Sadly you completely MISSED the point of this article, which is that black folks need to take the blinders off and hold Barack accountable just like every other group in this country. Otherwise black people will be taken for granted and marginalized just like every other president (democrat and republican) has done. Comments such as “Oh Michelle looks so wonderful or Barack is such a great husband” almost make me cringe because it tells me that ni matter what he does in office, no matter how much blacks continue to suffer in this country, we are satisfied with just having a black face in office. Meanwhile, Barack's 4 years will come and go and we will have missed perhaps a once in a lifetime opportunity to leverage our political power to bring about real change for African Americans. I personally could care less if he's cute, if Michelle loves him, if she wears nice clothes etc. What I do care about is the economic stability of my family, that I can continue to afford to send my child to a good school and provide a safe and decent home for her. It's time to get our heads out of the clouds and hold OUR president accountable. Also I disagree with the author about another thing, some of us black folk do care about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

I am just as war weary as the next person but President Obama always said he would escalate troops in Afghanistan and withdraw them in Iraq……anyone who came to another conclusion just were NOT listening.

"Obama could send 100,000 more troops across the sea, or he could bring everyone home; either way, people will still (incorrectly) consider him to be the second coming of Martin Luther King, Jr.

...

In fact, even when it comes to matters that affect us most, it would take a long list of incredibly irresponsible decisions before the black community is to ever turn on their political superman.

....

African-Americans will stick with Obama through the war. They will stick with him through health care. They will stick with him through hell, high water or the return of bell-bottom pants. They love Barack Obama - and no war, economic downturn, educational crisis, or health care quagmire is going to change that. He might as well name himself the King of Black America."

Sounds like Dr. Boyce believes he could have solved ALL of Blacks problems by now if he was president.

Isn't it odd, its always the POC with the focus in a crowded room of miscreants and the POC's transgression is always perceived as MORE severe. Congressional ethic problems and Senate Ethics Committee investigating Ensign.

You might want to give Charlie a jingle and tell him he can borrow those Rosetta Stone tapes….once he's in prison, it'll be too late.

I just happened to read the 'plot line' for tonight and it struck me as interesting, but I got “busy” and missed it.

Yeah but that doesn't mean they're necessarily out. Zev has Asperger syndrome. I could tell right away 'something was up.' I have a nephew with Williams syndrome and though it's not related, you tend to pick up on such things.

That strolling couple drove me nuts. And that lawyer – un-freakin-believable how disgusting he is. I LOVE that show.
