Dear former President Barack Obama,
During former Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign, you chastised “the brothers” for what you perceived as their reluctance to vote for a black female. You said: “We have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all corners of our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running. Now, I also want to say that that seems to be more pronounced with the brothers.”
Did you tell “the brothers” who, for the sake of racial solidarity, you tried to shame into voting for Harris that you only believe in left-wing racial solidarity?
You starred in an attack ad for the white opponent of the Republican black man, who would have become the first black governor of California. You didn’t tell “the brothers” to vote for him. In fact, you wanted “the brothers” to vote against him.
You became a U.S. senator from Illinois by defeating your black Republican opponent in the general election. In the name of racial solidarity, shouldn’t you have told “the brothers” to flip a coin?
Your future vice president, then-Sen. Joe Biden, threatened a filibuster had President George W. Bush nominated Janice Rogers Brown, a black female D.C. appellate judge, who would have become the first black female Supreme Court justice. Did you tell “the brothers” to get over their sexism and support her?
You currently support, and are campaigning for, the white opponent of the black retired Marine Republican who is attempting to become the first black female governor of Virginia. What happened to accusing “the brothers” of sexism for refusing to vote for a black female candidate?
When Biden told a black radio host he “ain’t black” unless “you know if you want to vote for me or Trump,” you were silent. Would you have said something had President Donald Trump told a white radio host, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Biden, then you ain’t white”?
Now, let’s talk policy.
Republican blacks pay far greater attention than do Democrats about the crisis of the black family, where over 70% of black kids are brought into the world without a father in the home married to the mother.
Black Republicans, far more so than Democrats, care about the crisis of urban K-12 education. About your adopted city of Chicago, Wirepoints writes, “(There are) 30 schools in Illinois where not a single student can read at grade level. Twenty-two of those schools are part of the Chicago Public Schools and the other eight are outside Chicago.”
Republicans support school choice, where the money would follow the child rather than the other way around. Democrats, beholden to teachers unions for campaign funding and support, vehemently oppose school choice despite the dismal K-12 urban schools’ results. Yet, you want “the brothers” unreservedly to pull the lever for the party that stands in the way of them getting a decent education, the lack of which translates into lifelong earnings losses. May I note that your daughters attended private schools up to and including high school?
For the last four years, you said nothing as your former vice president intentionally allowed into the country a minimum of 10 million to 15 million illegal aliens, most of whom had little education. They therefore compete against urban black and brown legal residents with high school-level education. Years ago, a study by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights found that there were nearly 1 million fewer blacks working because of the presence of illegal alien labor, which put downward pressure on the wages of legal black and brown workers. Note this study took place well before Biden allowed in the flood of millions more illegal aliens.
Republicans that you tell “the brothers” not to vote for are far more concerned about these issues than the Democrats you encourage them to blindly support.
You support DEI, Black Lives Matter and are a self-described proponent of “identity politics.” But you oppose DEI, black lives and identity politics for black Republicans.
Is that pretty much it?

Dear faux “President” Obama: I seriously doubt you will ever see this, but just like how over half the Americans feel, thanks for causing hate, malcontent and division. You, and those of your ilk, have gaslighted us long enough. You are as phoney as your “birth certificate” Go back to Kenya, take your radical socialist/communist ideas with you, and go pound sand.
I have said this before, Obama was the start of the routinization of America when he said that he was going to fundamentally change America. Prior to his election there was minimum use of the word “racism”. After he got elected that is all you have heard and continue to hear till this day.
Good for you Larry Elder, putting it where it needs to be. Had I lived in California, I would have certainly, as a white female, voted for you. You make good, common sense. Everything you pointed out in this article is absolutely true. Great calling Obama out on his hypocrisy.
Excellent article, Mr. Elder! California would be a better place had you been voted into the Governor’s office.
This is a great synopsis on the black condition directly connected to crooked and racist politicians, particularly within the Democrat party, so on point !
When Obama was elected President, he was in the perfect position to unite this country, what did he do, he walked through the door of the Oval Office and started wilding his wedge to divide the country, he started lighting a fire under false racial divides, he watered biases and discriminatory thinking with hate filled ideas causing them to grow instead of trying to cure the wounds of division he ripped open healing wounds and caused them to start re-festering. America had such high hopes, and he proved from day one that democrats are an evil anti-American plague on America.
Which brothers , his American brothers are white, is that is a problem, perhaps he should move to Kenya to be amongst the black brothers.
Good Old Barry, repeatedly using the Race Card to quietly encourage black voters to pull the lever for Black Democratic candidates. Oh, NO! no racial suggestions here. Most educated black voters did not vote for Kamala because she is too dumb to be President. Word salad is served every time she opens her mouth. We have to best person in the White House to move our country forward after 4 years of mindless Biden. Not everyone will agree, but where would we be if Harris had won?
Larry Elder is right on and one of many, who see problems as an American not as Black, White, Red or Blue.
And by the way, Barry, 21 years later we’re still waiting for some kind of certifiable documentation of American citizenship.
Well written. Interesting take on Obama’s prejudices, writing the article directly to him. I pray against him and for him at the same time–that his evil deeds will be exposed and his dirty work will be finally stopped, but that he will repent before the King of kings and be saved spiritually. Death to his philosophies; life to his soul. Imagine the good that could happen if this Saul became a Paul! Read the book of Acts if you want to know what I’m referring to.
Very well said Larry Elder, you nailed it. The Democrat’s hypocrisy knows no bounds!
Well, Pres. Obama, what do you have to say? Probably, not much, since I am not radical.
Dear Unpresidential Barry Obama, O
Of course he would only promote and shame his “Brothers” (that is an assumptive), to support Losers. Larry Elder is black and a leader, definitely an American proud through and through. Obama, conversely detests this nation. He never did prove citizenship and upon his “win”, his first stop of Bad Boys was Hugo Chavez, then on to Cuba…etc. He denounced Israel. He cause much racial divide when HE COULD have been a uniter. His BROTHERS are able to appreciate eating, working and real leadership. Larry, we would vote for you SIR, a patriot to all.
I love Larry Elder! I was so disgusted his election to governor was rigged. Great article, Larry.
OBonzo has never been anything but a lowlife, self-aggrandizing, racist, communist POS????
H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T!
What a great article. Obama wasn’t for his brothers he was for power over America like the communist dictator he is.
Looks like lies are flowing from Democratic Party
Look, forget about the race angle with Obama; he is a true-believing marxist to the core. As such he and his fellow ideologues will use race, religion (particularly Islam), sex, music, economics, education–whatever–to advance, promote, gain and consolidate political power. When that’s achieved, look the freak out–100 million and counting corpses since Lenin and 1917 tell you everything you’ll ever need to know.
Obama’s real half brother can’t stand him!
Barack Hussein Obama tried to take this country down. He would have succeeded if not for President Donald J Trump, a true American!
“Is that pretty much of it?”…. No, what I hear being talked about from ones like Obama is always the term “my people”, which refers strictly to Black people, or African American people. Why can’t “my people” be all Americans?
You’re a 2-bit shyster, Barry, old boy. Not much else.
It is too bad that O’Bama will never read this letter because it is the truth!! Thank you, Larry Elder!
First of all, Barry is only HALF black so I don’t see any bona fides for anything he says to the “brothers.” Second, his “black” father abandoned him, and had it not been for his affluent WHITE grandparents, he would have gone nowhere! It’s odd- his trying to be a “black from the ‘hood.” He wouldn’t last a week in the ‘hood! Lastly, he did NOTHING to help the blacks in low-income areas. Rich blacks like Skip Gates his phony “preacher” friends were pampered and given free rein. If I could use an old antebellum term, it would start with the word “house.” That’s who Barry helped!
Very well said.
The truth!
This jackass is a Marxist; the perfect Manchurian Candidate and a traitor, in my book. A former Navy Aviator, Obama and Biden sold the United States down the river to the Chinese, in my opinion. The Navy was decimated by both.
ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS ARTICLE IS A 1000% RIGHT ON????
I WAS RUNNING MY BUSINESS IN ATLANTA THE ENTIRE 8 YEARS AFTER HE LIED HIS WAY INTO OFFICE WITH HIS “”FAMILY SCAM””.
HE RAN AS A BLACK CANDIDATE AND HE IS ACTUALLY “MUSLIM”.
HIS MARITAL MATE WAS AND IS TRANSGENDER????????????????????????
THEY LIED ABOUT EVERYTHING ALONG WITH THEIR 2
RENT-A-KIDS????????????????????????????
THOSE 8 YEARS WERE A TOTAL NIGHTMARE AND I WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO THIS ARTICLE:
” EVEN ALLOWING A LYING MUSLIM TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WAS CLEARLY WHY WE ARE WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW!
UNKNOWINGLY, AMERICANS PUT A FOX IN THE HEN HOUSE!
THEN THEY STOLE THE 2020 ELECTION AND THEY PUT BIDEN IN A PORT-A-POTTY FOR 4 YEARS AND HE PLAYED WITH AMERICAN’S LIVES AND MONEY LIKE IT WAS REVENGE FOR HILLARY LOSING TO TRUMP;
WITH TGE AUTOPEN!????????????????
HENCE, TRUMP DERANGED SYNDROME! NOT ONE DEMORAT????????????????????????????????????????????
CAN BE TRUSTED! THEY HAVE ALL BECOME TRAITORS UNDER THE RULE OF A MUSLIM HITLER WORSHIPPER ALONG WITH HIS CREEPY BUDDY, SOROS ????????????
THANK YOU FOR WRITING THIS ARTICLE, WE HAVE TO PUSH THIS SELF APPOINTED KING OFF HIS PEDESTAL AND DESTROY ANY SELF DELUSION OF POWER HE THINKS HE HAS!
As always, Mr. Elder has stated the facts beautifully. I pray more people will wake up and clearly see the lies they have been fed generationally by the Democrat party. Those brave enough to speak out are not racists, nazis, or Uncle Tom’s – we are intelligent people who know our history & most importantly choose to think for ourselves.
Wow! Spectacular proof of Obama’s web of deception. This is a truth bomb.
Thank you, Larry Elder, for truly telling the truth about a Melatto who, like I always thought, was never really the President of the United States of America. What is it that qualifies a community organizer to be President? I know many people don’t know who Obama’s MOMMA was. I do because I do research when I want to find something, and I find out whatever I need to know. He is a crooked as a dog’s back leg and does not have the common sense to do better.
Larry, I appreciate your extremely fair synopsis of Mr. Obama’s fake approach, and his woke politics used to co-opt the playing field. I am a 65 year old retired white mail and have never seen such manipulation unfairly affect the black family, nor others as Obama’s slants and awful rants!
Well said!
Obama is the epicenter of jihad and Marxism in America. He is a pathological liar and narcissist. An anti-American, antisemite, antichristian, antiwhite Marxist sums up Obama. What he did to Trump and his friends and supporters is treason. Former president or not, at the very least if the rule of law still flickers, Obama belongs in a prison cell for a long, long time!
I wish this article could be published in every Magazine sold in this country.
Good article and easy to understand. Thanks so much..
Yes, and I do think the “Brothers have awakened”. I could not believe that Ca. preferred Newsom to Larry Elder. What a world, and look what they got.
Good article. Seems that Obama conveniently forgets that he has a white mother and was raised by his white Grandparents.He could have shown some respect from them, but I have not seen it. What a missed opportunity to promote the unifying of black and white people. He should have listened to the song by Stevie Wonder and Pau McCartney about the integration of RACIAL HARMONY.
What a turd!
Hey hussien, how about telling the truth for a change??? Or will you explode into fire????
We think Obama’s middle name is “Duplicitous”—just sayin’ for a friend from Mauritania that doesn’t speak english real well.
I think Obama’s middle name must be “Duplicitous”—just sayin’ for a friend who can’t spell.
Marxist – YES.
Kenyan – NO.
Obama’s father was Frank Marshall Davis, a well known Chicago Marxist. It was because of this heritage that. Chicago Marxists took Obama in and managed his rise to power. The Kenyan father was a cover story from the start.
