FOX mogul throws weight behind authentically Black Carson
by Joseph Earnest October 8, 2015
Newscast Media NEW YORK—It is most true that Barack Obama has done very little for the Black American community, perhaps because he is afraid of offending the non-Blacks who put him in office, and will eventually fund his presidential museum. One could also say that the reason Obama hasn't shown concern for Black America because he is half Black and half White, therefore by default, a half caste will always be loyal to the White half of his family.
While gays got several laws passed in their favor as Obama fought for them, he never once said he is not a president for gays but a president for all Americans. When corporations wanted bail out money, Obama never once said he wasn't a president for corporate America but everybody's president. When the Latinos sought immigration favors, Obama flung the doors open and did not say he wasn't the president for only Hispanics but everyone's president.
Yet, on a BET interview when asked why he hadn't done anything for Black America, Obama said, "I want all Americans to have opportunity. I’m not the president of Black America. I’m the president of the United States of America."
Even after that remark, the Black American voters demonstrated their shallowness and foolishness in terms of voting, reaffirming that the Black voter is an emotional creature, either unwilling or unable to use critical thinking when making life-changing decisions. As such, Black America once again voted for Obama to serve a second term, and have nothing to show for their support of Obama.
This week FOX media empire founder Rupert Murdochreceived blow-back by referring to presidential candidate Ben Carson as the first "real Black" president. In a tweet, Murdoch said, "Ben and Candy Carson terrific. What about a real black President who can properly address the racial divide? And much else."
According to Deutsche Welle, the 84-year-old Australian-born US resident has praised Carson on Twitter before, calling him "irreproachable on background, achievements, character, vision." Carson has received a boost to his campaign in recent weeks with a series of interviews on television and in print; as Murdoch pointed out, one poll this week put Carson ahead of former front-runner Donald Trump.
In September, Murdoch had commented on the differences in background and upbringing for Obama and Carson: "2 stories. Carson, Detroit ghetto to brilliant neurosurgeon. Obama white upbringing to community organizer. Sincere men, different values," he wrote. Add Comments>>
