Barack Obama - First To Play The ‘Race Card’ again!
Barack Plays The Race Card
Barack Obama said on Friday he expects Republicans to highlight the fact that he is black as part of an effort to make voters afraid of him.
I thought Barack was multi-racial and bridged the racial divide.
Now I remember, Obama played the ‘Race Card’ months ago.

“It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy.” “We know what kind of campaign they’re going to run. They’re going to try to make you afraid.”
“They’re going to try to make you afraid of me. He’s young and inexperienced and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?”
He said he was also set for Republicans to say “he’s got a feisty wife,” in trying to attack his wife Michelle.
“We know the strategy because they’ve already shown their cards. Ultimately I think the American people recognize that old stuff hasn’t moved us forward. That old stuff just divides us,” he said.
Obama, born to a white mother from Kansas and a black father from Kenya, has cast himself as a candidate who can bridge divides within the country, including those involving race.
Looks like his strategy is to make ‘Race’ an issue. I thought the Messiah was above that.
But Not The Guy Below
