    was he wrong in his statement? it is a fact that more people are on food stamps under obama than any previous president. Facts are not racist, they are facts. people who saw racism in that post are the real racists, looking for reason to be offended

    MLK said something along the lines of rewarding people based on the content of their character, NOT the color of their skin.... well 50 years later, we are rewarding people based on the color of their skin..... so what did he even fight for???

    I _am_ a white guy who had a very large amount of privilege globally-speaking, but through various life experiences I have developed the ability to recognize that. You should, too.

    bullshit, you are no able to recognize a real problem, you have been programmed to believe there is a real problem. There may have been, years before we were born, but everyone can go to college, everyone can get a good education, and that, and ONLY that should matter.

    you saying just shows what is wrong with this country. we cry about how horrible sexism and racism is, that address it with even more sexism and racism. yeah, thanks alot.

    why not? all sorts of people claim racism when it does not really exist , for example disagreeing with obamas economic or foreign policy. why dont people call out actual racism when it is there? just because its against white people its ok??? what next "whites only" drinking fountains... in a negative connotation??????

    ahh, i see, I understand now. Personally I would call him a liberal as well, anyone who wants to push a nanny state as bloomy did to me anyway is a liberal hes not as liberal as most democrats, but to me personally, a lot of his big nanny state legislation screams liberal. but a NYC conservative is always going to seem liberal just as a san fran republican would as well

    not the point he was making at all. The point stands, when obama doesnt get his way through congress, he does it anyway, just as bush did, and just as bloomy tried.

    too much power in the hands of any 1 individual be it mayor or president is a bad thing.

    in other words, check your biases, moron
