Is Obama trying to get away with something by being Black

This is the title of a discussion started by a conservative over at Dicussionist. For those who haven't visited, just a taste of what you're missing. The poster seems to be dead serious.

Like... I don't think he's trying to get away with anything, but if it will make you feel better, we'll check his pockets when he leaves the White House.

It's all about finding a reasonable middle ground.

His 'Blackness' is benghazing all over the globe and you lefty, commie, anticolonial, traitors are covering up his Kenyan crimes.

So that has to give him some points. Unless his mother "consorted" with a black man.

Never mind.

of sitting around talking to yourself? For every hardcore wingnut, there's another person who's confused, misinformed or indifferent. Many are just clueless and believe the guys who make the most noise. That's generally the conservatives. Why would you pass up a chance to spread the good news about the Progressive agenda? This is the basis for Christianity and Tupperware, so we know it works. Right now some of these folks are getting all their misinformation from Faux news or Alex Jones. They need to hear from us.

Why bring that trash here, really?

We have our own problems with how people speak of and treat the President right here on DU, why would we want to go slumming for more?

That'd be a really dumb plan.

The only thing you can "get away with" by being black is saying the n-word. A privilege that many whites are verrrrrrrrrrrry jealous of.
