the amendment limiting the president to a 2 year term so he could run again on the 2020 election cycle. <br /><br />In my opinion, that is how ambitious he is. Have anybody noticed the pattern on how he won the elective seats he had?<br /><br /><br />Let me refresh dimming memories:<br /><br />1996 Illinois State Senate<br /> -he eliminated the competition until he ran unopposed.1<br /><br />2005 US Senate <br /> <br /> -2003- Obama begins running for US Senate; the leading Democratic candidate will withdraw in 2004 due to a sex scandal that Obama's campaign urged the Chicago Tribune to report.2<br /><br /> -2004, Jun- Obama's Republican opponent withdraws due to sex scandal2<br /><br /><br />1. http://attackmachine.com/blog/2008/08/20/how-did-obama-win-his-first-election/<br />2.<br />http://uspolitics.about.com/od/senators/a/barack_obama.htm<br /><br /><br />And thus, you could glean his overwhelming desire to do everything in order to win. <br /><br />And because this desire has been ingrained in him since he began to question his race since grade school in Ponahue, it totally suffused his personality and his dealings w/ the outside world.<br /><br />Mark my word: He will do everything to win the US election of 2012 and maybe try to repeal the amendment limiting him to 2 terms.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820377390281203107.post-77754858532156328802010-10-27T04:56:26.250-07:002010-10-27T04:56:26.250-07:00Spot on.
