GIVE ME, LEND ME, CAN YOU SPARE, TAKE ME HERE, TAKE ME THERE
How long are we going to contniue to let our president make speeches (NAACP) about you men and women not doing their job, He talks down to his own people in public and he gets the approval from the White Media. He better stop it.

DEAR BLACK AMERICA
The President of the United States of America is not talking down to black people. He is telling black people the way it is and I concur.
Black people want something for nothing.
In Chicago a coalition of black men converge upon a construction site to protest no black men on the job. When the contractor attempts to comply with their demands the contractor discovers as do every one watching that the black men don't own their own tools, can/t read the blueprints nor have union affiliations or representation.
Black people must be prepared for what the demands the make. Why ask for what you are not educationally or physically prepared to take or endure?
Is the following President Obamas fault? and pray tell what job is available in this society and culture for black people with the following black on black resume?
1. One in four U.S. public high school students drop out before graduating.
2. About 15 percent of the nation's public high schools produce more than half of its dropouts and 75 percent of its minority dropouts, according to the Everyone Graduates Center.
3. The nation's 2,026 "dropout factories," where 40 percent of the freshman class fail to graduate three years later, are found in every state but are concentrated in 17 Midwestern, Northern-industrial, Southern, and Southwestern states, as well as in California.
4. In 2006, America's 15-year-olds scored just ahead of the Slovak Republic and Lithuania in science literacy and on par with Azerbaijan and the Russian Federation in math literacy.
5. More than half of the 81,499 U.S. high school students participating in the 2006 High School Survey of Student Engagement said they spend one hour or less each week reading and studying outside of class.
6. At least 95 percent of students entering high school from the wealthiest communities are proficient in their eighth-grade state exams; in high-poverty, inner-city schools, less than 20 percent of students are proficient, usually possessing fifth- or sixth-grade math and reading skills.
7. Of the class of 2008, 15.2 percent took an Advanced Placement exam and scored a 3 or above-the scores typically required by a college for credit-up from 12.2 percent in 2003. Low-income students made up 13.4 percent of successful examinees, up from 9.8 percent, in five years.
8. Eighty-seven percent of high-school seniors surveyed by the U.S. Department of Education said they expected to go to college. Three-quarters of graduates enroll in college within two years.
9. Approximately 40 percent of college students take remedial courses.
10. The college graduation rate for low-income students is less than 10 percent.
Of course there are pockets of success. Referring to the U.S. education system broadly, The Secretary of Education told his audience of educators and reporters that......
Adult dysfunction has been at the heart" of the nation's educational ills.
