And there’s nothing at all low about Obama, nothing the least bit vulgar or ill-bred

"So life in America was not always easy. It wasn’t always easy for new immigrants. Certainly it wasn’t easy for those of African heritage who had not come here voluntarily, and yet in their own way were immigrants themselves. There was discrimination and hardship and poverty. But, like you, they no doubt found inspiration in all those who had come before them. And they were able to muster faith that, here in America, they might build a better life and give their children something more." — Barack Obama, 2015

Incredibly, an alt-right guy like me has never fucking once looked at Breitbart.
I hate this board
― Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 8 March 2017 19:02 (nine years ago)
Morbs do you notice how Obama frames this point
are you familiar with the notion, in rhetoric, that the first point you make has precedence, so if you say "there were immigrants from Africa! also they didn't choose to come here" it's different from saying "there were people who were brought here involuntarily, but they can also be thought of as immigrants"
do you dig that from almost every reasonable perspective Obama's line & Carson's are only vaguely on the same page

the only point all the lefties posting this have been seeking to make are that the words alone, lain side by side, are similar.
"in their own way were immigrants themselves" nope.
I did not ever study rhetorical notions, i was watching Sam Fuller's Shock Corridor

Help me catch up everyone. Are we arguing about whether Obama is the real racist?

In his late 20s now and slightly older than most classmates, he had a compulsion to orate in class and summarize other people’s arguments for them. “In law school the only thing I would have voted for Obama to do would have been to shut up,” one student told Garrow.

I guess this guy thinks he is Robert Caro because this book is 1400 pages and apparently reserves Obama's entire presidency for an epilogue.
― evol j, Tuesday, 2 May 2017 20:16 (nine years ago)
He pondered, he mused, he called senators, he wrote thoughts on a yellow legal pad, teasing out the constitutional obstacles, he consulted Michelle.
And he acted.

After today's WaPo story, I expect his fealty to bipartisanship and the noble motives of his enemies will be his most damning flaw. And it proved dangerous.

you know his moderation is really an admirable quality, though its effects on policy were mostly mixed. with time i appreciate his foreign policy approach more and more -- especially as it's become more clear that clinton was behind many of the missteps -- but domestically yes, it got him played

it doesn't matter; this is what this country deserves

"It got him played" suggests he was a passive actor.
― the Rain Man of nationalism. (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Saturday, 24 June 2017 02:44 (eight years ago)
i don't think this is right, though. the problem was they expected clinton to win like everyone else. avoiding a stink from trump about the rigged election was prudent on that basis. if they had realistically expected trump to win, the calculus on giving him fodder would have been different.

This is hardly true, and a fair bit of a cop out. The driving force behind Libya was France, for instance.
