President Obama was here in Georgia last week to campaign for Democrat Senate candidate Michelle Nunn, and in an appearance before a largely black audience, he revealed something about just how little Democrats really respect the intelligence of black people.
And yes, I know, this is our black president I’m talking about. Always remember that he is a left-wing Democrat first.
Here was Obama’s basic message to this audience of black folks concerning why they should elect Nunn to the Senate: “If Michelle Nunn wins that means Democrats keep control of the Senate and we can keep on doing some good works.”
Let’s look at the numbers (in all cases giving you the most recent numbers I could get):
* The median income for blacks in 2013 was $34,598. It was $35,387 in 2009.
* In 2013 the number of blacks living under the poverty line -- roughly $12,000 for an individual – rose to more than 11 million. In all, 27.2 percent of blacks were living in poverty in 2013. In 2009, roughly 9.9 million blacks (25.8 of all blacks) lived below the poverty level.
* Non-Hispanic blacks accounted for 37.4 percent of the total federal and state prison population in 2013. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, blacks are 13.2 percent of the U.S. population.
* 43 percent of blacks owned their own home in 2013. The rate was 46.1 percent in the first quarter of 2009.
* Black students had a high school graduation rate of 69 percent in 2011-12. The rate was 66.1 percent in 2009-10.
* From 2009 to 2011, the number of black workers earning only the minimum wage swelled by 16.6 percent, while the same number for whites rose by only 5.2 percent.
So why does the president want black people to vote Democrat? Because they’re black. And they need those “good works” to continue. Right. When you find any of those good works, please send me the list.
Let me pose a serious question to my fellow black people. If you just voted for Obama because you felt like it would be important to the black community to have a black president – for the emotional uplift, for the self-esteem boost it would provide, for the historical triumph it would represent – I disagree for lots of reasons, but I understand the thinking. But having said that, how can you possibly look at the results we’ve gotten under Obama and the Democrats and want their agenda to continue?
The facts are as straightforward as they can possibly be. Black people might feel good about having a black president, but they are not better off as a result of his policies. They are worse. Much worse.
