I'm not a fan of Obama's but I will say that I do understand where he's coming from with his message-- Over half of black families are devoid of a father figure. You can try laying blame on whoever as to why that is, but ultimately, much has to do with the upbringing of kids, be it in the ghetto or in the suburbs. Much has been written in regard to this and much of the blame has been placed on the government. Many conspirary theorists believe that the simple fact that over 60% of Black Men between 18-34 are currently behind bars is a government conspiracy. I'm not here to argue nor belabor that point. I'm just saying that I don't see this as a negative thing on Obama's behalf, asking black men to engage their kids, because chances are if these kids are brought up in an even half decent home, they wont be out there running the streets and getting in trouble. By the same token, I'm not saying that by doing those two things you'll raise a 'model' citizen, but certainly, it certainly can help in the upbringing of a child, so that said pattern repeats itself when that young child grows up and becomes a man.
So I don't think it's a bad thing that he challenged Black Men to engage their kids.Comment

theres a huge fucking problem in the black community with black men taking responsibility for the kids they create....the problem is they don't want to.
kids grow up fatherless. a percentage of those kids (not all) end up doing fucked up things. rinse and repeat. now you know why 50% of the U.S. prison population is filled with black males.
Obama is right. Period.★★★

Obvious troll is obvious.Obama tells black fathers to engage their children
Can you imagine if George W said, White fathers you need engage your children.
This is another reason not to vote for him.

No doubt one may quote history to support any cause, as the devil quotes scripture.

@ DBS.US
just because his father is a Muslim and his middle name is "Hussein" doesn't mean his friends with ObamaLast edited by Zester; 06-16-2008, 03:58 AM.Comment
