Obama’ As Community Organizer—Organizing Blacks Against Whites To His Own Benefit

"When black people first started using the confrontation tactic, they made a secret discovery. There was an extra dividend to this tactic. There was a creamy dessert. It wasn't just that you registered your protest and showed the white man that you meant business and weakened his resolve to keep up the walls of oppression. It wasn't just that you got poverty money and influence. There was something sweet that happened right there on the spot. You made the white man quake. You brought fear into his face."

At the Republican convention, VP nominee Sarah Palin famously observed:

“I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a ‘community organizer,’ except that you have actual responsibilities.”

This wisecrack evidently got under the skin of Senator Barack Obama. In Obama Suddenly Riled, [San Francisco Chronicle, September 4, 2008] columnist Carolyn Lochhead reported:

“Sen. Barack Obama ditched his normal languid cool today, punching back at Gov. Sarah Palin as he spoke with reporters in York, Pa, hotly defending his work as a community organizer… Obama’s hackles were clearly raised by Palin’s dismissal of his community organizing …”

The Obama message team then told us over and over about the unemployed steelworkers Obama had moved to Chicago to help.

Palin’s crack was funny. But it shows that, as I predicted in February, GOP nominee John McCain is choosing to fight the election with one hand tied behind his back. Even his VP candidate isn’t allowed to ask why Obama wanted to be a “community organizer”. Which “community” did this post-racial transcender of ethnic divisions want to organize?

Like most questions about Obama’s life, the answers about his community organizing revolve around a single word: race.

  • I FEEL THAT BLACKS USE THE RACE CARD MORE TO THERE BENEFIT THENANYTHING ELSE. THEY WILL USE VIOLENT INTIMIDATION TO WHITES.
    AND THERE IS ALOT OF WHITES THAT WILL SIDE WITH BLACKS JUST TO SAY THEY ARE NOT AGAINST BLACKS. BUT GIVEN THE CHANCH A BLACK WILL TURN ON HIS WHITE FRIEND IN FRONT OF HIS BLACK BUDDIES MORE OFTEN THEN A WHITE WILL TURN AGAINST A BLACK BUDDY. I SEE THIS ALL THE TIME BUT BRINGING IT UP ALWAYS CAUSES A FIGHT AND I AM THE BAD PERSON FOR IT
    WHAT WILL THE HAPPEN WHEN THIER BLACK PRES. DOSE NOTHING FOR HIS RACE.. I WILL LAUGH SO HARD AND THEN …..
