This clip is hilarious.

Obama tries to tell the "bruthas" they're not entitled to have
aspirations. Their role is to be victims of Old Whitey and to obediently
vote Democrat because they'll never amount to anything, that's all
they're fit for and how dare they wish for something better for
themselves and their families.

Not so eloquent when unscripted and doesn't have an auto-cue! :-D

 
I don't entirely understand his little lecture. Is he saying that black
men should vote for Harris because she's black (and she is even less
black than he is) or is he saying that black men should vote for a woman
to prove that they are not black?

The first part is the key. He's saying that Harris shares the same values
as they do (she doesn't). She comes from the same background as they do
(she doesn't). She's suffered the same discrimination as they have (she
hasn't). And so on. But they're not falling for it. I wanted to post the
follow-ups to this clip on Twitter from black voters. They were without
exception hostile. Zero hedge featured them in case anyone actually GaS.
Black conservatives (god bless 'em) are not fooled by Obama and in fact
feel decidedly insulted by him. His little lecture backfired
spectacularly! :-D
