Then U.S. Senator Obama speaking in June 2007 at Hampton University in Virginia.In a video that was obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller, then Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama tells an audience of black ministers in Virginia, (which includes Jeremiah Wright), that the U.S. government shortchanged victims of Hurricane Katrina because of racism. Obama claimed that the government didn't care much about the black people in New Orleans. Obama said survivors of the September 11th terrorist attacks and victims of Hurricane Andrew received generous amounts of aid because they weren't black. He said the government didn't consider the victims of New Orleans "part of the American family."
The racially-charged and angry speech from Obama undermines his claim that he desires to build bridges between ethnic groups. President Obama is a divider when it comes to race. What do you expect when you consider the fact that he sat under Jeremiah Wright at Trinity United Church of Christ for 20 years? His speech doesn't surprise me. I want to commend the Daily Caller for finding the video that exposes Obama for who he is. The website also has a video of the speech Obama gave in 2007.
