Obama Poor Choice For First Black President

[From article]
Obama has charisma and charm, but in terms of character, values, experience and understanding, he is no Jackie Robinson. In addition to those deficiencies, Obama became the first person in U.S. history to be elected to the highest office in the land while having a long history of associations with people who hate our nation, such as the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for 20 years, who preached that blacks should sing not "God bless America" but "God damn America." Then there's Obama's association with William Ayers, formerly a member of the Weather Underground, an anti-U.S. group that bombed the Pentagon, U.S. Capitol and other government buildings. Ayers, in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attack, told a New York Times reporter, "I don't regret setting bombs. ... I feel we didn't do enough."
[. . .]
But there's one excuse black people can make; we can claim that Obama is not an authentic black person but, as The New York Times might call him, a white black person.

Exploiting Civil Rights For Business Purposes

Legislatures and courts are businesses run by and for politicians and lawyers. Now baseball will be a business to benefit children of civil rights leaders. What justifies "transferring" the legacies of Jackie Robinson and Dr. King, Jr. to a taxpayer subsidized for profit business? It is not only politicians that have no shame exploiting the work of good men for their own mercenary purposes.

[From article]
"It's fitting with the legacy of Jackie Robinson essentially transferring to the Mets; what better place to have African-American ownership than with the Mets," [TV executive Larry] Meli said, noting that Major League Baseball has no African-American owners.
[. . .]
"Martin Luther King Jr. died for the common man to do better in his life," [TV executive Larry] Meli said. "That sort of legacy is going to take hold here."
