Guy....Not sure if this, (bolded quote), is in jest, or not. But I heard Maxine Waters say something similar in an interview with Chris Matthews recently. Chris was pressing Congresswoman Waters about the dust up she was having with Freshman Republican Congressman Alan West at the time. At, one point, CW Waters huffed, "Well! I do believe he represents a white district." What she was saying is well-known code for Uncle Tom or Oreo.
Which begs the question. If you are Black and oppose this particular President, are you somehow less authentically Black? Do you have to think and act Black to be Black.
This sort of comment by Black leaders always reminds me of Dr King's I Have a Dream speech. "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

FYI the black pastor who is suing is probably an Uncle Tom (shill); covertly paid for by a white interest group.

None of this, other than the lawsuit is news to me. I took several US History classes in College back in the early 70s when there was still some acurate information taught. Since then the close mutually beneficial relationship between the teachers unions and democrat party is well documented. Better for them to bury the checkered past of the democrats than support a republican party known for opposing organized labor.
Only recently, democrats (and Obama) have started talking about charter schools, and ineffective teacher firing, as they learn that they cannot afford to be without the generous contributions of foundations and multimillionaires who seek to reform the school system and create a real qualified future employment base. Maybe then real, complete history will again be taught.

If Obama is dealing with whites unfairly to their detriment, if that is actually possible in an anglo-controlled/owned society, does anyone really believe that he could for very long, when it appears from what I read on here and elsewhere, that he is hated and blamed by so many white folks, for the destruction of modern society?? So this sounds like a full load of BS. But I also do not subscribe to the opinion that just because a black man disagrees with anything about Afro-American politics or culture, that he's automatically an Uncle Tom. Thats just inverting the race card.
