Hope and change my ass.

President Obama is going to have to do a whole lot more than promise to make things better for young blacks under his new “My Brother’s Keeper” initiative, because 71 percent of voters in a new poll say life for the group is the same or worse than before he came into office.

Rasmussen Reports reveals that just 16 percent of likely voters believe life for young blacks has improved since Obama’s 2008 election, while 22 percent say it has gotten worse. Some 49 percent said nothing has changed.

Among blacks, some of the results are worse, with just 11 percent believing life has gotten better for African American youths over the past five years. On the slightly positive side, only 8 percent believe it has gotten worse.

But if they asked a follow up question they will say that life has not gotten better for them because of the Republican Congress, the Tea Party and the Rich.

Obama got elected on the promise of Hope and Change. It is on his back, not those you mentioned. He has failed to deliver and he is responsible.

So then either Obama has delivered on his promise and has made significant changes or not.

Which one is it?

It's looking like not.

Must be the ones who got phones.

Then perhaps many on this forum should stop complaining. Business as usual.

I don't disagree with you. I am just stating what they likely believe.

Why would you assume many on this forum would be against black youth prospering and improving their life situation? Are you a racist? I want all youth to improve, but the welfare state being run by Obama and his p@ss poor managing of the economy are preventing the black youth and all youth from prospering. He is a false prophet.

98% of them plan on voting OBAMA 2016.

Oh, he has delivered change, but definitely not hope.

That is your opinion. Frankly, I think Presidents can do very little to change the economy. Welfare also does very little to change people's fortunes.

I think the biggest problem I see with most people on this forum is that they give him way too much credit.

They criticize him for not making the kinds of changes that no president is capable of changing while at the same time criticizing him for changes that he had no hand in.

Fitbud is the most racist person on here... Lazy Tom is in a close second...

Who spouted hope, change, and no deeper debt? Who won the election on those words?

Whomever elected Obama because they actually thought that he was going to get them a job or improve their situation is delusional.

The guy is just the President. He isn't God.
