‘Barack, I Didn’t Do It for This’: An Homage to Andrew Goodman
“leaving the church”
He needs the church to prove his “blackness”. Black Americans’ gripes against America always go back to slavery and civil rights marches. Obama’s ancestors were never slaves nor civil rights marchers. How could he convince voters in his district to vote for him? He needed the minister to be elected in his district. He’ll be a traitor if he threw the minister under the bus now.
Frankly, it is naive to believe a politician. A politician’s priority is always power and money: power to extract money from you to “earmark” for those who deserve your money. E.g. U of Chicago Hospital where his wife doubled her salary just before a million dollar was earmarked for the Hospital.
It’s really not a politician’s fault if you woke up one day and saw his true nature. It’s not his fault if you believed him to be your savior. You should have known better.
