Another loyal reader is disappointed in Barack Obama’s apathetic response to the passing of pop icon Michael Jackson two weeks ago.

This is a letter, I sent to the White House that I wanted to share:
I am a little disappointed with President Obama right now regarding his lack of interest with one of the greatest musical icons ever. I am speaking of Michael Jackson. [Obama] recently stated in a recent interview yesterday that he was unaware that the black community was displeased with the fact that he has not taken time out to pay his respect appropriately.
Then he should start listening to the black radio stations a little more because people are displeased. The same passion that blacks had for rallying around his campaign are the very ones that are just as passionate about losing Michael Jackson. Sometime Mr. President, you have to stop being so “political” and be a little more real.. Stop getting your advice regarding the entertainment world from people like Oprah. Because she can be real clueless at times too. You lose mass points with me on this one Mr. President. Oh but good job on everything else you are doing so far.
