Black Americans Should be Outraged Against Obama

Black Americans should be outraged at the President to whom they gave over 95% of their vote.  With the recent announcement of a ridiculously sickening unemployment situation, it is clear that Obama could care less about the Black Americans who voted overwhelmingly for him.
After over half a decade in office, it is obvious that the President doesn’t have a clue as to how to build an economic climate so that the job creators – small businesses -- can expand and create jobs. 

An example of such an effort would be to work with Congress to support legislation that would eliminate the corporate income tax; eliminate specific debilitating regulations; approve the building of the Keystone pipelines; recognize that Obamacare is a failure; support the buying of health insurance across state lines; block grant Medicaid funds back to the states; and, in general, get the federal government out of the way of free market capitalism. 
It is odd that Obama consistently surround himself with white academic types who, like him, have never built a business; had to meet a payroll; and had to sign the front of a check rather than the back of one.  

These folks leave their tenured, six-figured cushion academic positions, pontificate about the economy for a couple of years, impress our naïve President, and then go back to their cushion jobs leaving the rest of us to wonder what all of this nonsense was about.   
Since the unemployment of Black folks have gotten worse under his Presidency, I think he needs to do something radically different. In essence he needs to forget trying to please white people and sincerely try to help the masses who gave their vote overwhelmingly to him. 

Instead of the white academic types, he should surround himself with Black Americans who have achieved significant success in this free market ca
pitalistic economy, for example, Earl Graves, Bob Johnson, Jamal Mashburn, Junior Bridgeman, Magic Johnson, Clarence Otis, and Donald Thompson to name a few. If you don’t recognize who these individuals are, I’ll just leave it to you to use your research skills and make your discovery.
These people ought to be an integral part of his advisory group with whom he should consult on a regular basis, and get ideas to formulate proposals for presentation to Congress.  

These individuals have created jobs and employed thousands of Black people. Get the federal government of the way and let them do what they do best. 

I just hope that the President don’t feel uncomfortable around strong Black men. Or maybe he has an inferiority complex.
