PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER, MAY NOT BE WRONG?
Icheoku commends President Jimmy Earl Carter for standing up to be counted, at this hour of great need; a time of political intensive correctness in the country when such a wise voice goes a long way to suit frayed nerves. Every conscientious observer knows the fact is as clear as the daylight, that President Barack Obama is getting a toxic raw deal in the hands of racist right-wingers, sons of confederates, some of whom had earlier vowed and prayed that he fails! While everybody is trying to play it safe, hiding under the time-tested safety net of "I don't want to bell the cat; " the brave God-fearing peanut farmer from Georgia, and former president, Jimmy Carter spoke up! Icheoku says, bravo Jimmy, we appreciates your bravery and candor. Any grown up who have ever lived or worked in America will understand President Jimmy Carter's position very well. A country so engulfed in self effusiveness and sense of superiority that it does not matter your qualifications, - 'a black-man is always a black-man', inferior to his white counterpart and does not know what he is talking about? I write this with personal experience and assert the 'how dare you open your mouth' is always ever present in many workplaces throughout America, when and where they tolerate your presence? So it is not out of place for some of these 'tea-baggers' with their newly discovered leader Congressman Joe Wilson, to be questioning the qualifications of President Barack Obama to be their president; and it does not matter to them that he may be the brightest bulb in the chandelier of all past presidents and presidential candidates? In their warped thinking, once the president's skin-pigmentation is black, that automatically makes him "inferior" to them and hence disqualified to be their president? A plausible deduction for all these vitriolic opposition to anything Barack Obama? So, Icheoku says, President Carter fully and completely articulated the raison d`ter for all these "real Americans" obtrusively and cantankerously hollering that President Barack Obama is going to destroy their America? Even when he astoundingly pulls in a big catch like the Somalian pirates, they still brand it perjuratively? President Carter is right about these hillbillies and Carter is a man who should know, being from the south, a bastion of racism? Any other contrary position such as came out of the White House today, is merely a politically correct statement to allow the continued joggling of the ball by the Barack Obama's presidency. Anyone who says race is not part of the 'force-majore' that fuels the present 'protests' is very economical with the truth and only the truth shall set America free! In Carter's own very well articulated words, he said, "I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man. Racism inclination still exists. And I think it's bubbled up to the surface because of the 'belief among many white people, ............ that African-Americans are not qualified to lead this great country.' Icheoku says, if one were to ask, upon what basis was this assumption founded, the answer will be certainly none whatsoever; leaving the conclusion that racism is the only cogent driving force to what is currently going on in America! A racism being pushed into the forefront by former slave owners' descendants, who surprisingly now have a black-man-president in "their" White House and is highly resentful of the audacity! Pitiful indeed that this is happening in 21st century American. However, unlike President Jimmy Carter, Icheoku however disagrees that it is "among many white people" otherwise, President Barack Obama would not have been elected in the first place - he garnered 42% of white votes; and we believe the drama being seen on television does not have anyone from that bloc of 42% Obama voters? Icheoku equally appreciates the very difficult mine-field President Barack Obama has to walk daily, and understand his politically correct responses to the curve-ball questions being thrown at him repeatedly by the press! President Barack Obama is walking gingerly on a very fine-line, in order not to upset the apple cart of America: - an apprehensive white, a surprised blacks and other dumbfounded minorities; each of whom have special needs and are constantly gnawing at the president's limbs for attention. Therefore, we understand the president's tactical withdrawal from the racism dust-up, as a well-reasoned option and the most apposite response under his circumstances. It is a somewhat Catch-22; if he agrees with President Carter, then it will be a total upheaval as he will now be forcefully re-branded "a very angry black-man in our White House with his socialist agenda?" His position, President carter full understands and will not hold it against him. Possibly a telephone call went out to Carter before the disclaimer? So it is politically smart of the president to tell the world that he does not agree with what President Carter said and not being subjected to a lie-detector makes that line easier and simpler? But the same listening world also understand the racial shenanigans in America's under-belly! Icheoku says, if President Obama "does not think it is based on the color of his skin," then what? Finally, Icheoku calls on all past and living Presidents George H. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush to jointly address a news conference in support of President Jimmy Carter in calling on all Americans, especially the right wing element of the Rush Limbaugh led republican party, to please give President Barack Obama a break and pray he succeeds! According to a popular aphorism, "to the victor, his spoils" and these people should never forget that there was an election on November 4, 2008! Also these breed of Americans must not be allowed to disrupt by protest what they could not win by ballot! It is a new day, America!
