Leid Stories - Obama’s Post-Racial Economy - 02/11/13

It will come as no surprise that President Obama will focus on the economy in his State of the Union address tomorrow -- and, specifically, his second-term initiatives to save "the middle class."

It's a disturbing pattern, and Leid Stories calls Obama on it.
