					<description><![CDATA[Blacks need to pressure Obama A LOT more to focus on improving the lot of black men&#039;s lives.  It wouldn&#039;t hurt to have another jobs march by chronically unemployed black men.  He has spent so much time focusing on helping women, immigrants and promoting liberal causes that black men have continued to fall through the cracks.  He has, HOWEVER, spent plenty of time criticizing black men as bad or absentee fathers and otherwise not being dependable in american society.  

We need to be  alot more aggressive about trying to move blacks, in general, forward in today&#039;s economy.  Create mandatory summer camps for schoolkids that promote STEM fields or vocational trades for those not capable or interested in STEM.  Another summer camp could focus on healthcare, a growing field that will need a lot more workers in the future. Incentivize employers to start internships and help get blacks where the jobs are.  let&#039;s be realistic, the bronx or detroit, for example, will never have enough jobs, so get people where the jobs are!

Every time a foreigner comes into the country it undermines the progress of another black person to move up into the middle or upper middle class.  We need to insist the government focus more on those BORN here first and then help immigrants afterward.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Vince was (and still is) an asset to Texas AND the black community. Not sure why you believe they need to be mutually exclusive. Sure, Texas benefitted greatly from him, but Texas also had his back after his fall from grace in the NFL, hiring him in the Division of Diversity and Community Engagement (at a 6 figure salary no less). Just because Vince didn&#039;t have sustained success in the NFL doesn&#039;t mean he didn&#039;t succeed. He did.]]></description>
