I would have expected that one of the House reps would table the Bill and the party would (try to) move it through the system
Quit picking on Obama……

Well I have to give credit to President Obama for the racial reconciliation sweeping America. Race relations have never been better...eh?
Because, as every Canadian knows, bills in the Congress originate in the White House.
Yeah, they blamed LBJ for "inciting" blacks with his radical Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act, too.
Good point, 'cause as everyone knows, only a Prime Minister can influence one of their party members in the House to table something. Every other political system, without exception, relies on the goodness and sincerity of the House (party) members to randomly come up with ideas.
Thanks for clarifying that
The Zimmerman verdict was a godsend for Obama ?

No they don't. I can't be bothered to explain the difference between an act of Congress and an executive order to you, since you think you already know everything.
The answer would be "because there is a significant bloc in the Congress that would vote against a cure for cancer if Obama supported it."
Such is the relationship that has been developed by all concerned, but regardless of the nation in question or the respective leader or political environment, there is no way that I will believe that one group/party/individual is without some form of blame or is part of teh problem.
That said, the buck stops somewhere and in America, it is the POTUS
Racist right-wingers.
And in that you're wise.
Oh, dear. You're a bit behind the times, Cap'n. In 21st century America, the buck never stops. Nobody's ever responsible for anything, even when they state that they are responsible for it.
Seems to me that there are more than just a few issues that are being laid at the feet of the President and there are fewer and fewer opportunities to get someone else to fall on their sword for the party.
Why should anyone fall on their sword for the party when you can just blame the Republicans?
Of course they are. Lots of them. I think you're trying to say you aren't buying it anymore.
You're right... My comment really should have read that fewer and fewer are buying it anymore
Just about right.......

It was necessary to stoke the flames of racial animosity in 2011 and 2012 in order to gin up the African American turnout for the presidential election. The tactic succeeded. The black turnout exceeded the white turnout in 2012. This tactic was brilliant politically, but had the effect of causing a deterioration in black/white relations.
Don't you just hate the fact that non-white people don't agree with you that there is no racism in the United States? How dare they?
