A disgusting performance by Obama yesterday, the first elected Black President who pushed race wars during his 8 years in office.

When he was elected, while I didn't think he was at all qualified, I thought he'd at least torpedo the self victimization of minorities.
Now we've got more "victims" than ever.

That was my feeling and sentiment as well when he became President, I didn't feel he would represent me well, I didn't think he was really qualified, (Community Organizer), I took the best I could from it which was I was proud that we as a country could elect a black President in this country, I really thought that would set precedent and show that anything can be attained, anything is possible, the America Dream was alive and well. Unfortunately, not only did I not like his policies, I believe he failed on race relations 100%. In fact he set us back, race relations in many ways was actually better then before he arrived on the scene. He was a trained Alinsky "DIVIDE and CONQUER" ideologue, he put that to use and work in his 8 years.

We all said the same thing... right before our liberal "friends" yelled at us, called us names, and unfriended us. UNFORTUNATELY, all we had to offer were John McCain and Mitt Romney. Osama set right off implementing all Alinsky rules and the poor, downtrodden bought it.

What do you consider Obama biggest disappointment from your expectations?

It is hard to be disappointed with Obama since the GOP's candidates over the years included McCain, Dole, Bush, and Romney. I didn't care for any of them, let alone Obama. So disappointment may be the wrong word, considering I didn't expect much. But what is the worst thing Obama did? Lift the pause in gain of function research right before Trump took office. That cost millions of lives. Granted, many of those would have died from the common cold, but having this coronavirus out there didn't help things.

What do you consider Obama biggest disappointment from your expectations? For me, that's an easy one. Obama was granted a unique opportunity and privilege never bestowed on any other American president: As a black man with a Muslim father, he had the credibility and charisma to help heal racial tensions, mistrust and dislike in this country like nobody else before him. Instead, he did the opposite. Rather than use his position and his office for furthering the cause of unity, he did as much to widen the gap between the races as anybody in recent history. I can never forgive him for that.

That's how I feel MDDad. Thanks for putting it in words for me.
