While I don't trust anything that comes out of FOX news, I too am disappointed with the Presidents' lack of racial analysis in his policy agenda. Michael Eric Dyson highlighted much of this in his talk at Delta Days this weekend and I think he hit the nail right on the head. President Obama is our president too, and we have a right to expect him to take our needs into consideration.
