And yet, that is one of the things that Obama is suggesting that the country does. Use people who are out of work to rebuild infrastructure, clean up, etc. That's true...and if you'll pay close attention, he often calls out his own race.
A while back, he did a big campaign against dead-beat dads....certainly commendable....but strangely, he pointed much harder at african-american dead-beat dads.
I have a certain amount of personal admiration for Obama....but no respect as a leader of our country.
