BECASUE THEY FEAR HIM AND WHAT HE STANDS FOR.
Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States, is the son of a white woman from Kansas who gave birth to him in Hawaii. Afterward, he moved to Indonesia, returned to Hawaii, and attended a prestigious private school.
Barack Obama has decided to call out Senator Tim Scott for dismissing America as a racist nation. Tim Scott grew up in the heart of the Confederacy — Charleston, SC — and was raised in working-class poverty as the descendant of slaves and went to public schools.
Barack Obama is a descendant of Irish settlers on his mother’s side, and his father is from Kenya. Tim Scott is the descendant of slaves on both sides.
It is really notable that Obama and Scott are both from broken homes, but the one who got to travel the world and go to a private school in Hawaii wants to lecture the South Carolina descendant of slaves about race and opportunity in America.
The left really fears Scott. The left has told black voters for years that they are victims of systemic racism and that without the Democrats, they cannot get ahead. Tim Scott tells black Americans that they too can get ahead if they work hard and stop believing they’re the victim and America is racist. There are racists in America, but the country itself is not.
In fact, the country put Barack Obama in the White House, and South Carolina put the descendant of slaves in Congress.
Democrats have to sow racial animus to hold their coalition together, but more and more, particularly younger black men, have started shifting right. It could be fatal to the Democrats’ coalition if it keeps up. Barack Obama knows Tim Scott could be a catalyst for that change.
Democrats fear Tim Scott. He is a threat to their coalition, and Barack Obama knows it
