1. Sort of like a wife-beater's drunk buddy

2. As the first African American President the question

really should be asked how can he, who has held beer summits and weighed in on Trayvon Martin, help support a corrupt Jim Crow / Apartheid system with such ease; denying an entire people justice while they are continually assaulted?

This amounts to the present-day USA standing by as the Ole South rises and reenacts the worst forms of Jim Crow.
