Americans don't seem to like it when people speak truth to power. They especially don't like it when black people speak truth to power; uncomfortable truths will always make Farrakhan and Wright unpopular, but there is serious race baiting in the assumption that because these black leaders hold certain views, that all black leaders and all blacks share the same views. MLK and Malclom X were both black leaders and they sought divergent paths for their cause. Obama has white and black ancestry, but conveniently, people like Hitchens and others in the MSM seek to help the masses forget that about him. It makes no sense what so ever that he would espouse a similar philosophoy as Farrakhan if you really examined the two men. But all the masses see is similar skin tone so they must think the same. This was a rubbish article and the people who buy into it must ask themselves why it was so easy for them to do so.
