Racism surfacing in 2009-SEP,
directed against President Obama

horizontal rule

Sponsored link.

Quotation:

bulletBill Maher: "These people want to call Obama a certain word ... and they can't. So they call him every other word. He's a communist; he's a fascist; he's a Marxist. But there's a word they want to call him. It begins with 'n' and ends with 'er' and its not 'nation builder'." 1

Racism and the presidency:

The hot topic in Washington, DC and around the nation during late summer in 2009 is health insurance reform. Debate has been vitriolic at times. Some political commentators and former president Jimmy Carter believe that some opposition to President Obama's policies exhibits such intense animosity that it can only be grounded in racism.

Topics covered in this section:

bulletBackground. Birther movement. Disrespect in Congress. DC Tea Party
 
bulletStatements by former President Jimmy Carter & Press Secretary Robert Gibbs
 
bulletResponse by Michael Steele, Jim Wallis and this website's webmaster.
