Here is an interesting article on Obama's recent missteps in commenting on the recent arrest of an African-American Harvard professor just outside his home.
I have to agree with this criticism of Obama sticking his nose into something he didn't fully understand. He should be using his pedestal in a manner consistent with his campaign speeches...to foster improved relations between police and the minority communities they serve, rather than to aggravate tensions. Isn't he the one who declared a post-racial America?!
This blog serves as a forum for the exchange of political and economic ideas. Admittedly, my own views will have a liberal bent to them, and by that term is meant the classical sense of the word (hence the blog title). My own economic and political ideas focus on promoting institutions that protect private property rights and encourage freedom of exchange.
