Smooth, when Obama got elected, not only black Americans hoped the change he offered might ease the racial tensions still evident in our country, but so did many others of us.  The first black president!  Wow.  But it appears Obama's view of America was not what our country needed.  He chose to think the problems minorities face in our country was due to discrimination, when in fact the disintegration of the family, generations subsisting on welfare/food stamps, unemployment due to illegal immigration, automation, lack of quality education, etc. are the causes of unequal outcomes in our country!  The event resulting in the  "beer summit", and similar reactions to what is perceived as unequal deadly force against black males, seeming lack of support of law enforcement and our military, has not lessened the division in our country but only increased it under his watch.
