U.S. President Barack Obama pauses during a town hall meeting with young African leaders at the University of Johannesburg Soweto on Saturday, June 29, 2013, in Johannesburg, South Africa. The president is in South Africa, embarking on the second leg of his three-country African journey. The visit comes at a poignant time, with former South African president and anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela ailing in a Johannesburg hospital. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)

As he mulls whether or not to do more damage than he has already done as it relates to the NAACP request, President Obama should consider how the American people’s assessment of his leadership have fallen to their lowest level in over a year of regular tracking.

In light of the facts and evidence during the worst case of injustice thus far in the 21st century, someone has to stand up to Rev. Al Sharpton and the other “useful idiots.” No longer – because we are afraid of being labeled a racist – can we allow the monetary and despotic motivations of Rev.

Much has been made in the George Zimmerman Trial that Trayvon Martin was just a poor little kid that was on his way home with Skittles and an Ice Tea. Trayvon Martin was a 17 year-old who was over 6 foot tall, had a history of violence, and was suspended during the period of the confrontation for drugs. But the jury was not allowed to hear that information, and worse, nor of the gun that Trayvon Martin is seen with in photos taken from his cell phone only days before the incident.
