Cornel West vs. Barack Obama | FrontPage Magazine

I am so tired of the Race baiting. It has gotten so much WORSE since Barak became president. If you check waaaaayyyyyy back - I predicted this would be the case. And that is so sad.

West might have been wise to consider this pecking order before calling the president “a black mascot of Wall Street oligarchs and a black puppet of corporate plutocrats.” Such epithets hurled against Thomas Sowell or Allen West will boost their speaking fees. But tugging on the Chosen One’s cape is no way to ingratiate yourself to academia, Hollywood, the media, and other drivers of West’s gravy train who clearly value the president more than the professor."
