					<description><![CDATA[You just gave America a reason to continue discriminating.  It is natural for anyone to help out a friend. You have given racist America a whipping boy.

The problem with Obama&#039;s administration from the very beginning is that it had no &quot;think tank&quot; to provide minute by minute monitoring and policy recommendations.  Every modern day president has had the use of such an apparatus.
When Obama first go into office, I wondered which &quot;think tank&quot; organization would he choose.

The purpose of &quot;think tanks&quot; are to analyze problems given to them by federal, state, city governments (and others) and come up with a report of findings and recommendations - this gives feedback before the requesting entity takes action.


The requesting entity can use the information in the report , adopt the recommendations, push it back to the drawing board or reject it report findings completely - since the requesting entity paid for the report and has zero obligations to adopt anything in the report.

So far no sign of any of this has happen in this administration.

Previous administrations have used high powered &quot;think tanks&quot;, some conservative and some middle of the road. These organisations hire economists, mathematicians, statisticians, social scientists, educators, political scientists and more.  These very  &quot;bright&quot;  folks come together, discuss the problems sent to them and collectively  produce recommendations in the form  a &quot;report&quot;.

To use Mr. Gates as a &quot;whipping boy&quot; is unfair.  There are so many other factors that have unpacked Obama from the black community that the Gates incident is just a &quot;gnat in the bucket&quot;.  

To explain a reasons for Obama&#039;s lack of empathy for blacks, I leave for others, expert in human behavior or psychology to explain.]]></description>
