Obama has pissed off black men. How dare he tell them they should step up to the plate aand support their kids! I hope they are paying attention to the "new" Obama now that he is nominee. He is now running to the center, trying to get white votes by calling out black men. As a single woman who gets no child support, trust me on this: They are going to be pissed!
I had been saying when he gave that speech in Pennsylvania, he should be telling black men to take care of their kids because the destruction of the black family is at the root of the problems in the black community. Now that he has, men like Dr. Mark Lamont Hill is criticising him, saying he is letting the Government off the hook. Am I missing something? Is it the government impregnating women and walking away? Dr. Hill claims men are not willing to work because their money is taken away, therefore they have no incentive to work. He also claims some are not able to because of drugs or mental illness. How then, does he explain able bodied men not supporting their kids? How about professional athletes, musicians (rappers), and celebreties who have the means but are still not supporting their kids? I knew sooner or later, he would say something to get the white votes but would anger the black people. Welcome to politics Obama!
