Michelle Obama’s Writings Display Disturbing Racism Americans must ask: ‘Do we really want this woman in the White House’? 32; By Pat Shannan Just what kind of “change” is Barack Obama offering and just how much influence has his wife, Michelle had over him in their married life the past two decades? It appears that Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama does not look into a crowd of Obama supporters and see Americans. She sees black people and white people, eternally conflicted with one another. In her senior thesis at Princeton University, Michelle LaVaughn, the future wife of the Democratic presidential candidate, stated that America was a nation founded on “crime and hatred.” Moreover, she stated that whites in America were “ineradicably racist.” The 1985 thesis, entitled Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community, was written under her maiden name, Michelle LaVaughn. Michelle Obama writes that the path she chose by attending Princeton would likely lead to her “further integration and/or assimilation into a white cultural and social structure that will only allow me to remain on the periphery of society, never becoming a full participant.” Not only does she see separate black and white societies in America, but emphatically elevates black over white in her world. As first lady, would she insist the White House be painted black? That’s been a standard joke in this venue since the civil rights movement of the 1960s, but this next ominous quote from her thesis suggests that she would in fact urge her husband toward just such an extreme position. “There was no doubt in my mind that as a member of the black community, I am obligated to this community and will utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit the black community first and foremost.” She seems to justify those feelings with what she claims to see on the other side of the issue: “Predominantly white universities like Princeton are socially and academically designed to cater to the needs of the white students, comprising the bulk of their enrollments.” Michelle added in her thesis that to “whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, [I] will always be black first.” However, it was reported by a fellow black classmate, “if those ‘whites at Princeton ‘ really saw Michelle as one who always would ‘be black first,’ it seems that she gave them that impression.” Michelle Obama’s poll of black alumni concludes that other black former students at Princeton do not share her obsession with blackness. But rather than celebrate, she is horrified that black alumni identify with our common American culture more than they value the color of their skins. “I hoped that these findings would help me conclude that despite the high degree of identification with whites as a result of the educational and occupational path that black Princeton alumni follow, the alumni would still maintain a certain level of identification with the black community. However, these findings do not support this possibility,” she wrote. Most black alumni ignored her racist questionnaire. Only 89 students responded, out of 400 who were asked for input. The thesis provides a trove of Mrs. Obama’s thoughts and world view seen through a race-based prism. For a potential first lady, this is a very divisive view that would do untold damage to race relations in this country in a Barack Hussein Obama administration. During this presidential election year in which the term “transparency” has been frequently bandied about, candidates have buried a number of potentially revealing documents and papers. In Hillary Rodham Clinton’s case, there’s been a clamoring for tax records, White House memos and other material the candidate’s team has chosen to keep from release. The 96-page, 1985 Princeton thesis, restricted from release by the school’s Mudd Library, has also been the subject of recent scrutiny. Commentator Jonah Goldberg remarked on National Review Online, “A reader in the know informs me that Michelle Obama’s thesis is unavailable until Nov. 5, 2008, at the Princeton library. I wonder why.” “Why a restricted thesis?” asked Pastor Louis Lapides on his website, Thinking Outside the Blog. “Is the concern based on what’s in the thesis? Will Michelle Obama appear to be too black for white America or not black enough for black America?” Will an Obama administration really offer constructive “change” or just an intellectually refined racism? Pat Shannan is the assistant editor of American Free Press. He has been working in the alternative news business for more than 30 years.

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men." -- Samuel Adams (1722-1803)‡
"If you are so hostile to whites, why did you marry a man who is half white? That makes all of your kids one-quarter white, and some of them are pretty light-skinned. Would you care to address this?"
I am not just voting for Barack Obama, I am working on his campaign locally. So what's your point or question? Do you really have a reason to ping? No, I thought so. ;-D I'm sure having mixed race kids and grand kids as I do is enough for someone like you to dislike me. So if you are irrational to dislike others for such a minor point as the color of their skin or ethnic origin, who cares what else you have to say? I am amused by your posts, nothing more. You are not worth getting excited over. I support the human race, and no one is better or worse then anyone else is merely on the basis of such a minor point as skin color.
Environmentalist, even to the extreme: check. Marxist: check. Politically correct on race: check. Supporting Obama: check. Tell us again how "liberated" you are, when your views are uniformly consistent with what is being taught in schools as religion today?
Rush, the sponsor of the "Barack the Magic Negro" song, was howling about the racism of Obama's wife today. So doesn't Reverent Wright scare the goobers anymore?
.
Are you supporting Obama?
My son who is about the same racial make-up as Barack Obama works indoors and I have pictures of me and him after I spent most of my summer on a bicycle where I am much much darker then him. I am a quarter Puerto Rican and brown up real deeply, real fast when I spend time in the sun - which is hard to do when I stay in Oregon. I really like Negro women and find many of them incredibly fun, smart and sexy. Eventually we will see people on average much browner as bloodlines blend together in the United States. This is something that will happen quite naturally, and there is nothing wrong about that, nor bad. And you and I won't be around to see this so you are free to remain ignorant and myopic as long as you care to, and I can continue to be as informed and enlightened as I want to. So it goes.
I'm confused over how you can support black nationalism while rejecting white nationalism. The time for white people to shrink back from words such as "racists!!" is over. I don't dislike you or your family, but I do disapprove of the double standard you impose on white people (no organizing along racial lines for white people to the exclusion of other races). Please correct me if I'm wrong.
"There was no doubt in my mind that as a member of the white community, I am obligated to this community and will utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit the white community first and foremost."<-- I bastardized Michelle Obama's quote ;-)
I don't listen, but his getting in front of this Hildabeast/Obama mess is funny.
I have nothing against anyone organizing and freely associating to celebrate or honor where they came from and who they are. I don't feel quite the same way if the group's purpose is to attack other people because they have done the same thing, or because the primary focus of the group is actually to go after other people, not to honor their linage. I am very proud of my Irish background and the attitude against Mexican immigrants rubs me quite the wrong way as I have always been a student of history, and know very well how badly my Irish ancestors were treated because so many moved here in the last two centuries. So on that point, I support advocacy to generate a rational and meaningful resolution to the problem of the influx of people from the South, but not if such actions denigrate, dehumanize and belittle others. Hope that give you the idea where I stand on that issue, because I sure am not offended by associations of people formed because of pride that emanates from who they are and where they came from.
Pretty much what the ADL says.
I'll vote for him over McCain, but I'm not ape shit over the guy. But I have this crushing sense of guilt that has gnawed at me since birth. I feel that I may be free of it if I do my part in electing a coon to the office of President.
.
You'll "vote" for him. Same thing. This explains your anti-Constitution party posts.
Is that the one running fundie preacher loon? I'd vote Bush a third term over that guy.
.
Dots, you're an Obama supporter. Doesn't that embarrass you at all?
Pretty much what allot of organizations say.
Especially the ADL, but the point is that you're more mainstream than you realize. Congratulations or something. You're fitting right in. Pop a top and flip on the telly. Just relax, it's all going your way.
No, and you're playing a very shallow posturing game here. Doesn't that embarrass you at all? I've been very clear on why I think the way I do and nobody has given me a rational reason to think otherwise. And your gassing on about what you and the mouse in your pocket think about it is a non starter.
.
I don't agree that my political opinions are consistent with mainstream education. I also am here to tell you I don't agree with your opinion about what my opinions and politics are. But thanks for sharing anyway.
You mean ILLEGAL Mexican immigrants, right?
No worries. I really just wanted to clarify that you were an Obama supporter. Thanks.
I don't watch the glass tit of telly, nor do I listen to music with the best marketing efforts behind it or even get into a car. I bicycle or walk, read and write with pen and paper or the computer, and I read. I read allot. I also associate and work politically with like minded people. And have done so an awful long time. You are eager to try to button hole me, but considering how wrong your assumptions regarding who I am and what I do, you are already behind the power curve when you try.
You're actually uncomfortable with the idea that you might be more conventional than you would like to think. I think it's funny.
Yes, I know. Button holing, pigeon holing and Enemies lists - and all that. And it's not just McCain. It goes all the way back to Nixon droids. Way before Freepers started snapping pictures of people. Well, when AM Radio speaks, what are you going to do? Oh, I know, you don't let AM Radio influence you, you just robotically spew the talking points ... on cue - and then shut out any contrary information. We understand, almost everyone here has spent considerable time on FR.
.
What talking points have I mentioned? I'm just surveying the damage.
The Rush talking points and positions that you took above. Why try to hide it? We can see it.
.
Many of the highest ranked government people in this country have committed far worse crimes then being unmindful of immigration law when they seek employment. I put this into a perspective you apparently do not. I also grade on a harsh curve any advocacy against something very strongly that does not dialog with those with whom they take issue and who does not respect the human dignity of those they take issue with. I know what it is like to lose your job because if illegal immigration. I enjoyed working in the woods until my wage dropped and the companies I've worked for go out of business because they were consistently outbid by concerns who only hired illegals. But I have also worked elbow to elbow with these folks, know their families and have had actual and meaningful human association with these people whom you loathe with such passion. I would rather lose my job then sense of human compassion and respect for others. The former is a temporary and resolvable problem, the latter talks about a corruption of the heart and soul that is far to deep rooted a cancer into one's soul to ever take lightly. I am concerned about illegal immigration too, but I want those here illegally to be part of the dialog too, and I want them treated with human dignity and respect. I also feel this must be reciprocal too, and that everybody involved in this controversy has ethical responsibilities they cannot shirk regardless how badly they feel they have been damaged by the issue or in what way they feel this has happened.
She isn't bad looking, but a little too big for being hot. Not too many 6 foot women with big bones are hot.
God is always good!
No. Actually I know all too well how hard it is to know someone well with the scant information you have to work with. So be as amused as you wish to be, it is no skin off of my back.
She probably didn't know Obama was half white until she had her first kid. That's when the shit hit the fan.
God is always good!
Liar. You don't supporting the human race or you wouldn't be supporting the racist Obama.
God is always good!
All I know is what you write, which follows right along the leftist line being touted by public schools, churches, and environmentalist organizations. What do you do when a life of rebellion transforms into the "establishment?"
I knew the Democrats would eventually get around to rolling back original sin. For those who don't know what I'm talking about - the phrase 'original sin' is a christian term that refers to the fact that people are very flawed & imperfect, made that way by their creator. all except for Michelle Obama of course.
Revelation 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and [see] thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
Mike votes for anything that will help destroy the Christian culture of the USA. His Wiccan religion is his first priority.
God is always good!
Hasn't all the racists stuff come from Wright and the Republican Pundits, e.g., "Barack the Magic Negro"? I don't recall Obama himself as ever having said anything racist. Can you give me an example?
.
This feels a bit over the top. Why don't you take a second look at this post and see if you might want to edit it. Look at it with the idea that you don't want to come off as sounding hysterical.
.
It's mainstream to be anti-Christian, and FM is right there with the rest of them, just like you.
Exactly. I have been participating in boards like 4UM a long time, and I write to communicate with whom I am participating in the board with. Now, if you were with me when I am sitting around with the likes of John Zerzan - who is a friend of mine - and several of the staff members of Green Anarchy Magazine, you would get a far different take of me. That is all I am really pointing out to you, that you do know the me who writes here, but certainly not the person I am in my full spectrum of being. ;-) http://www.greenanarchy.org/index.php?action=radio
Even your language is now mainstream. It's so "normal" now to use New Age terminology. Get with the program. You're now a leader of the ordinary. Revel in it.
I woke up this morning and made my way to the kitchen. I thought of Kunta Kinte as I was stirring my oatmeal and fell to the floor with a spasm of agonizing guilt. I crawled to my computer and was barely able to made a $200 contribution to the Obama campaign before I passed out. Donating the money helped me recover and I've been able to make it through the rest of the day. So how did your day go?
.
Obama supports ethanol subsides, and he supports expanding them even. The ethanol subsidies have already caused a 300-400% increase in the prices of basic foods like corn, rice, soybeans, wheat over the last 7 years. The ethanol subsidies are uneconomical. It costs 1.29 calories worth of fossil fuels to both grow the corn and then turn the corn into ethanol that provides 1.0 calories worth of ethanol that is then mixed into the gasoline. The only reason its being mixed into the gasoline is because the government requires it. Obama wants to increase the requirement from 10% ethanol to 15%, then to 20% ethanol. The government pays $0.51 per gallon of ethanol produced. The ethanol wouldn't even be produced without that subsidy. The ethanol subsidy will kill tens of millions of people through starvation. But Obama's fighting evil whitey, so I guess its OK. They're the humanitarian ticket, they're for people, they want change and hope. If they support a eugenics program on the side, then we should ignore it and remember, its white people that are bad. its not Obama that wanted those ethanol subsidies, whitey made him do it.
Revelation 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and [see] thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
