I am not sure how to take the video after watching his last comment about anyone who disagrees with Obama’s policies are racist. Anyone who thinks such as Clinton along with Carter, are all racist must have racial issues themselves. I do not think in the above video Mr. Carter referring to Obama as a”black boy” was racial. Obama is not fully African American, he is white as well.
Ok, I listened to it. He was talking about where Obama came from, not calling him a “black boy” as he stands now! If we are going to go off about stuff, please make sure you have your context correct. Please? It makes us all look ignorant if we take something out of context like this. Is it racist because he called him black? Should he have said young african-american? This is blown too out of proportion.
Oh, for goodness’ sake! Are you black or are you not, Mr. Obama? Are we “allowed” to use the term “Black” or are we not, Mr. Obama? What IS the politically correct thing to say IF we are describing a person’s skin tone? And if we were to be describing your ethnicity, Mr. Obama, what would we correctly say? Personally, I’d prefer not to HAVE to describe a person’s skin tone, but that’s rather like trying to describe what someone is wearing and having descriptive words banned from our vocabulary.
And “Boy?” Compared to Jimmy Carter, Obama IS a BOY! Carter is OLD! But, I GET IT. This is twisting Carter’s words and intentions just like HE is twisting OUR words and intentions. (On the surface, at least. One might guess at what he was thinking as he said these words, but one can only guess.)
No, in fact, what he did was worse, on BOTH COUNTS because HE is INCITING racial unrest. Aren’t there LAWS about that?
I am so SAD to hear any of this from anyone in this country!!!! Grow up.
The minute he commented I thought he was projecting his own deep seeded racism. He is a biggot of the worst kind and his philanthropic actions are only a cover for his hate. He should shut up and go away.
“This black, um, boy” well now that explains why Carter thinks everything negative concerning the big O is racially motivated. Because his experience with race is limited to calling African American males boy…..yup that fits nicely……
