It is clear from this video that Sharpton is an official Obama supporter. Obama can do no wrong. But, I ask you, is that the case? I would say, unequivocally, NO! Afghanistan, Israel, Libya, on the global stage, NO! Domestically, not one word about the disparate impact of mass incarceration on the African American community. Unemployment, and its disparate impact on the African American community, NO! Obama hasn't been right on anything, except moving to the right. It appalls me to see him adopting the Bill Clinton administration playbook without revision. Obama's administration and staff is no different than Clinton's. This, in and of itself would not be a bad thing if it weren't for the fact that Clinton was the worse thing that happened to black America. Welfare reform that exacerbated poverty and homelessness disproportionately for blacks. The evisceration of habeas corpus that made appeals from criminal convictions impossible in many cases. So, why has he become so Clintonian? The Clinton strategy of moving to the center got him a second term at the expense of his base, the black community. It looks like Obama is going to give the black community some more of the same. Sharpton is right about one thing, we need to hold his feet to the fire by showing him and his administration that we are sick and tired of being USED!
SUPPORTING A BLACK FACE ON THE EMPIRE IS NOT WHY WE SUPPORTED HIM.
