Presidential Race Hustling

There you have it – President Barack Obama is a racist. He wants the government to treat people differently and unequally on the basis of race. He wants to segregate human beings because of their race. Some would receive government benefits that others would not solely because of race.

He wants a race based government. He’s willing to create a two-tier legal system in the State of Hawaii solely upon the race of the people within the system. 

One race of people would be subject to a system of taxation not available to other races. Government spending would depend upon racial considerations. One race would be governed by a different system of law enforcement than all the other races.

The President candidly admits that his idea is to create a separate in-state government for those who are “native Hawaiians.” He’s prepared to deny equal protection of the law to people he considers “non-native Hawaiians.”

Who is a “native Hawaiian,”? one might ask. Any person born in the State of Hawaii is a native Hawaiian, the same as I am a native Hoosier because I was born in Indiana, right?

No, that’s not right according to President Obama’s racist logic. “Native Hawaiians” could be born in Indiana, or any other state in the country for that matter, just as long as some of their ancestors were living in the Hawaiian Islands before Hawaii became a state.

So a person might never even have been to Hawaii but still be a “native Hawaiian” eligible to enjoy the many benefits of Obama’s proposed two tiered racial system, while actual native born Hawaiians would be denied the same benefits.

Obviously, the President of the United States of America, a man who once taught constitutional law at a law school, thinks he can simply ignore the Fourteenth Amendment whenever he feels like it.

But seriously, I don’t think that the President of the United States has the power to confer upon one group of American citizens a legal status denied to other Americans upon the basis of racial heritage. Such a scheme is unconstitutional and Obama should plainly know that. 

Not only is it unconstitutional, its racist – just as racist as any other scheme to treat people unequally on the basis of race.

Its Presidential race hustling.
