Obama éduqué comme un blanc selon Ben Carson


Ce n'est pas la première fois qu'on affirme ainsi que Barack Obama ne serait pas un "vrai" noir américain, l'affirmation avait suscité des réactions lors de la campagne 2008. Cette fois c'est Ben Carson qui revient à la charge alors que sa campagne bat de l'aile.

 "“He’s an ‘African’ American. He was, you know, raised white,” said the world-renowned neurosurgeon, whose single mother worked three jobs – and occasionally relied on government aid – to elevate Carson and his older brother from the grinding poverty of ghetto life.

 “I mean, like most Americans, I was proud that we broke the color barrier when he was elected, but … he didn’t grow up like I grew up … Many of his formative years were spent in Indonesia. So, for him to, you know, claim that, you know, he identifies with the experience of black Americans, I think, is a bit of a stretch.”

Carson also suggested that what passes for racism now – in the age of Ferguson and Freddie Gray – isn’t comparable to the overt discrimination he encountered a half-century ago as a young man."
