The candidate whose spiritual leader condemns America with vocal convulsions of "God Damned America" also believes that the average American is spurred by frustration. While he stands on his pedestal, blessed by the press over the past several months, this first-generational American is bellowing now his excuses for his condescending blurbs. He seems to be making a lot of after-the-fact excuses and explanations for flippant comments and those of his spiritual leader, these days. I wonder if he clings to his religion because of frustration, too? Or is spiritual frustration reserved for only those of US whose backgrounds are rooted in blue-collar America?
How genuine is Obama's claim to the presidency? Well, apparently he does not understand the heart and soul of the average American. But, what about his claim to the presidency based on race? He is trying to become the first African-American president. But, does he really represent African Americans? While African-American by race and color, Obama is second generational to this claim and shares little to no commonality with African-Americans in our society in terms of history and the struggle that this population of people share in our country. He is the son of a Kenyan immigrant who shares nothing in common with other African Americans other than the color of his skin. He does not represent the struggle of black Americans whose families have been in this country for generations and who have been wronged over the years. He has no commonality with the African-American history, and his representation of African-Americans as a candidate for the presidency of the United States is by all intents and purposes bogus.
Obama's roots in black America are short. His father, from Kenya, never had to face American injustices. His grandparents were never enslaved. His mother is white. His roots to black America is more rhetorical than real. If Obama becomes president of the United States, he does not truly represent black Americans and the difficulties they have faced in American society over the years. With Obama as president, black Americans still will not have really "overcome" anything. He is not really one of them, historically speaking. But, he is using them to make a claim on the presidency.
For all the excuses that this candidate makes after-the-fact for blunders that stem from his oral orifice, the news media are bent and determined to stand by him and to whitewash his candidacy. Wouldn't it be better that the media allows us to get to know the real man behind the candidate without their skewed comments? Those blunders he continuously seems to be making may very well be representing the "real" candidate - moreso than the whitewashed propaganda that the media feeds us! Barrack Obama does not represent the average American, and he doesn't even really represent African-Americans. Who does he represent?
