Nader attacks Obama's Blackness

Thursday, June 26, 2008


Ralph Nader came out today with a strident statement challenging Obama's Blackness. He said that Obama hasn't spoken out enough on economic issues in the ghetto and that he talks 'white' in an attempt to appeal to white guilt.


By far, the weirdest shit I heard all week. Ralph Nader now turned "Cultural Critic" speaking out in defense of Ebonics and the plight of the Inner City. I only wish he had described Barack Obama as a "Jive Turkey"; that would have made the moment iconic.


Now my memory is a bit hazy at times, but hasn't Ralph Nader already run for President like twice? And if he is truly an advocate for the inner cities of America wouldn't it stand to reason that he woulda/coulda/shoulda mentioned that shit at some point before now?


Somebody should get a ahold of VH1, we need to see Ralph Nader on the Surreal Life with Lawrence Hilton Jacobs and Gary Coleman as roomates... WHATCHU TALKIN BOUT RALPH?
