Pax on both houses: "Obama, The Great Divider": The True Meaning

Former President Barack Obama claimed reparations for black Americans are 'justified' but explained in his podcast with Bruce Springsteen that it was a 'nonstarter' during his presidency because of 'white resistence'.

During his 2008 presidential campaign, Obama appeared to oppose reparations and argued that 'the best reparations we can provide are good schools in the inner city and jobs for people who are unemployed.'

Obama, 59, has launched an eight-episode podcast series called Renegades: Born in the USA with the 71-year-old rock legend, released through Spotify’s partnership with the Obama’s Higher Ground production company.

In the second episode, released on Monday, Obama and Springsteen spoke about race relations in the United States.

Springsteen asks Obama how he can hold that the same country that sent a man to the moon is the same country of Jim Crow laws, which were state and local statutes that legalized racial segregation and marginalized black Americans.

'We never went through a true reckoning and so we just buried one huge part of our experience and our citizenry in our minds,' Obama responds.

The Born in the USA crooner then noted that 'it feels like a reckoning is being called for' before asking Obama if the country is prepared to consider reparations, which are payments made and programs created to help the descendants of slavery.

'If you ask me theoretically "Are reparations justified?' the answer is yes,' Obama responded.

    • Whose agenda does the Obamanation serve?

    • well, the way Joe Biden is ruling this country that's who tells you where Obamanation serves right there. Because Obama and George Soros are calling the shot.

  • They did very little of the work. 

    They also.lived better here than in Africa while picking cotton

    The proof is. They haven't moved back to Africa in the 150+ years since they been freed because they know they have it better here. 

    Fuck them and their reparations. They weren't slaves anyway. Where my reparation. My grandfather taught to free them bastards. I'm saddened to say. 

    • Surprisingly Michael, black chattel slaves were in fact the main source southern: source of power to harvest, skill to produce craftwork or undertake animal husbandry, and perform domestic work for the wealthy. While it is true that the nation of Liberia was created for repatriation to the continent (a glossed over fact of history).

      Contemporay black folks today are striving to completeley divest themselves of the debilitating social welfare shackles offered by LBJ as a reparations come-on. To their credit, many have refrained. But there are the unfortunate few who have not, and their exploiters, the Socialist Progressives.

  • Obama is a Suni Kenyan Muslim Terrorist who wants to destroy America

    • Agreed

  • Obama was the worst president in US history.  He is the one running the presidency not Creepy Joe.  He wants oil dependency and open borders.  He hates America.  We cannot allow this idiot to ruin this country   Obama needs to go back to Kenya and leave patriots who love America alone.

    • Agreed

  • His family was in Kenya, Africa in those Slave days. It was the Confederate Democrats who owned slaves for their immensed plantations. Plantation owners did not fight in the War, they paid someone to go in their place.The poor farmers children went to war to escape the dull life of the farm. Read the history, idiots.

  • His family was never a slave - in fact they may well have been slave traders.  My family never owned slaves and my ancestors were never even residents of the USA when slavery was legal.  Right now we have Affirmative Action which was nothing but a way to provide less qualified black people with jobs that were normally held by white people who were more qualified.  They get drastically reduced college tuition and don't have to do as well on intrance exams that other people.  We foolishly elected a non-qualified black person who very well may not have been born in the USA and therefore not eligible as President. 

    He wants reperations, let him and his equally unqualified host [no brains, just a semi-talented musician]  pay them.  Not the hard working tax payers.
