I have always been an Obama fan from the git-go, when he was not that well known last year, a collegue of mine at work (brother) mentioned he was NOT a Obama supporter nor was none of his friends he was backing Hillary Clinton 100 percent. But I do think once he got the nomination and a lot of black folks seen where he had a real chance of winning, they backed him 100 percent.
I think a lot of blacks feel as if Obama will not cater to their needs and his foundation is built on those who need a helping hand aka *middle class* and not those who are trying to beat the system.
I do think he cares deeply for the black community and ALL people in general and will help those who are trying to help themselves; this is why I like him and admire him so much.
But then you probably got a WHOLE lot of brothas HATING on Obama *secretly*...when in fact they should be truly inspired.
