The muck chucking that we are seeing is going a little to far but I still think the current President is better for the middle class hands down. I don't think Romney cares for anyone making less than $100k.

That is kind of a no brain-er, the one that cares about the people more than the corporations.

The country is suffering from a lack of demand. Obama is the only candidate for president that will tackle the lack of demand. The other guy thinks that lowering the rich guys taxes will somehow permit the unemployed to boost demand.

A sure fire fact is that Mitt Romney's policies aren't better for anyone making less than 40,000 annually. Those people have a guaranteed tax raise if that is the case. But back to the African-American community, since there are black people who make more than that, I don't think a man who tries to appeal to young African-Americans by referring to himself as M-I-Double Tizzle is very good for that community, I mean, he just blantantly stereotyped them right then and there!

the black unemployment rate under Odumba is higher than at any other time in history. The children born out of wedlock is higher than any other time in history (70%). Odumba's stance on gay marriage is ass backward to the majority of blacks. Time to stop sipping the libtard koolaid.

Interesting concept... Oppression means the systematic; socially supported mistreatment and exploitation of a group or category of people by anyone. (Wikipedia).

If he's put policies in place to help people, how is he oppressing them? That only comes about due to EXTREME right wing policies (not everyone is the same). Correct me if I'm wrong has the ever mentioned Welfare and increasing funding for it? Or has the president just focused on making sure people can afford healthcare when they need it most regardless of past medical history? Doesn't that benefit the majority and not the minority? I think you're comment is a little misguided... Please try again.

Mitt Romney

Trick question. The correct answer is neither. Romney probably doesn't know a thing about what the afro american community needs. President Obama talks a good game but has 15% unemployment to show the black community as a result of his policies.

Trick answer. Again incorrect, the 14 % unemployment in the Black community is not the result of Obama Policies. The results of Obama's policies is that it is not worse. It is the results of inequality, George W. Bush's destructive job destroying policies and current Republican obstructionism toward job creation.

They advocate for high unemployment and lack of job creation as a means of defeating Obama. Mitch McConnell reiterates the fact every chance he gets that the Republicans only goal/job is to make Obama a one term president and unemployment,the economy and nothing else important or positive matters.

It seems to me that McConnell SHOULD be thrown out of Congress for his actions/inactions. He is supposed to work for the people, all the people and he plainly states that he has no intention of doing anything but jeopardizing everyone, because he can not tolerate a black man in the White House. What can be done against McConnell, Boehner and those who flat out refuse to work to help the country? I do not know this answer, but seems to me there should be one... help? :)

I could not imagine what would happen if the shoe was on the other foot. The only thing I can think of is that we get to the polls and succeed in taking back the House of Congress. We also need to at least maintain the Senate if we don't get a super majority.

Voting and winning in the next election is the only solution I can foresee. The Republicans already know this is the key to Democratic success. That is the reason they are using every despicable means available to them in order to suppress the vote and to disenfranchise people who are likely to vote against them..our work is cut out for us.

I agree, we need to get out the vote, as hard as we can. The voter games the GOP are playing right now, are so ludicrous, and have been proven to have no basis at all. But they will continue and their flock of morons are so filled with fear and hate, they just fall for all of this garbage.

But, I still think, McConnell has to have done enough to warrant his own impeachment. Can a senator or congressman be impeached?

It seems to me that McConnell, Eric Cantor, John Boehner and whatever other Republicans in leadership positions in the House and Senate have acted in a treasonous and traitorous manner with their obstructionism of the greater good for this country's well being for partisan gain. It seems to me that if they can impeach the president, the same or some form of punishment could be done to them. It has been done before.

I heartily agree! In fact, I think it is treasonous for any Senator or Congressman to sign a pledge to special interest groups and people like Grover Norquist. I think it is in direct violation of their oath of office pledge to the United States citizens.

It is not a result of his policies, we still have the GOP economic policies of G.W. Bush in place due to GOP obstruction.

President Obama had total control of the government for two years. Democrats controlled Congress for two years under W. They don't escape blame just because you feel like they are on your team. There are plenty of bad decisions, bad politicians and bad policy to be found in both parties. End result? We suffer.

You guys always bring up that same point, despite even being told about the blue-dog Democrats anyway! Blue-Dog Democrats have all signed Grover Norquist's tax pledge. They sided with the GOP on ending the Bush tax cuts. Considering how many times you conservative have had to be reminded of that, you would think you were all lacking any brain in your heads at all.
