Blacks Far More Satisfied With U.S. Under Obama

Full story: www.gallup.com

Blacks' satisfaction with the direction of the country has surged since Barack Obama became president in January, while satisfaction among whites has increased by far less. Today close to half of black adults nationwide, 47%, say they are satisfied with the way things are going in the country. In mid-2008, the figure was 10%.

I'd like to know why more isn't being said with Senator Wyden about his comments regarding the Public Option, and that it might turn into "Ghetto Healthcare". I really feel that is an outright racist and inflammatory statement. I ask that Senator Wyden issue a public apology to all that support the Public Option. That is racist in it's worse degree!

Just shows how racist blacks are. That's why 96% of them voted for Bammer in 2008!!!

Blacks support anyone who's black.

A Poll out of Princeton, NJ released on the eve of an election where the Dem may loose which touts how blacks are "satisified" and "Dems" lean in the same direction as the blacks. How Convenient..

Nothing like more "racist dribble" to muddy the waters and sway votes.

No different than white skinned people that vote for all white candidates. They are more racist. What a crock of bull you try to spew.

Yep, imagine the media if a white guy replaced a black president, and the country was going down the tubes, unemployment was skyrocketing, the debt was setting new records, foreign dictators were laughing at us...but whites felt things were great because the Pres was a white guy. The mind boggles at the double standards today.

All of those occurred under Bush, and there were plenty of whites who thought things were great.

Actually, the African Americans would all love to pat George Bush on the back. He's the only one that managed to get one elected!

Wonder what Blacks so happy about?....their being over 30% unemployed/underemployed per the U6 Report? The fact that they are made fun of daily now in just about every arena of America life (Blackfaces everywhere)? The fact that the ire of the entire nation is looming over them as they take the blame for every social ill and that their very continued existance in America is under great threat both from White Rage and Hispanic displacement? The fact that the Liberals have made them the sacrificial lamb in this failed move to Socialism?

I don't see too much for them to cheer about. But then again, they historically have always been a "little" slow

Typical, throw a little black bait in the water and watch the suckers come running. It's no secret that racism is to most of white America, what full body bomb suits are to mid-east terrorist. It's a battle for the hearts and minds. Racism the white mans alkalies heal, Hitler blame the Jews, in America it's the blacks.

Wait - are you talking about those who pay taxes and whose 401k's are crap, and whose jobs are in jeopardy?

Or those shiftless, freeloading, welfare-parasites?

I have no problem with him being a white/black mix. He is the 6th mixed race prez actually the 2nd mulatto.
He is nothing special. After all Bill Cliton claimed he was the 1st black president.

But isn't the entire Liberal mantra of "Wealth Distribution" about taking the wealth and prosperity of lazy assed Republicans and giving it to welfare parasites such as yourself, without you ever having to work for it?
Just wondering...not like it's ever going to happen.

The real question is after 165 years of freedom and immense encouragement, you still haven't moved out of the country to escape all this "oppression" and "bigotry". You've never been accepted. You aren't acceptable now. Don't really see anything changing in the future for you. So why stay?
Why is that?

This is sad.

Opinions based soley on skin color are racist.

Same policies, same situation but a different skin colored president and the number of satisfied drops back to 10%.

Looks like everybody's racist except me and some guy from Mongolia living in the Montana wilderness.

Blacks have really let themselves down with this one.

I had 30 plus years career that took me in contact with Democrat state employees on a regular basis.

During those years, I heard more racists comments from Blacks in general and White Democrats. I was amazed at the remarks that come from both. Blacks said lots of things about whites and blacks. The whites said a lot of things about blacks. It seemed no subject was off limits.

Too bad!
