Shelby Steele on President-Elect Obama

Phoenix26FAJKA Says:

May 19, 2012 - Will somebody out there please tell me what in the hell is a 'race card,' what does it look like, what the hell does it do? I am so Fed- up with hearing so called smart people of all skin pigment tones, talk about this damned ellusive fict-damned-ticious race card. What the hell does cards have to do with discrrimination, prejudice, and all the unfair, unequal treatment of darker pigmentation appearance skinned people by those with little/ no pigmentation appearance skinned? How's that?

May 7, 2012 - A lot of people with Law Degrees don't practice law, what's your point? And what is the exact Job Description for a President? There is none. The best president in America's history, was also one of its youngest. Lastly, Obama won, because George W. Bush fucked up so bad. Obama also won by way of more than just black votes..in fact, the majority of his votes were from non-blacks.

May 1, 2012 - Shelby if you're going to criticize Obama focus on the fact the he is basically a pawn for globalism. But if you were going to vote for McCain who is just as much a globalist (pushing many non-constitutional bills) and you're really just another ...

KingDingaLing090 Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - So why does he have so many names? Why does he have so many social security numbers? Why does have have a forged birth certificate and fraudulent selective services card? Barry Soetoro? Or Harrison J. Bounel? Malik Zulu Shabazz? Pick one.

Jan 15, 2012 - In the other video, he bullcraps at the end about Powell. Powell doesn't have loyalty.

MyTotalRemedy Says:

Jan 15, 2012 - No. Powell is a liberal-leftist who loves Obama because they agree on so much. On The Issues also identifies his policies as liberal, since he's so scared of conservative views. They're both terrible.

MyTotalRemedy Says:

Jan 15, 2012 - What have you been smoking?

NitajView Says:

Jan 2, 2012 - As a not white person myself, I could not be more agree with Mr Steele than I could be with anyone else's views on race.

JimBowie1133 Says:

Dec 28, 2011 - "chose to be black"?? Dr. Steele must understand that in the usa a man with any African heritage is identified as black. There's no choice. No one of black heritage is ever accepted as a member of the white in-group.

Aphoresis Says:

Dec 19, 2011 - Well...you could have added that Barack Obama has proven that you don't need to be senile to be incompetent.

stephenabm Says:

Oct 8, 2011 - Obama has proven to be an elitist / insider and has been a horrible president.

Sep 14, 2011 - Intellectual rubbish by a slick opportunist, who's degreed and has an excellent authoritative disposition. Actually his intent is working even though he wrote a worthless book (which is a huge joke!), but he is making a hunger group of anger men within the popular culture feel better while profiting. At 13:20 he begins to tell you what's in his heart and the struggle that has perverted his mind

1879gym Says:

Sep 14, 2011 - : Dr Steele knows full well that Obama's Mother would have been well received and embraced in Rev Wright's church. Steele knows better but the truth doesn't fit his hype. Don't be naive listing to this nonsense.

jollysincere Says:

Sep 14, 2011 - The ward connelly's and shelby Steels's of the world are the one with deep inner demons and only God's knows what else. Here is a man who openly admits to voting for a senile fool like McCain, and placing a complete idiot like Sarah Palin a heartbeat away from the presidency. Need i say more.

Jul 29, 2011 - you should not be going around underminding Obama-He's making changes that people disdain, simply because they will die before they allow these changes to come to pass. You just want to discredit and undermind a man who is trying to change things for the better of the poor! your a jealous hater! is what u r!!

charlene12341234 Says:

Jul 29, 2011 - this is an "uncle richard" if I've evr seen one. Obama is a Man of many perspectives-unlike what I can saY for most people. He dosen't have to prove one of "who he is" He's many! He's many on both sides! This is what makes him unique! He's not ONe Sided!

slyrollin60crip Says:

Jun 29, 2011 - The only reason blacks elected obama is because we want our 40 acres, he wont get our vote in mass next time because blacks who understand what's going on want their own land, so we can live outside of the white mans laws

HanStanwell Says:

Jun 26, 2011 - Obama was the best choice...for destroying America

uk6strings Says:

Jun 17, 2011 - "'Barak Obama: The first black man in the White House' - and that's it." Wow. Why couldn't Steele have been asked that earlier in the interview? I really wish he could have expanded on that thought a little bit more!

NewYorkCityUSA7 Says:

Jun 10, 2011 - LOL, white guilt has nothing to do with Obama being President. Americans voted for Obama because he was the best choice. Anyone who voted for old senile McCain and that dumb broad Palin who doesn't know her elbow from her asshole is an idiot. Why don't people who talk about race and the Presidency ever discuss how the first 43 Presidents were all white males. I know, that was all just a coincidence and had absolutely nothing to do with race.....

gkraychik Says:

Apr 29, 2011 - Thanks for sharing. I think Shelby's insights into the psychology of Obama are interesting and accurate.

soverysneaky Says:

Apr 14, 2011 - And now they're wishing they hadn't.

UCBfan1 Says:

Apr 6, 2011 - If you really believe what you say here, then you are delusional. White America has suffered from the sad sickness of white guilt for decades. The fact that you say that you stopped watching after six minutes says volumes. White Americans have had to suffer with assumptions based on the color of their skin for decades. White guilt is not the only reason white Americans voted for Obama, but it is a major factor. Especially with baby boomers. 

IWubYooz Says:

Mar 12, 2011 - Stopped watching at about 6 minutes. White people didn't have to prove they were not racist. If you're not racist, you won't have to PROVE anything- It'll become self evident. Yeah, right... "Thankful" that I'm not being "prejudged a racist". Get off my screen.

rjamonanthony Says:

Feb 13, 2011 - Shelby Steele: "...as a black..." Since when is black a noun?
