Then, Neutral, give me some specific words or action by President Obama which actually indicates he feels that one race is superior to others or another. What he said about martin cannot be interpreted by anyone as an indication that president Obama feels one race is superior to others. What President Obama saaid about Martin could be interpreted as a feeling or nelief that at times blacks are treated as an inferior race. But, absolutely nothing he said can be interpreted as believing or even feeling one race is superior to others. The fact that anyone would make that claim about the President would indicate their own feeling of racial superiority. And, that's what racism is all about.

I never know if you're playing stupid or just are Colo. You should know as well as I what Obi has said and I'll not waste my time looking for his words.
I could paraphrase but then you would start a game.

In other words you once again spewed an asinine assertion which you cannot support. SOP

The writer makes the point that it is not overt racism, that the messages "dog whistle" are designed to stir racial animosity and suspicion without actually saying it.

Is there an example where Obama has said that Caucasians have been treated inferior or discriminated against? I can't recall a single incident.

Do using the terms whitey, honkey, ghost qualify too?

That racism exists and is practiced across all racial lines yet the focus of liberals is on racism against blacks.

does not indicate any belief in the superiority of one race over another. And that is what racism really is.
