Odumbo loves to play the race/slave card, but always fails to admit if it wasn’t for African slaves traders selling their own people into slavery, it would not have been so successful. Plus he has no right speaking of slavery. He isn’t even of African descent. He is of Arab descent, many of which were slave traders. Can’t expect anything else from the lying squatter in our WH.

Accuses President Obama of using the race card, immediately states racist views.
Did you even try to make an argument?
1) Barack Obama Sr spoke Luo but there's no record of his speaking Arabic.
2) You attack Obama for not speaking about slavery the way you want him to, then you attack him for not being silent about slavery. It's one or the other, 19gundog43.
3) Not all slaves are or were African. But that didn't enter the head of a racist like you.
He isn’t even of African descent. He is of Arab descent, many of which were slave traders.
Liar, liar, plants for hire.

But he was an athetits! That means he's a librul, which means he's a Mooslim, which means he's--gasp!--an Ay-rab!

I've never seen him trying to guilt-trip anyone into giving him an advantage due to his race. OH WELL.
but always fails to admit if it wasn’t for African slaves traders selling their own people into slavery, it would not have been so successful.
Actually, it started being even more successful after the British took over (sorta), but OH WELL. (Also, Africans did not capture their own to sell: the raiders considered the captured would-be-slaves of another ethnic/race gruoup, so it wasn't technically their own).
Plus he has no right speaking of slavery. He isn’t even of African descent. He is of Arab descent,
I'm pretty sure Obama knows who his daddy is. Argument invalid.
many of which were slave traders.
... Like Europeans?

CONSPIRACY!
The slave trade was largely run by the European empires of the 16th and 17th century. While African nations would do well to remember their ancestors' complicity in it for the sake of doing right by the victims, in America, that is neither here nor there. Once the colonies gained independence, slavery became their issue, their mistake, their atrocity. The United States did not permit the slave trade for long after it became independent, so there is no point in blaming African warlords for the treatment of slaves in the US. Your forebearers hold sole responsibility for the evil it caused, and it's not becoming to try and shift the blame. And I'm happy to say there were those who did not stand for it, and gave their lives to see this institution destroyed. I don't count you as one of them had you lived then.
Confused?
