We could really use someone like Moynihan these days but sadly none compare. How is Obama so silent on these issues?

- anigbrowl 11y agoHave you not noticed how bitterly his comments are rejected when he does comment on them? I'd imagine that this will be his signature post-presidency issue, as he established a foundation called 'My Brother's Keeper' that aims to address the specific problems of black male youth. But you have people on the left demanding that he tear down the entire structure of white patriarchy, and people on eh right insisting that this is all he has done since taking office.
