Icheoku says President Barack Obama can campaign all he wants, from now until November 7, but he will not a needle move in the direction of the Crooked One. First, he has since lost his mojo and the tingling feeling he once elicited on some americans including Icheoku is no longer there. Second, the Crooked Hillary Clinton he is trying to resurrect her campaign is damaged and disliked so beyond reproach that nothing the president would do now would a person sway in her favor. Lastly, black Americans who gave then candidate Barack Obama close to 96.1% of their votes are turned off and would not show up in this election. So what exactly is the good the latest waste of time that is Philadelphia's solo campaign by the president and others similarly lined up going to do to Crooked Hillary Clinton?
Icheoku in answer says nothing, zilch, nada. Instead it is going to stir more resentment especially among those who can't wait to see Barack Obama out of the White House and also in those who cannot believe that Crooked Hillary Clinton rejected a highly recommended would have been black vice presidential vice candidate Cory Booker in preference for her fellow white caucasian, the hillbilly from Virginia Tim Kaine. So for those black people and other minorities of America, who are used since this past eight years of seeing a black minority president family in the White House, to now face the stark reality that there would not be any more colored faces in the White House this time, especially from Hillary Clinton's side, is simply too big a shift for them to bear. Such betrayal will be treated by them as the height of total disavowal of their black president. At least honor his trailblazing legacy with a replacement vice president, they would argue.
So what then is in it for them afterall, they question? Why would they pull for either of the candidates since they have no inheritance in any of them, especially in the Clintons? Like the people of Israel said to Joshua, blacks and other minorities of America are saying loud and clear that they have no inheritance in the House of the Clintons and to their tent they have recoiled and would most likely watch the elections on televisions from the comforts of their living rooms. For them, white people have taken back their presidency, a fact made more succinct when Hilalry Clinton rejected a recommended black Cory Booker and latin Julian Castro and settled for an equally white guy. So what is there for these minorities to fight for and having no dog in the fight for th presidency, they have lost the enthusiasm and the will to go on putting their skin in the game.
Icheoku says a none racist and right thinking Crooked Hillary Clinton would have deployed this masterstroke handsomely and today would have opened a wide lead against her opponent with the added frenzied minority support, so excited in their desire to still retain some minority faces in the White House. But nope, she didn't, couldn't and wouldn't; not an option for a white bimbo who called black Americans Super Predators and few days ago upped the ante of her insulting remarks by calling over 14 million Americans despicables. So Icheoku says President Barack Obama is running on empty in backing a tired old mare without the support of any of his core constituency of voters - not the youthful voters, not the Hispanic voters and of course not the black voters.
The easily excitable youthful voters wanted their Bernie but the conspiracy of Crooked Hillary Clinton and Debbie Wasserman Shultz deprived them of that choice and they are still hurting. The Hispanic 'si se puede' voters wanted a real Spanish vice presidential candidate like Julian Castro to compensate them for all their age long support for the Democratic Party and not a white guy who merely speaks Spanish. Then of course, the black voters who wanted a retention of some black faces in the White House, especially so soon following a black president. Cory Booker would have supplied this need, but he was rejected by Hillary Clinton, acting in concert with the white peoples unspoken resolve to get rid of blackness from their White House and went for a 100% white caucasian candidates for both parties.
This certainly makes it a very tall order for the president to fill trying to sell Hillary Clinton to American voters; and you wonder why try if you know you are going to fail. That the tears and excitement of 2008 and 2012 are long dried and never coming back to those expectant faces, many of whom were disappointed in the many unfulfilled dreams of this past eight years, is also a fact of great consequence in his belated effort to help elect Hillary Clinton.
Moreso, Americans are craving for change and Americans will vote to change the current direction of this country including a knee jerk foreign policy which has left the world more fractured today than it was in 2007. Icheoku says there is no American who wants to continue with the trajectory of the failed leadership at the world stage, leading to the rise of Iran, North Korea as well as the continuing intransigency of a now more emboldened China and of course Russia. The case of Russia is more troubling as many Americans would rather America does not confront Russia which the continuing bellicose is suggesting is now becoming more likely than not. What Americans are hearing from Donald Trump concerning possible rapprochement with Russia is encouraging and they are ready to give peace with Russia a chance.
Icheoku says for President Barack Obama to have lost Icheoku's support shows that he has lost majority of his fans of 2008 and 2012. He has lost his goodwill among so many blacks of America who were extremely disappointed that his presidency practically left them in worse condition than it met them in 2008. Again, they gave him a remedial benefit of the doubt by voting for him in 2012 but again were disappointed.
Icheoku makes bold to say that black Americans did not fair better as anticipated under Barack Obama's presidency. Many more blacks have lost their lives under his presidency than during any other time in recorded presidencies. That he has not made out time to visit the killing field that is Chicago Southside to commiserate with the many bereaved African American families is also a strike against him. A matter made worse because he went to Connecticut as well as to Orlando to grieve with the killings of other races. But Chicago Southside with its astronomically high causality, is yet to factor in the president's itinerary, to visit to say sorry for your losses. That many job losses and joblessness among African Americans is still high is a fact too.
Further, the president never lit the White House with black colors in commemoration of Kwanza; but has repeatedly lit it green and rainbow colors for Irish Saint Patrick's day as well as Gay Pride week. Motherland Africa did not fair any better either; with the president refusing to visit the highest concentration of black people on the face of planet earth Nigeria, while repeatedly visiting other races citadels from China to Japan to Latin America to Europe. Also the president refused to sell Nigerian weapons with which to fight Boko Haram muslim terrorists as they besieged the country laying human lives and properties to waste. But the same president rushed free weapons to Iziddis of Iraq, Iraqis, Syrian rebels, Saudi Arabia etc as they engaged their own security challenges.
So why would any black person cast his lot in a Crooked Hillary Clinton because Barack Obama said so, when Obama himself did not deliver for black people? If he did not deliver or could not deliver, what guarantees then is there that Hillary Clinton would or that Obama would make her do so? Still wondering why Oprah Winfrey, P.Diddy, Denzel Washington, Ice Cube, Jay-Z and other high profile African Americans have distanced themselves from Obama as well as remained very lukewarm with the prospect of a Hillary Clinton's presidency; afterall she called them Super Predators. They have since abandoned the Obama ship and are not eager to hop on board Crooked Hillary's dinghy either and would rather remain marooned in the Island of apolitical this time around.
The joker in this election is that if blacks and other minorities stay out the election, majority of white people will vote to have their White House back and Donald Trump wins; and they will vote Donald John Trump the next president of the United States of America. Obama lost many of black people and he might be the last minority president America will ever have; at least in this century. For all the disappointments and so many hopes dashed and left unfulfilled, echoing Crooked Hillary Clinton, Icheoku says 'shame on you Barack Obama'; this time, for campaigning for a candidate who called black Americans Super Predators. Such very derogatory labelling, calling fellow human beings and fellow American citizens, Harambe the gorilla, is too demeaning and so offensive that it is indeed an unforgivable sin. It will cost Crooked Hillary Clinton dearly in this election. Go Trump; Vote Trump and let the healing begin.
