The burden of being Obama

Erick Erickson:
...
It must be comfortable and convenient for President Obama to assume the opposition to him is because of his race. He can negotiate a bad deal with Iran and conclude the public hates it because he is black. He can tell people they can keep their doctors then take their doctors away from them and console himself that the anger of the public is just racist. He can see a solid position in Iraq and Afghanistan squandered as ISIS overruns us and, when people point it out, conclude it's just because of his skin color. People can drop out of the workforce because they can't find jobs and when their stomachs rumble and their mouths grumble, President Obama can look himself in the mirror and think it'd all be different if he were not a black man.

If only President Obama weren't black, maybe he would realize that people don't dislike him because he is black, they dislike him because he is a self-absorbed ass.
...
It must be a real burden to blame all your problems on your race.  Self pity is a destructive emotion that inhibits one from seeing the real cause of their problems.  It seems to be the liberal means of dealing with rejection.  It is an insidious form of racism in its own right.
