As Mitt Romney continues to rise in the polls, Democrats are still scratching their heads, trying to figure out why President Obama 
didn’t mentally show up to the first presidential debate last week.
Pundits have speculated on all sorts of reasons for Obama’s weak performance. Some say President Obama was tired and just doesn’t like debates, while others have suggested that Obama is throwing the election. Until now, Obama hadn’t directly addressed the issue.
But during an interview with Tom Joyner this morning, President Obama tried to talk Democrats down from the ledge and provide some reassurance:
Well, two things. I mean, you know, the debate, I think it’s fair to say I was just too polite, because, you know, it’s hard to sometimes just keep on saying and what you’re saying isn’t true. It gets repetitive. But, you know, the good news is, is that’s just the first one. Governor Romney put forward a whole bunch of stuff that either involved him running away from positions that he had taken, or doubling down on things like Medicare vouchers that are going to hurt him long term.
…And, you know, I think it’s fair to say that we will see a little more activity at the next one.
At least President Obama has some idea of what went wrong and he’s aiming to fix it. That’s reassuring considering that some of his aids confided to reporters that Obama initially thought he’d done fine in the debate until he was told otherwise.
This also puts a lot of pressure on Vice President Joe Biden to perform well during the V.P. debates. The Vice Presidential debates will air Thursday, October 11th from 9-10:30 PM EDT.

One never arrives to the truth of any matter by discouraging intelligent observation, discourse, argument and evidence that is clear as day. MLK Jr. said people should be more concerned about the content of a man’s character than the color of his skin. I agree wholeheartedly and the fact is the vast majority of black people in America and Africa don’t really know jack about Barack Obama’ past personal character shortly before he ran for president nor his present administration, legislation, or the fact that rich white Jews early on selected and bankrolled Obama. The very same rich white Jews Obama bailed out with government money forcibly requiring nothing in return to help Americans are overwhelmingly represented throughout his administration along with Hispanics that he has also appointed to Supreme Court and all other positions of power and authority. And, the same white Jew and WASPs who are overwhelmingly America’ employers who are also steadily not hiring African Americans with or without college degrees for available jobs. Prior to his re-election campaign machine gearing up, POTUS Barack Obama wouldn’t even utter the two words “African American” in front of the media or in his speeches. How about black people get off of our a***s and do some research before we jump to defend Obama who based on his record definitely does not deserve such defense. Dr. Boyce Watkins like many other African Americans who have done so knows way more about Obama and can therefore clearly see Obama and his administration way past Obama’ and Michelle’ skin color. This is something that unfortunately most other black people have been unwilling and not had sense enough to do. In stating all of this, I am not advocating that African Americans vote for Romney. Research him too. What I am saying is don’t love Obama simply because of the color of his skin or what he says. Pay attention to what the man does or does not do. For example, if Obama does not substantially increase the availability of jobs in America and the economic gap between the rich versus dwindling middle class and poor widens, who the h**l do you think is going to suffer greatest behind this and is also suffering greatest right now? I don’t give a d**n about Barack Obama’ skin color, but what I do care about is whether he’s following the marching orders of the rich to dangerously widen the economic gap between rich and poor. I care about who will create jobs and business opportunities for African Americans and will substantially lower high African American unemployment. And, if the individual who can do this is black, white, yellow or blue, it doesn’t matter to me. Otherwise, if it’s a member of the so-called “Black Elite” and “Boule” like Obama and so many others who overwhelmingly deceive black people en mass to look out for themselves given their reward to do so by virtue of also being dependent on the economic power strings of white America, I’ll take somebody else who will make a difference for African Americans by creating higher education, jobs, and business development opportunities. Obama’ boy Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel’ recent reply to the media on why Chicago construction companies don’t hire black men and women is empty air and is also the same load of hot c**p excuse about lack of “training” his fellow white Jews in urban cities nationwide who are in vast numbers the commercial and residential real estate developers and construction company owners have for the past 20+ years also stated too about why they overwhelmingly hire only Hispanics for construction jobs. These dogs don’t hunt anything other than money, greed, more lies, and systematic discrimination against African Americans in showing clear preference for hiring Hispanics and whites. Also, the vast majority of Hispanics hired by white Jews and WASPs for construction jobs cannot even speak English and actually have had no formal or official “training” in the construction trades, but rather America has deliberately allowed them to illegally enter this country and be rewarded with work denied to African Americans and access to social services lifetime long paid for by both employed and unemployed African American taxpayers who have not only been disproportionately harmed by America’s “Great Recession”, but also non-stop economic and social racism. Here in Washington, D.C.. white Jewish developers, construction company owners, and media are stating the same garbage in media articles as Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel. They are all spewing the same old bullshit about African Americans not being “trained” for nor wanting to work construction jobs and nothing could be further from the truth. The real problem has been that African Americans nationwide have for 20+ years stood by idle and watched white Jewish and WASP American employers steadily and overwhelmingly hire Hispanics, watched white American-controlled banks readily provide small business loans to non-African Americans, watched biracial 1/2 white/black city government politicians (lethal white America’s years forwarded new strategy along with white media’ steady promotional pushing of interracial marriage and procreation between blacks and whites) backed by the money of white Jews strip African American government employees of civil service job protection and union rights to orchestrate massive firings, and watched African Americans in major urban cities be deliberately forced into long-term unemployment, home foreclosures, irrevocable financial ruin, first-time social service use, poverty and forced out of American cities without conducting any aggressive or vehement organized protest whatsoever. African Americans have folded like dumb sleepy sheep easily rounded-up, forced, and led to slaughter over a cliff. And, guess who’s helping the white Jews and WASPs big time? All the so-called “Black Elite” whose jobs, businesses, and bank accounts are intimately dependent upon and tied to tight relationships with the same white Jews and WASPs who have historically done everything possible to systematically, institutionally, and economically exploit, divide, dilute, decimate and destroy the Black Race in America and worldwide. So, who do African Americans have to blame other than ourselves regarding unwillingness or inability to unite? You will not find the same problem among white Jews, WASPs, Hispanics, Asians and others. They tightly stick together. Also people, know this. Barack Obama was early on selected and is owned lock, stock, and barrel by rich white Jews. His administration is also overwhelmingly comprised of white Jews and Hispanics. Black people in America and Africa have for far too long had the insidious and deadly problem of having trusted bought, propped up and puppets into our confidence and camp. We are truly sick and have to be to have allowed all we have allowed to go on for so long. It’s called brainwashed self-hatred, crabs-in-a-barrel syndrome, and total lack of higher consciousness not to seek, know, or act on the strength of who we really are due to being mired in belief of incredible lies and ongoing deception. And, along with all else, we don’t even know that the white Jews in America and Israel are not even the true descendants of the ancient people Hebrew Israel God’s Chosen who were in fact black and brown people. The white Jews and Zionists are total imposters orchestrating through their control of banks, corporations, industries, media organizations, governments, court judicial, legal, and prison systems, greed and riches the vast majority of wickedness and injustices worldwide. May Almighty God and Jesus Christ enlighten and help black people fast before it’s too late because in addition to white supremacy we are also our own worst enemies.

Great response Debra, but I think it’s too late. The level of ignorance, lack of education, wisdom, and ability to communicate is too ingrained. A brother share with me in the 80s that black folks were equally divided and quite well conquerable sad, it;s only gotten worse. The devastating effects that Crack Cocaine has had on our community is frightening, which I believe was genocide set us back generations, and just about destroyed the black family and the respect our children had for their elders, and subsequently they were lost, imprisoned, became poor parents and bought into the so-called Hip-Hop culture, which has been another source of social genocide.
On Obama, he seemed to be lost for words and unable to bring up his audible decibels when white congressmen get at him, BUT you know the rare times he is in front of a Black audience or a black journalist ask him a question; he is as clear as a bell, loud and presents as somewhat angry and condescending that we would ask a question about our well-being. I am feeling, I wanted to an intellectual thinking but I’m not I’m a feeling, so I became a therapist. I don’t feel him.
In response to your response to how you determine the mettle of a man by what he does and not what he says. In the 80s I met Chuck Chamberlain, Richard Chamberlain’s father and he shared that someone asked him “WHAT IS LOVE?” and his response was “LOVE IS TO DO.: Take care

What the President said is exactly what I said in another debate. When a man stands there and tells a flat out lie, how many times can you say…”you’re lying”. So I’m sure that caught him off guard. I know hind sight is 20/20. Yea, he should have been prepared for that nonesense but he wasn’t. I’m sure he will be prepared for the lies and distortion in the next debate. All this surging in the polls for Romney will be short lived. Any person with common sense can see that Romney doesn’t give a d**n about people making decisions on whether or not to put gas in the car or pay on the light bill. Do I buy a whole gallon of milk or a half a gallon. He has no clue about what normal people go through. So he really told the truth about the 47 percent. He can’t relate to them and no he will not get their vote. What he is hoping for is making just a few more people out of a fool by telling them he’s going to stop immigration and making broke white folks think that it’s handouts to mexicans and Black folks is why they can’t get jobs. that’s what he’s hoping for. Now if people couldn’t see that he was lying and go out and vote for them, when they find themselves broke and out of work, they need to blame themselves. Romney is going to do well no matter who is in. The question you have to ask yourself is who is looking out more for “your” interest. Not because Obama is Black but his policies clearly do more for me as opposed to Romney’s.

With all due respect, Mr. President, Mitt Romney totally insulted you when he said, “You get a house and an airplane, but you don’t get to pick your own facts.” Was I the only person insulted by this extremely condescending remark? In my opinion the debate was lost by the President at that point. Don’t we know when we are being insulted?

Hi LaShanda,
I agree. I had the same idea. This could have been a strategy he was using. It backfired on him and we don’t know how much of the damage will carry over into election. Other scenarios that occurred to me is that he was trying to maintain his image of being the low-key, calm, cool, and collective president whom he is often portrayed. Also, Obama may have felt that because he is black that he would have to maintain his composure to save face with white voters. I think he is going to come out swinging this because he knows that his performance let supporters down. There’s nothing worse than a man fighting for his life. Furthermore, what else can Romney possibly say that he hasn’t already said. The President is brilliant, and
Romney was stupid for coming out with so much information that now can be used to make him be seen as the backpeddler on issues that he is.

Romney pulled a slicky last debate, and the POTUS should have put his foot down. Romney is RINO!! During his GOP primary he TACKED to the DEEP RIGHT to prove he was a staunch conservative….then strategically he tried to TACK TO THE MIDDLE GROUND to win the General Election in the first debate—Bill Maher stated last week he did it but usually these fools have a COVER STORY–INSTEAD ROMNEY JUST WENT TO THE MIDDLE LIKE NOBODY EVER SAW A VIDEO OF HIM OR READ WHAT CAME OUT OF HIS MOUTH!! The POTUS SHOULD HAVE CRIED FOUL LOUD AND CLEAR!!! SOMEONE HAS TO!!! A Politician SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DECEIVE any voter by saying one thing today and another the next day which is in STARK CONTRADICTION. If Obama loses, get ready people, this country will be in a long ride to nowhere and more recession — the election of Romney is the ushering in of another Robber Baron Age for the rich and corporate elites, along with another war!! Start the prayer campaign for the POTUS!!

Correct Mr. Hill,
Blacks are arguing over a debate while the economy is in the craper and if you beleive we have 7.8% unemployment now there is no need to talk to you, because you have no thought process.
I am sorry for my people because our attention can be turned away from serious matters very easily. Obama cannot debate because he has done a bad job, he is not a business man and has not had a real job or managed people. What do you expect.Romney is no liar and black people know that, the debate just showed black people the emperor has no clothes and that scared black people. We saw Obama the puppet.

We must realize also that while he traveling from state to state, he is also working, by the time he arrived at the mild high city, he may have just been worn out.

Obama’s ability to debate is beginning to concern me. What does he mean by “too nice”? He could have been nice and still looked Romney in the eye. He could have been nice and still held his head up. How is being nice stopping him from defending his record? When Romney told a blatant lie, how was Obama being too nice by not telling the American public the truth? I could go on and on, but the bottom line is The debate wasn’t for Romney or the president. It was held for the public. It was to help the public decide. It was to give the public facts and truth, so that the public could make a decision in it’s best interest. To the degree that he did not do that wasn’t being nice at all! He owed that to the American public and he didn’t do his duty. That’s why people are upset with him. As long as he did those things, he could have been as nice as he pleased. Clinton gave Obama the bounce that he needed to jump further ahead in the campaign. Now people are counting on Biden to turn back the tide in his favor. People already know the president is nice. Some think he’s too nice. He needs to show that he can be effective enough to win this election.

yeah, I dont want to sound too hard on the guy,considering his day job, and all kind of intelligence being fed to him and then campaigning—it cant be easy. How much time is left to polish up his act and scrutinize Romney’s plan closely.
That said, he should be able to VIGOURSLY defend his OWN policies. The white folks that I know seem to prefer brothers and sisters who can speak fluently expressing their ideas. And any hesitanacy, long pauses is seen as not being on top of your game.
And finally, prez is going to have to show the white electorate through speech that he still has it under control otherwise, they’re going to abandon ship. Remember, 43% of them helped Obama to win.
Chris Martin
October 10, 2012 at 6:35 pm
some of those aides should have been fired for not coaching the president better. They had to know that that white devil is slick talker as the mousse in his hair.
So, the president just need to be ready to justify his policies and dont let romney talk to him any kinda way, like when romney told him that he knows how to pick losers
He needs to deflate the white devil by turning to the camera and speaking to the American people if he loses his train of thought
Romney’s a good b.s.er. Prez better do his home work

October 10, 2012 at 9:10 pm
Don’t blame it on his aides. Prez Obama is a smart man. He’s just allowing himself to be punked. He does too much pandering instead of saying what needs to be said. His performance is on him and no one else.
Chris Martin
October 10, 2012 at 9:51 pm
Resa, that’s easier said than done. His aides or advisors can shoulder some of this blame bec they know the type of man romney is. I hate to admit it but he is smart and a convincing talker.
Even from my own experience, whenever I spoke up forcefully, the whites I worked with treated me like I was just being angry. So, Obama has to be careful that he is NOT being too angry, you could see the other night that he was starting to get p****d but he restrained it.
Oh, and David Corn at Mother Jones magazine said that he has another tape of Romney that he will be releasing in 2 days with Romney talking some more c**p, but that is all that he would say.

President Obama should unleash on Romney in the next debate.
After the lies and disrespect from Romney in the first debate, President Obama will not have to worry about being perceived as the angry black man or a threat to white America.
The stage is now set for a Black President to act a fool on a white man on national TV and will not have to worry about losing votes for disrespecting a white man.
This next debate should be entertaining, hopefully Romney will use that lying no matter what strategy again in the next debate so Obama can drop kick him off the stage and TV screen.
Can’t wait to hear these white devils lose their minds after the debate, angry as h**l at Obama for snatching that white pillar case bed sheet off Romney’s head for lying during the debate.
Vote Obama!

This smiling negroid has finally put these O’Dramaites in their place. They have been giving thousands of reasons for his performance, and now they know what we Rebels have been saying from the git-go about this weak negroid was True.
Just look at this smiling mullato with his head down! This is a pitiful picture for somebody, who calls himself a president! I lost ALL respect for him on that night, and I KNOW, he’s not going to do a d**n thing for Black people, if he’s ‘selected’ for another term.
He has laid the ground work for willard, and willard is going to make sure he takes care of his rich counterparts, while Black and poor people continue to suffer.
Hugo Chavez said, if he had to vote; he would vote for O’Drama, but O’Drama is not, as strong of a president, as Chavez. Chavez gives FREE housing, education, and hospital care to his people in Cuba! We are left with student loan bills, hospital bills, once we graduate from college, but in Cuba; they are left with NO BILLS!!!
These negroids and caucasoids claim this is the greatest country on the planet, but none of them have been to other countries, who are prospering more than this h**l hole. If they knew that 40cents of every tax payer dollar goes straight to China. And, this is why these Asians have taken over our universites, the hair care industry, and the export/import business.
O’Drama is a BOUGHT mullato, and he’s a puppeteer, while the elite pulls the strings. He’s told what to do, how to do it, and what to say, even in his speeches. The next debate, he still will look like a timid little boy because he will be told; not too make that boy, willard, look like a dummy! I don’t think he wants to run again…it’s in his face and body language.
Biden will come out like a lion because he’s a caucasoid, because he’s O’Drama’s mouth piece. I said this on October 10, 2012 at 2:15p.m.

Dear Jeff,
One thing I have learned as a Therapist is when I communicate with my patients and with anyone is not to put them on the defense. “You Statements”, such as You are stupid, you are a fool, etc, the tendency is for the ego to flair up and the defenses appear and the tendency is for people to shut down and not listen to what is being communicated. This is a great for blacks, but together by Dr. Watkins, but a lot of energy is put into putting each other down. You don’t have to agree with how I see things, you can give me your opinion, which might enlighten me. I am disappointed in the inability for users to dialogue.
Jeff, FYI:
In 1894, long before the infamous Afrikaans word foretold “separate development” for the majority people of South Africa, an Englishman, Cecil John Rhodes, oversaw the Glen Grey Act in what was then the Cape Colony. This was designed to force blacks from agriculture into an army of cheap labour, principally for the mining of newly discovered gold and other precious minerals. As a result of this social Darwinism, Rhodes’ own De Beers company quickly developed into a world monopoly, making him fabulously rich. In keeping with liberalism in Britain and the United States, he was celebrated as a philanthropist supporting high-minded causes.
Today, the Rhodes scholarship at Oxford University is prized among liberal elites. Successful Rhodes scholars must demonstrate “moral force of character” and “sympathy for and protection of the weak, and unselfishness, kindliness and fellowship”. The former president Bill Clinton is one, General Wesley Clark, who led the Nato attack on Yugoslavia, is another. The wall known as apartheid was built for the benefit of the few, not least the most ambitious of the bourgeoisie.
This was something of a taboo during the years of racial apartheid. South Africans of British descent could indulge an apparent opposition to the Boers’ obsession with race, and their contempt for the Boers themselves, while providing the facades behind which an inhumane system guaranteed privileges based on race and, more importantly, on class.
Take care
