Black Comment Has Some Seeing Red
CNBC television host, Chris Matthews, is in a bit of a pickle today. Matthews, who is white, stated that during U.S. President Obama's first State of the Union address, he forgot the Commander-in-Chief was black.
U.S. President Barack Obama
Some have taken offense at Matthews statement, but I honestly do not think he meant to cause offense. I thought he meant Obama's speech was non-divisive and inclusive, therefore color didn't matter.
Side Bar: with a name like Barack how could you forget he's black. The only more black name he could have is Simba Obama (I'm just teasing).
