NAACP rep said he thought Romney didn't understand Blacks.

I think perrhaps Blacks don't understand economics.

Blacks have been hurt more by Obama's presidency than any other group.

L for liberal. Must have said something right because they booed him. I suspect it was a bit of pandering to pick up around 5% of more of the black vote than McCain managed in 2008. Saw an interesting internal from the latest Gallup poll that Oblamer has lower approval numbers from blacks than both Kerry and Dukakis did in their failed runs for the WH. Not a good sign......

Educated blacks do not support Oblamer. The see how his policies are not to help african americans, but rather keep them opressed.

Obama has directed more scocial spending to the black communities, which by some make him a hero. But sadly he has done nothing to move up the economic ladder and reduce unemployment, which is really the help they need. It is very sad. They do not want to bite the hand that is feeding them, but the policies keep them down and keep voting the liberal ticket that just wants to redistribute wealth with no contribution to society through work. Makes me wonder what happens when blacks and hispanics are the majority and whites are the minority what will happen, and how it will be whites fault that they have not advanced further.

Romney talked about "JOBS" and helping reduce unemployment and less dependence on government.

Oblamer has helped at least one African American family move up the economic ladder........his own....... As for the rest of them? Well,let eat cake because he knows the masses are firmly on the Dem party plantation and will vote him and other Dems despite 40 years of failed policies, the destruction of their family structure, embracing social issues endemic to religious blacks and the holocaust on the black community called abortion and Planned Parenthood or as I like to call it, Margaret Sanger's eugenics dream come true.

One of the black commentators noted that it was racist of Romney to quote the 14% unemployment rate of blacks.

From the behavior of some of the ~~congregation~~ audience in the picture, you would have thought they were in church. I'm relating the head shaking... body language... vocalization.

That culture is upset that the common bowl might be getting smaller and that their share will decrease. They do not seem to comprehend how the common bowl is filled.

On a later segment… not related to Romney… when a black minister was asked what would decrease crime in Chicago, at first he could not articulate an answer. Then he said, “greater diversity on the police force.” This tells me that blacks… because he represents the black religious community of Chicago… DO NOT understand the relationship of indigence versus industry. The black voter for Obama (the majority of blacks) do not... even in the face of cruel evidence... understand that the leaders they lionize are keeping them down.

Don't understand his appearance at an NAACP meeting. The people that attend NAACP functions will not vote for him.
Wasting his time.

Ah, Harry... that's what the media and the Obama campaign would like you to believe! But, Romney has sown some seeds… not all of which have fallen among thorns.
