This idea is often at the core of “hate crimes” legislation where the only people allegedly who can be bigoted are whites. It matters not if a non-white seriously injures a white person – no additional concern is noted.
The truth for Obama, and his cohorts is irrelevant. That is, it does not matter that Obama had white family members who held slaves and has no connection to those blacks in America who are descended from slaves.
It is incredible that Obama is treated with any expertise on issues involving race since he has such a biased built in viewpoint.
History makes no difference to the politically correct bureaucrats who will form the foundation of an Obama administration. Whites must be punished since they allegedly benefit from a racist system and because they “look like” what slave holders used to look like.
No similar unfair treatment is routinely offered by Jews against the millions of German Americans, or the English by the Irish or Turks by Armenians.
Another sickening thing about Obama and the politically correct peoples who run much of academia and the Democratic party is that they feel free to distort and lie about history. Thus, someone whose father came to the United States from Kenya in the 1960s to study for a doctorate, should be given some preferential treatment in applying for a school above and beyond the poor kid from West Virginia.
It has become completely acceptable on college campuses, in popular magazines and on televisions for whites to be “lectured” with the paraphrased attacks of things like “you put us in slavery” you tried to commit genocide against us.
Michelle Obama is less careful to disguise her true feelings about “whites” and Americans. An interesting read is her college thesis. Of course, without even fully reading the entire thesis, it is easy to understand a basic point – that some blacks (about 25 years ago) did not really feel part of the Princeton community.
Without quickly asserting that it is due to “racism” it probably is best to just understand who the rich people at Princeton are – basically “snobs.” If you do not have the same vacation plans, a pedigree from a top-notch private high school, and do not speak the same way these people speak – you simply are not going to be fully accepted. Not only blacks face that kind of challenge, poor whites and working class people in general all face that fact.
When I was younger, I grew up in a very wealthy town with parents who moved between economic middle class and economic lower middle class. With some people, I really did not fit in – I did not regularly go to the Caribbean or Europe – nor did my parents belong to a country club.
When these people “know” what you are really like, they sometimes will make attacks on those less wealthy people. Those people will simply not usually “make it” in the elite circles. Still receiving a Princeton degree, no matter what your skin color, is a certain door opener.
Michelle Obama had the added negative matter to deal with in that she was assumed to have lower test scores than white students. Of course, if you get special treatment to gain admission (but maybe a good friend with much greater academics does not) some of those admitted on merits will resent your special treatment.
Simply nothing can be done about this – intelligent people can very easily show their mastery about a subject that a candidate with lesser skills does not possess.
