When you have representatives such as Michelle Bachmann being reelected, there is definitely a big problem. I do think blacks need to get more involved in their local political races.

Whatever, I've voiced my opinion
Too many of yall are clearly suffering from internalized racism
It's not too much for Blacks to demand their government to do better
I'm done

I believe you stated before that you never been to the ghetto before if Im correct. I think a lot of ppl who have never lived or been there create an idea of what its like to live there based off what they hear and news stories. Dont get me wrong there are some areas worse than others but for the most part many of those living there are just trying to live.You will have ur ratchet folk but u will also have ur elderly and families who are just making due. My point being its not always about risking your life it is not that dramatic....Its the fear installed in ppl who have never lived there or been there that keeps those that are capable of helping out.

Obama isn't the only person that's part of our government though. IA with Gkisses, why limit your want for the government to change things to just Obama? Why skip over local and statewide government?

While there are some valid points made, I'm going to have to agree with this. Although we want him to be, the president is not god and certainly can't run the country all alone. If that was the case, we wouldn't need ANY other politician or local/state governments for that matter.

Ah So hundreds of kids die due to gun violence on a monthly basis in urban areas = work your way from the bottom starting with state politicians and hopefully the President will do something about it Dozens of kids die in a single day in suburban area = President encourages and gathers lawmakers and state Politicians to work together and fight for gun control ? Hmm ok.

are we denying that (white) americans don't think one american life is greater than 100 foreign ones? this can't be a this is like that argument, because these children will never be given "help" for what is done to them. no one will take ownership for their deaths.
