President's extremist pal calls for protection, rips America in 'decline'
Speaking at a televised roundtable alongside Nation of Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan, a personal friend and recent adviser to President Obama decried "right-wing white brothers" who are attacking Obama and who "could even attempt to kill him."
Cornel West, an extremist race-relations instructor at Princeton, was speaking last Saturday at the "We Count! The Black Agenda is the American Agenda" conference in Chicago organized by talk show host Tavis Smiley. The event was broadcast on CSPAN.
Stated West, "There are a number of highly misguided right-wing white brothers and sisters who are engaged in assault and attack and could even attempt to kill him (Obama). So we have to protect our brother. There's no doubt about that. And we have to keep track of those forces that will lie and degrade. ... He is our brother. He needs to be protected."

I am white and he is my brother also and, like all Presidents, he does need to be protected. Are you lobbyinig for someone to make an attempt on the life of the President by putting these comments in a purely racial context?
ReplyDeleteSo they are always calling us racists, but look at them!
ReplyDeleteHe's right. Just look at this site and some of the posts here. You don't really have to look very hard to find those "misguided right-wing white brothers" here. Welcome to the Eastern Shore.
ReplyDeleteSo what's the problem with these statements? Seem pretty true to me (regarding people out to get Obama). Many of our schools are crap. And many of the other points are in fact valid topics of debate. I saw no hate for anyone white. Another attempt by a certain segment to pull the race card, and we are not talking about blacks.
ReplyDeleteAnon 9:17 They are right just look at this Blog and you will see those deceiving "misguided radical Left Wingers" who wants to blame everybody else but themselves or their cause. Welcome to the Only Country in the World you, for now, still have free speech. The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how right-wing radicals who would teach/preach hatred are allowed to actually provide college courses based upon their extemist views, but let one left-wing radical want to teach a course based upon oppression and hatred, and they would be criticized.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the age of reverse discrimination!
Imagine what would happen if there was a "We Count! The WHITE Agenda is the American Agenda". That's all I have to say.
ReplyDeleteObama was elected by 53% of the voters of which approximately 70% had to consist of white voters. This should clearly demonstrate that America is truly a great Country, and has moved way beyond skin color game.
ReplyDeleteMany did predict that because of Obama's redicalism and background that he would be a very polarizing figure. Their predictions have turned out to be true.
Obama being part black has no bearing on his philosophy, because there are many conservative, patriotic black leaders that make no apologies for the greatness of America.
Thank God for them and their continued leadership, for we know the race baiters will be given the coverage and publicity.
9:41, remember that whites have always been a majority. So take a breadth and think about it. It has always been a white agenda. It's funny how you guys would love to rewrite history then claim reverse discrimination.
ReplyDelete2012 majority of babies born in US will be non-white. Hope they treat us better than we treated them.
ReplyDeleteYou can kill him with your VOTE.
ReplyDeleteso what?
ReplyDeleteThe truth of the matter is if Obama was assassinated the democrat / progressive party would benefit more . They would be able to call anyone who disagrees with them a racist assassin and be able to push forward with the rest of their radical agenda with ease aided by sympathy . So if something should happen to the President look left first !
ReplyDeleteFarrakhan is a racist idiot!
ReplyDeleteThe extremism on the left is much larger and far more dangerous !
ReplyDeleteEvery Presidential assassin has been a left wing loon !
ReplyDeleteEvery Presidential assassin has been a left wing loon !
ReplyDeleteYea, JW Booth sure was a radical leftist. Idiot.
What did they say that was incorrect? Farrakhan isn't an adviser to President Obama.
ReplyDeleteWow, did I miss in school what racism is? If these people who are saying Obama needs to be protected, can talk like this and not be called racist, what is wrong with this picture?? Has anyone else noticed African American aggression rising against the "White Brothers" since Obama became president or is it just me? Kinda funny how he never tells them to stop that what they're doing is wrong.
ReplyDelete6:19 Booth was a lefty all the way you idiot ! read a book !
ReplyDeleteI think your seeing the aggression from blacks on the rise because now that white people elected a black President their empty cries of racism now fall on deaf ears . They also want reparations from the government which is another form of slavery make the white devil work to pay the black man ! Obama wants Socialism as pay back !
ReplyDelete10:20 and 7:19 don't have a clue. It has been whites screaming "racism" more than anyone over the last 2 years. So many of you already get pissed because someone outside of your political party was elected president. That alone means you will ridicule the office holder and attempt to tear down his record. But man, now that it's a black man too? Well hell, it's ok to outright threaten the man's safety and cheer on the wackos talking about "armed revolution". Yeah, thats the American spirit!
ReplyDelete8:16 You seem to have forgotten the Bush years . The threatening of his life the movies made assassinating him books written about him with the same rhetoric and sit coms attacking him . So for you to come here and to play the victim and race card is laughable ! Obama is a socialist and is using his color to achieve his radical agenda ! Your selective memory speaks volumes of your intellect or lack there of!
ReplyDelete9:17, threats to Bush were called out for being despicable and unpatriotic. The point is that now you guys actually say it's ok since Obama is in.
ReplyDelete"Obama is using his color", although he has strayed away from pursuing any kind of "black agenda". So much so that the CBC is pissed. Wake up and join us in reality.
10:38 First I never heard anyone from the left call what was done to Bush despicable ! And I've heard the republicans tell people to stop the threats but when Eric Cantor was shot at the left remained silent. But you can't blame people for being scared of Obama with the despicable and underhanded way he forced health care on a nation that didn't want it . The people fear when the representative government no longer listens to the people . It's called Socialism at the very least . And as far as the CBC no one listens to that racist group anyway , I never said he was in black peoples corner I said he is a socialist that used his color to help implement his agenda . I think I'll stay out of your reality straight jackets look uncomfortable !
