    Donald Trump: No Black Presidents For A While Because Of Obama
    Trump thinks he'll win the black vote, too.
    1 day ago
    Ryan J. Reilly Justice Reporter, The Huffington Post
    WASHINGTON -- Donald Trump thinks the United States will not see another black president for some time because Barack Obama has "set a very poor standard," the billionaire businessman, entertainer and Republican presidential candidate told ABC News on Sunday. Trump -- who has questioned whether Obama was born in the United States and was once sued*by the Justice Department because the management of his apartment complexes allegedly discriminated against black tenants -- also thinks he'll win the black vote.
    Trump responded to a question on the show about a tweet he sent last year saying America would not see another black president for generations because of how poorly he thought Obama had done.
    "He has done nothing for African Americans. You look at what's gone on with their income levels. You look at what's gone on with their youth. I thought that he would be a great cheerleader for this country. I thought he'd do a fabulous job for the African American citizens of this country. He has done nothing," Trump said.
    "They have problems now in terms of unemployment numbers, look at their unemployment numbers. And you have -- here you have a black president who's done very poorly for the African Americans of this country," Trump said. "I think that I will win the African American vote and I think I will win the Hispanic vote."


    Trump also distanced himself from his past praise*of some of his current opponents, basically acknowledging he only said nice things about them in the past because he needed good relationships with politicians for business purposes.*
    Trump also would not rule out a third-party run for office, saying only that he wouldn't run as an independent if he was treated fairly by the Republican party.*

    There won't be another black prez for generations no matter how well or poorly obama has done. (...if this country & its system even lasts for generations.)

    Obama was elected in the unique circumstances of this country being largely reviled worldwide thanks to the decisions of the bush administration and all its antics prior. The wolves were at the door and barack hussein obama was a way to call time-out, hit the reset button and say "see -- we're not that bad."

    I've always said "If no osama, no obama." Hussein's fresh tan face in the whitehouse was a response to a world angry enough at america to fly planes into the pentagon. If not for that (and bush being so fucked up), the media wouldn't have appointed him.
