The Re-Negrofication Of Barack Obama

The Re-Negrofication Of Barack Obama

Labels: Barack Obama

I knew it was coming! I knew at some point on this magic carpet ride, someone was going to remind Barack Obama just how black his skin is. What I didn't expect was that it would be Hillary Clinton. But, desperate times call for desperate measures. Hillary called Barack a "foreign policy novice" whose naïveté will put national security in danger. She said he’s a danger to World (we need security in the World Craig!). Essentially she said, “This Nigga is not the person to take over after Dubya.” She’s hitting below the belt before the super-delegates steal the nomination.

So it’s time for a Re-Negrofication for Barack Obama. I know you’re looking at your monitor to decipher the word and probably think I’m making things up, like Niggerdom (see November 2005), but Re-Negrofication is basically bringing a person back to their senses about their Blackness. Obama has done a great job talking about change. Americans need change, America needs a change, it’s time for change, a change is gonna come, can you spare a Brother some change. However, he hasn’t been the strongest on the issues, but my Blackness won’t allow me to vote for anyone else.

That is, until he skipped The State of the Black Union this past weekend. I don’t have issue with him having prior commitments or conflicting schedules (Hillary was there), but trying to send your wife so you can kick it in Ohio? Of course some fuss was made and Tavis Smiley was pissed, but there were other people who weren’t there, Oprah, Me and Rollo from Sanford & Son didn’t attend. We all know what he wants to do, he wants to lash out at Hillary and tell her to stop hating, but then he may lose Middle America.

He probably received his most damning endorsement this past weekend when the Honorable Min. Louis Farrakhan all but asked him to the prom during his Saviour’s Day speech. That may have scared the white off of some people to think that Barack Huseein Obama is being publicly backed by Louis Farrakhan. Now, all we need is Jesse Jackson to ask the voters in “Hymietown” to hold Barack down and “Ladies and Gentleman…President of the United States, John McCain.”

Who else is in line for a Re-Negrofication? Oprah, Bob Johnson, Wayne Brady, Bryant Gumble, Larry Elder, Issac from The Love Boat and countless other sellouts publicly known and on your family tree. How do you know if you need to be Re-Negrofied? If there are five new television shows starring black people (imagine that) and you have no interest, it’s time to regain your Blackness. If you’d rather see Celine Dion than Beyonce, call the Drop Squad. Remember that movie? It was a crude attempt at getting people to examine their allegiance. Seinfeld? Are you serious?

I by no means am the authority on Blackness, but if you’re not interested in the struggle or asking yourself right now, what struggle, call me at 1-800-ASK-A-NIGGA and we can see how we can get you back in touch with who you really are. It’s really hard for me to wrap my head around how people find themselves enjoying so much from other cultures in spite of the greatness of their own. Diversity is good, but submerging yourself is whitewash! The contributions and advancements by African-Americans in the Arts, Entertainments, Sports, Education, Business, Government and other places is overlooked enough by the Establishment, it’s just sad when it happens from within.
If you haven’t said to yourself by this point, “This Nigga crazy!” you too may need a Re-Negrofication!
