In this video clip, a little boy asks Barack Obama, “why don’t people like you?” Anyone who attended Obama’s town hall meetings in the past knows that the questions are either pre-arranged or previewed beforehand to make sure that there are no surprises.
The Obama camp gets a fail for this one.
I don’t see this as a fail..it could have been pre arranged so that he could address it in a form of an answer instead of sounding like he was whining if addressed directly
We as black folks destroy our own people. Therefore, the whiteman doesn’t have to do anything but sit backand watch. when will we get over our self hatred ?????? I guess to do that, we have to identify the problem
That was corny. And kids shouldn’t be used like that. I think balloon boy’s parents are finding that out. ROFL
can’t lie but Obama is always on point and his response was great
“It’s all politics”

I LOVE YOU MR. PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello All. Missmiami, you’re right on target when you speak of hate. Black folks don’t love themselves that’s why so many are so unhappy and bitter, often making bad choices in life. Whether the question was prearranged or not, which I doubt, it was a very valid and needed question. We have Americans praying that Obama dies of brain cancer, how hateful and cruel is that? How can real Christians pray for such such evil? As for the boy, his mother was on Tom Joyner’s show this morning and she said he’d asked her why so many people want bad things to happen to our first black president. Sandra, I hope someday you have to eat every negative word you’ve ever spewed about our President.
The little boy is cute and genuine in his purpose being there. It’s a moment that will live with him forever and hopefully encourage him in his studies.
As MissMiami said “It’s all Politics”

word for word how i feel.
@Iscream, your book is here. I am so excited.
@PA hairston, oh believe what goes around comes around, when all you dish out is hate, that is what you will get in return. He answered that very well, remember guys he was captain of the debate team at Harvard, Obama ain’t easy.
