From many of the responses of black men, he failed to retrieve their votes for Kamala Harris. Many of them thought Obama was disrespectful and were offended by his sense of entitlement to the black vote. IP: Logged |

He shamed these men, rather than trying to persuade them on the issues and it's backfiring. IP: Logged |

Obama also reminded people that Trump took credit for his economy.This was Obama, talking to other Black men. We see Trump insulting everyone who isn't going to vote for him, blaming them all in advance, for his loss. IP: Logged |

Power, ambition, wealth, and status are highly seductive and it takes those of a high caliber and strength who can be true to a purpose greater than themselves.
I believe Obama was blessed (or had accumulated good karma?) to be in a position to be a great leader, but he chose the lower path. He didn't live up to a higher calling. I wonder if this may be the root of his animosity toward President Trump, who has chosen a higher path in the face of overwhelming opposition and great personal cost. IP: Logged |

‘We’re Not Voting for Kamala’: Black Male Voters Slam Obama’s Shame Tactics for Not Supporting Harris quote: Former Georgia state Rep. Vernon Jones (R) called Harris “Madam Lock Up A Brother” and demanded an apology from Obama to black men, “effective immediately..."
quote: “Barack Obama … believes that black men should set aside our disagreements, set aside our grievances and just ‘take one for the team,’” the young conservative activist, 22, said in an X video.“Barack, we’ve been ‘taking one for the team,’ when it comes to supporting the Democrat Party, for decades. And what do we have to show for it? Our inner cities are destroyed, violent crime is up, we are living in poverty in far too many communities across this country,” Pearson argued.
