Obama’s 1995 Race Baiting Interview: White Executives Who Don’t Want to Pay Taxes to Inner City Children for Them to Go to School
Posted on October 23, 2008
Take a listen to Jeremiah Wright Jr.
Obama admits his Redistribution of Wealth is to SAVE the African American community SO HE CAN ENSURE HIS OWN SALVATION! (and Our Countries Salvation) He compares the plight of African Americans to the ethic genocide’s of Bosnia and Africa. He blames all of African American’s problems on “ONE GROUP” who suppresses them. And He says WHITE people don’t want their taxes to help black children.
Actually he doesn’t say black children, he says “inner city children”.
Full context:
I think that whether you are a white executive living out in the suburbs, who doesn’t want to pay taxes to inner-city children for them to go to school, or you’re an inner-city child who doesn’t want to take responsibility for keeping your street safe and clean, both of those groups have to take some responsibility if we’re going to get beyond the kinds of divisions that we face right now.
What if McCain had used an example of black people not wanting to pay taxes to help white kids?

I didn’t listen to it but a presumed transcript is here: eyeonbooks.com/ibp_obama.php
Note that that was linked to by the HuffPost, so if there’s a real bombshell in there I missed it.
If anyone wants to consider doing something that would actually be effective, see my name’s link.
I have certainly seen some White conservatives that play into that stereo type but then I have seen some Black liberals who play into the opposing stereo type. Sadly it is probably the nature of the beast.
Obama failed in Chicago as a community organizer. The inner city dropout rate for African-Americans in Chicago is 61%. Since he was not effective in dealing with Chicago’s problems, why should we believe he can be a leader of our nation. The whole issue of personal responsibility and family values is ignored.
First, Obama thinks salvation is linked to him and money and fairness. That’s the direct opposite of what Christ said. Second, he assumes, similar to the “It takes a village” mantra, that we all want to invest in the communities in which he believes we should invest. If a company does poorly, as we’ve lately seen, won’t investors sell off? Well, if we keep investing in the same minority “schemes” such as those fostered by Jesse Jackson and his ilk, and we don’t see the fruit of those investments (which we didn’t choose, but were chosen for us without our consent), shouldn’t we have the right to request that such investments be stopped? There are students at the local community college, both black and white, who get Ds and we’re still giving them Pell Grants and other forms of financial assistance. There’s no more merit-based assistance and there’s no more accountability or credibility on the part of those receiving the aid.
I’m tired of seeing money from the government coffers poured into programs that don’t work. I’d rather see them poured into programs that do work. I’m tired of hearing statistics about Blacks that have no basis in reality. If they’re losing jobs, look who is replacing them. It’s not whites, it’s those who can’t legally produce proof of citizenship. At least they want to work and work hard. We’ve allowed the Black community to be lazy and then scream that it’s unfair.
obvious hatchet edit job– weak attempt to start a controversy. so ignorant, doesn’t even understand the arguments that are included in the edited version that actually counters claims that this is racist against white people.
he argues for common ground between whites and black in the full clip; specifically, how the fate of the white person living in the suburbs is tied to the fate of the black kid in an underperforming urban school district.
and he says essentially that turmoil on africa CANNOT be blamed on white people, i.e., colonialism, and is instead a result of ethnic conflict, i.e., black on black repression, like that in bosnia and in gang-torn los angeles, i.e, black on black and brown on brown violence.
but, if the editing style is any indication, intellectual subtlety is clearly not a priority for the manufacturers of this desperate, faux controversy.
Might as well give 5 grand to the McCain Campaign it’ll be cheaper than what will happen to your taxes. As a Canuck we’ve had obamas running things here for decades there is never enough money. There can never be enough! Once people know you are giving it away free they put their feet up and wail. I want more,…. Then you get more lazybones.
Maybe if the thugs in the inner cities were less likely to sell drugs do b&e’s spray graffitti all over hells half acre, maybe they would be better off.
But no it’s always the white guys fault!!!!
“The inner city dropout rate for African-Americans in Chicago is 61%.”
Here, here for Obamy
You are saying that he is talking about white againist blacks… it is not..
The rich holding down the workers who are the new slaves….McCain thinks 250,000 a year is middle class no way…they are rich…
Presidents of companys making millions of dollars to be fired and 1000’s of employees at poverty level shame on you guys in the corparations……you have caused so many republicans to leave and I am one of them…
This is a matter of greed at the top
all of us down here knows what the trickle down theory means….We have to work harder and longer for less…so you can get more…
he is for the majority of us not the few…

Here’s the section of that interview, copied from the full transcript at eyeonbooks.com:
Suggesting that this was indisputably a reference to black-on-black crime ignores the reality happening at the moment. At the time of the interview (August 9, 1995), Bosnia was the locale of fierce fighting between Serbian forces versus UN “peacekeepers” trying to head off further instances of ethnic cleansing in Kosovo. What did “Los Angeles” mean at the time? I don’t know what was specifically going on that year, but three years previous were the Rodney King riots, and the O.J. Simpson trial was still going on.
Before suggesting categorically that Obama was absolving or blaming white people — which he did a lot of in his second book, which is named after a Rev. Wright sermon in which the black liberationist preacher spoke of “White folks greed run[ning] a world in need” — more context is needed. Obama is very careful and artful with his words, and slipped up when he spoke the honest truth to Joe the Plumber. He rarely says anything that can’t be taken at least two different ways. As John McCain says, “It’s like trying to nail Jell-o to the wall.”
Whould you like to Be blamed for anything that you didn’t do..
no he is not talking about doing things for his race now….
I’ll bet you make well over 250,000 a year,
I’ll bet you pay a much less percentage of taxes than most of us do…
I know you guys are just trying to instill fear in americans…
We will survive no matter who wins….
the only thing is if mccain is willing to
help the true middle class——
under 75,000 a year…We all wish he had something for us but he doesn’t…

Here’s what Obama told the interviewer:
Personally, I aspire to someday make $75K a year, but I don’t want to stop there. Obama has let it be known that he wants to enrich me by confiscating money from people who have worked to build a business. No freaking thanks. For years, liberals have championed welfare, saying “We don’t want a handOUT, we want a hand UP!” With the Clinton/Gingrich era welfare reforms, that had some resonance. Obama wants to go back to a handOUT. That’s “progressive?” Bottom line is this: HE WANTS TO MAKE BUSINESS IN GENERAL LESS PROFITABLE. Remember how Michelle, in the Demo primary campaign, was speaking to young people about not using their college education to go for big money professions (never mind that she hauled in over $900K in 2006).
What are you, twelve years old? It’s a Presidential Election, junior! And unlike most campaigns, there IS something to be afraid of this time around! A guy whose mentors are revolutionary socialists may become the Chief Executive of this country. Do some maddog research about what William Ayers believes — that believes, not “believed.” He’s NOT “reformed.” And Obama has flat-out lied to everyone who has asked him about his relationships with Ayers, Dohrn, Rezco, and Khalidi.
IMHO, his grandmother is probably not as ill as he says she is (if she is at all) — he hiding out so 1) he won’t have to answer questions 2) can portray as cruel and insensitive anyone who dares ask them anyway.
Excuse me, maybe I fell asleep during a Constitutional congress and missed it — when did the job description of “President of the United States” get confused with that of Santa Claus?
lame.
This hack job of editing didn’t even get a full sentence. You might as well just take individual words out of multiple videos and create your own racist message like a refridgerator magnet game.
This hack job reflects more race baiting by the person making the video than anything else.
There are always the kool aid drinkers with a beef against someone else for their situation. These tools always blame someone else, guess you are rich aand insinuttae that is a bad thing, no responsibility for their actions or lack thereof. The Great Society ploy of the JFK/LBJ era is reparations enough, when Gingrich & Clinton cleaned up the welfare/socialist system up a little everyone raved that Clinton gave us the best economy. Not realizing he raised taxes and cut back military which weakeneded us. The socialist America haters like Ayers, Wright and others associated or direclty calling themselves Muslims are supporting Obama. These socialist have done a good job of infiltrating our schools, colleges, governments and media to the point were are children are so poorly educated they can’t read of write. Obama is the perfect Talking Head for this America hater with an angry & ignorant voting block spoon fed lies 24/7.
God Bless our country America stand up for her and us.
NO Obama bin Biden Ever
McCain Palin in 2008. Let’s Rebuild a Real New Conservative party going forward. No more moderates, appeasers, fair weather types like Powell and others. They have weakened us badly. Time to clean house of them at Obamas expense.
Obama isn’t trying to be Robin Hood and take from the rich to give to the poor. He wants to make sure the people making over $250,000 a year pay more in taxes than they do now. Why is that so bad?
just remember, it was Obama that said he could no longer disown his association with Rev. Wright than he could the black community. Two days later he and his family were no longer members of the good Rev. church and he no longer associates with him or calls him friend. Discarded when he was no longer of use to him - should the black community be worried?? Should America be worried?? Read all of the information and vote informed.
White,Black,Rich,Poor, the issue should not be race or class. There will always be those who have less and want more.
Our country has always provided more opportunity for people who really want to succeed to do so.
The biggest issue here is the REALITY, that a large number of people just don’t get. Work does not materialize without wealth. Obama’s statement that 98% of small businesses make less than $250,000 is correct, because it includes all of the small businesses that don’t have employees. In effect a lemonade stand is a small business. Two-thirds of small business profits are earned in households making more than $250,000 per year, and which have created 80% of the jobs in our country. These are the small businesses that will suddenly be taxed at 52% including imcome tax and payroll taxes. These are the companies who already are under pressure to cut back due to the slowed economy, and who will be forced to cut back when their taxes are raised. Tax revenues will go down along with the number of jobs in the market. The situation for those wanting jobs and more income will become worse along with the case for these small businesses. JOBS ARE NEVER CREATED FROM THE BOTTOM UP! If it were so, then Mexico would be thriving. A large businesses are forced to take jobs overseas, due to punitive tax policies, and small businesses are driven to be smaller, WE, ALL OF US, ARE GOING TO BE HURTING AND THEN THE RICH WILL NOT HAVE MONEY TO SHARE IF THEY WANTED TO!

But most people don’t care about the facts - they just care about their pride and position.
I am the journalist whose 1995 interview with Obama is used in the YouTube video, which uses quotes from interview selectively and misleadingly.
Please, whether you are pro- or anti-Obama, you should hear the entire interview, in its full context (or read a transcript, available free) at http://www.eyeonbooks.com/ibp_obama.php — then make up your own mind.
Shell,
“Obama isn’t trying to be Robin Hood and take from the rich to give to the poor. He wants to make sure the people making over $250,000 a year pay more in taxes than they do now. Why is that so bad”
If he taxes your boss or corporation any more than they already are you will be out of a job! We will all be out of jobs. More corporations will move overseas, or hand out more pink slips, or be forced to close their doors!
