Dr. Cornel West in calling the President a disaster is no surprise. Afterall, when one considers that he was the preeminent intellectual who everyone admired and talked about, next to his sidekick Tavis Smiley. Now here comes that darn Senator from Illinois who had the audacity to become the President! Now they are not getting as much attention as they used to receive. So what do you do to counter that reality? You attack the perceived opponent with old issues that should have been addressed years ago but were never discussed. Issues like poverty-been around for over 50 years but under the Obama presidency, you have a poverty tour! Interestingly enough, there was the State of Black America where the issues that plagued black america was discussed, a book was published by Tavis smiley but no solutions have been proposed to the Obama administration, only complaints from jealous schoolboys who cannot handle their emotions. Where were this dynamic tag team during the Bush administration? Where were they during the torture of prisoners of america? where were they when Troy Davis was murdered? Where were they when the hate language and subtle calls for the assassination of our President over the past 3.5 years took place? Where were they when Newt called the President a food stamp president? Maybe they can weigh in on these questions or admit that they are jealous of the success of another intellectually astute black man who transcends race and is trying to help others and is not sitting in his ivory tower and condescending to the less fortunate. Jealousy is an ugly thing and America will always remember their labor of hate.

Following law school, Michelle worked as an associate in the Chicago branch of the law firm Sidley Austin in the area of marketing and intellectual property. There in 1989, she met her future husband, Barack Obama, a summer intern whom she was assigned as an adviser. "I went to Harvard and he went to Harvard, and the firm thought, 'Oh, we'll hook these two people up,'" Michelle said. "So, you know, there was a little intrigue, but I must say after about a month, Barack…asked me out, and I thought no way. This is completely tacky." Initially, she refused to date Obama, believing that their work relationship would make the romance improper. Eventually she relented, and the couple soon fell in love.

After two years of dating, Barack proposed. "We were at a restaurant having dinner to celebrate the fact that he had finished the bar," Michelle remembers. "Then the waiter came over with the dessert and a tray. And there was the ring. And I was completely shocked." The couple married at Trinity United Church of Christ on October 18, 1992.

High-Profile Work in Chicago

Michelle soon left her job to launch a career in public service, serving as an assistant to Mayor Daley and then as the assistant commissioner of planning and development for the City of Chicago.

In 1993, she became Executive Director for the Chicago office of Public Allies, a non-profit leadership-training program that helped young adults develop skills for future careers in the public sector.

Michelle joined the University of Chicago in 1996 as associate dean of student services, developing the University’s first community service program. She then worked for the University of Chicago Hospitals beginning in 2002, as executive director of community relations and external affairs.

In May 2005, she was appointed vice president of community relations and external affairs at the University of Chicago Medical Center, where she continues to work part-time. She also manages the business diversity program and sits on six boards, including the prestigious Chicago Council on Global Affairs and the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools.

Check out my most recent articles concerning the 10 companies that have donated to the political parties. It will debunk many of your myths about our President and will expose the Republican Party for the "pay for play" obstructionist party that they are. Hopefully you will come out of the past and stop being a "one trick pony"!

Oh and by the way, many voters in the swing states are still riding with the President!

Its clear to me that after reviewing Michelle Robinson-obama Bio that she was a member of the Daley crew. I mean she apart of the most politically corrupt family in this country (The Daley's). Once a member of the Daley's always a member of the Daley's gang. Look at all the positions she had from harvard law school and the salaries she recieved. Involved with Americorp to funnel money. Worked at U of Chicago along with her husband. Involved with an intern when she was a member of sibley & austin's managerment. Check out her families estate holdings.

Everyone has a past. For example, romney's financial holdings and his lies have been exposed. He falsified federal tax forms which amounts to criminal fraud. Maybe you should report salient information. Too bad you have a one sided view of our candidates.

The messiah and his wife are GANGSTERS no doubt!!! THE DALEY GANG NOW RUNS THE COUNTRY!!! THIS IS WHAT A COLUMBIA, PRINCESTON AND HARVARD EDUCATION PRODUCE" GANGSTERS IN THE WHITEHOUSE. THE MESSIAHS CHIEF OF STAFF WAS THE GODFATHERS BROTHER AT THE WHITEHOUSE. THE MESSIAH PAYS THE GODFATHER BACK. CHICAGO GANGSTERS. HARVARD LAW SCHOOL GANGSTERS. WANT- A- BE'S.

Still nothing on romney! Just as i thought, just trying to attack but not enlighten..Readers notice the method of ricardo and how he is not here to add any value to our discussion as he never answers any questions that i posed to him. Only character assassinations of the president with no answers on romney. Just trying to be a good gop negro.

ACCOUNTABILITY FOR ALL TO INCLUDE THE MESSIAH AND HIS WIFE! THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREE, MLK Jr.

Accountability for all people to include romney?!

AMEN

The problem is I Ricardo Jones Sr, present the facts not slander. I back-up what I say with facts and stat's. We must wake-up and stop believing in false messiahs and their worshippers.
What I voted for was the president of the USA not a false messiah. A leader of the free world which we don't have in this country. The rule of LAW for ALL to include "BLACK PEOPLE". We have two lawyers in the whitehouse. Too bad they don't believe in the RULE OF LAW for Black Poor and Working Class, Just professor gates and his white wife their friends.

If we Black's show Romney that we don't vote based on the color of the candidate's skin.  And if a good number of US vote for him (ROMNEY) which put's him in the whitehouse. He will address our issues. Unlike obama who we voted for 98% and he didn't address our issues. Which are JOBS, JOBS, and MORE JOBS for Black People at least equal to the same unemployment rate as whites. RULE OF LAW FOR ALL to include "BLACK POOR AND WORKING CLASS" not the game you get the amount of justice you can afford!!!    

Professor,

I was right. Thank you. I just won a prize! A friend bet me that after you had been called out for stealing Douglas A. Mcintyre and Alexander E.M. Hess's article 10 Companies Making the Biggest Political Donations: 24/7 (http:// www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/02/corporate-political-donations_n_1...), you would try to wiggle your way out of your plagiarism by claiming you forgot to reference your source, in order to save face. But he is a graphic artist by training, and, therefore, knows very little about the intricacies of zealotry / fanaticism or the antisocial / psychopathic personality disorder. Both thinking / behavioral styles of which you manifest cardinal characteristics, so much so, that a diagnostic impression to that effect has been established which guides all my interactions with you. Be clear on that.

I predicted that not only would you not seek a way out of the shameless act of plagiarism, but would redouble your efforts. The fact that you suggested that Ricardo "check out my articles," is indisputable evidence that you continue to claim the work of others as your own despite having already been exposed for intellectual thievery, obviously, proved that I was right about your extreme egocentricity (caring only about yourself at the expense of morality, right over wrong regarding the rights of others), and failure to learn from experience-- both prime characteristics of psychopathic styles.

Then, too, zealotry delirium flared luminously in your continuing statement .."It will debunk many of your myths about our president." Here we see the uncritical thinking typical of the fanatic, the disjointed, and overly enthused, wailing of the zealot without focus, possessing only commitment.

For example, the stolen article talks about political fundraising, Ricardo's posts dealt with political affiliation and sponsorship. Two entirely different dynamics. But to be fair, you did rant about "pay-to-play." Here you inferred that one Wall-Street Corporatist party (Republicans) are more evil than the other Wall-Street Corporatist party (Democrats) because Republicans were raising more campaign cash.  This, of course, is the spin that works only on the uncritical zealot's mind. In fact, to be accurate, your concern is not Democrat or Republican. Your concern is the object of your personality-cult worship, the president. But you are so fanatical in that regard, so hell-bent on loathing facts that even the argument you tried to make turned out to be a non sequitur fallacy (a fallacy in which a conclusion does not follow logically from what preceded it). You see, Professor, the very article itself stated: "While the president has raised more overall, his campaign and the Democratic Party only raised 60 million for his re-election in the month May."

So if the president has "raised more overall," how does the party that has raised less overall, become a party of pay-to-play, and the party that has raised more overall, not be a party of pay -to- play, if, given your model, the amount of cash raised is the independent variable (determining factor) and pay-to-play is the dependent variable (outcome factor)?

This is the typical kind of illogical, superstitious, emotionally propelled nonsense you spew on this site regularly. I remember when you first arrived, sitting all tall and high backed in your saddle, calling everybody "stupid".. "haters" .. "Kneegrows".. "aunt Jemima".."slaves," etc., and disparaging the hosts. Al Sharpton had assigned you to take over the site and turn it into a zealous haven of fanatical foolery (you may recall, I'd surmised that, even before you confessed).

What is particularly interesting, albeit sad, is how you refuse to unschackle yourself from the Democrat-Republican paradigm. This despite the fact that a growing number of people now realize that there is no difference between the two. However, those who sit in front of TVs and avail themselves of that "dumbing down" nosense will never see the light. If they ever do, then the TV has not done its job. One station is pro Right-Wing. The other is fake pro left. It is all one huge con job. For example, Rupert Murdoch, the owner of FOX News (which I don't watch) supported Candidate Obama in 2008, while his news anchors spewed anti Obama rhetoric to its niche audience --Right-Wing zealots. It was / is all about business.

MSNBC, which I don't watch, especially since it became a comedy forum,spots on and on about the Koch Brothers this and that, to its Democratic Party audience. Yet the Democrats have been begging the Koch Brothers for Campaign cash just like the Republicans http:// www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/after-demor-koch-brothers-dscc-them-mo... .

As long as your mind is caught up in that , and Wall-Street (and the Right_Wingers) made sure in 2008 that it would be caught up for at least 4 to 8 years, you'll never be free thinking. You'll blame the poor and worship the rich. You'll place the career interest of individuals over the survival interest of millions and never know, or care about, the difference. You'll be a zealot, worshipping your own demise. Thinking that your life long dream of "livin' in massah's house" has finally been achieved. When the only thing that has been achieved is "massah's" 100% control of your mind by using its created symbol to which you have been conditioned to respond at "massah's" whims. Take away Social Security-- no response. Newt made a racist statement -- full response. Give the schools to Wall-Street-- no response. Take away jobs of millions-no response, require an ID to vote--full response. "You can vote, but you can't work." You can vote, but you can't eat. 

You'll deliriously attack all those who dare criticize your vicarious validation of "livin' in massah's house" with the ad hominems you so frequently use. You'll look far and wide to find some reason other than the truth, for their disagreement with the object of your vicarious validation. Unable to find a reason, you'll abstract all sorts of delusional ad hominems to explain, to rationalize, your vicarious living in massah's house. And you'll wake up one morning, and all your Social Security and other retirement pensions will be gone, public education will be gone, all the New Deal and Great Society programs (civil rights laws, etc.) will be gone. All civil liberties will be gone. Blacks, those not imprisoned, or in early graves, will be in Reconstruction Era poverty and dispossession. And it all will happen while you are "livin' in massah's house." It could never have happened otherwise. And then, at that moment, you'll understand that you have been played. But it will be too late. As the blues song says, by then, you'll be "too weak to fight."

I'll try to work with you because I believe, as does the United Negro College Fund, that  "a mind is a terrible thing to waste." And, unless Sister Bennetta is correct when she says you have not completed your GED, let alone achieved academic qualifications for a professorship, you have made achievements in your personal life that can serve as a positive model for some of our youngsters (not your mind in its current state. Oh, Lordy, please, not your mind). But your academic achievement, which is different from educational achievement.

Therefore, I'm asking you to comport yourself with integrity. UMOJA and others post articles and videos regularly. But not once have they deleted the author's name and replaced it with their own. You are the only one to blatantly plagiarize, and, at the same time, the only who is purporting to be a "professor."

Were I you, I would request that Sharpton reassigns me. Meanwhile, if you choose to not request reassignment, I'd like for you to continue on as a case study in zealotry delirium. I think the final phase of our project should focus on your reported area of expertise--the criminal justice system. Because it is best to proceed with these projects without interruption, I'll wait until Ricardo is finished with you, and gives me his permission to proceed.

Thank you, so very much.

I'm anxious for you to tell me more.
