Black Radio Host SLAMS Obama’s Failure With The Black Community

Black Community

African-Americans have overwhelmingly voted for President Obama – 93% in 2012, and 95% in 2008.

According to Tavis Smiley, a well-respected political pundit and host of the Tavis Smiley Show on PBS, the nation’s first black president has set African-Americans back in every single economic category since he set foot in the White House.

Smiley himself is black, and by no means a conservative.

Here is Smiley speaking on the matter with Fox News host, Megyn Kelly …

Partial transcript via Gateway Pundit:

Megyn Kelly: On the subject of race, are we better off today that seven years ago?

Tavis Smiley: I’m not sure we are and I think ultimately the president missed a moment… On every leading economic issue, in the leading economic issues Black Americans have lost ground in every one of those leading categories. So in the last ten years it hasn’t been good for black folk. This is the president’s most loyal constituency that didn’t gain any ground in that period.

Will African-Americans continue voting with the Democrat party and help keep Obama’s economic policies in place by sweeping Hillary into office in 2016?

Comment: Do you agree that the black community is actually suffering under President Obama’s economic policies. State your opinion below.
