Obama tells Black men it’s ‘not acceptable’ to sit out election | CNN Politics

Former President Barack Obama on Thursday admonished Black men who he believes have not adequately supported Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, telling them it’s “not acceptable” to sit out this election and suggesting they might be reluctant to vote for Harris because she’s a woman.

He then ends up suggesting the reason they don’t like Harris is because she’s a woman -

“Because part of it makes me think – and I’m speaking to men directly – part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.”

    Democrats just can’t help themselves when it comes to condescending to their constituents, it seems. Giving big 2016 Hillary vibes

      I’ve read your posts before, bro. You’re a clown shoe. My post, this article, and Obama’s comments have nothing to do with you.

        Well you are responding to the article I posted, so it does have something to do with me…?

        Not sure what inspired the hostility, I was agreeing with you, but to each his own I guess.

        edit: lmao, you must have a fan, because someone definitely is downvoting you immediately but it aint me
