Well the problem is its touching on a very common sterotype. Why don't they just have an Obama alarm clock that's always late?

Err... are african americans known for eating curry sauce with their fried chicken...? I'm quite sure whichever stereotype it is we really don't know about it in germany

r u just trying to make him say something racist so u can ban him? XD

According to one of our mods the stereotype is that african american like fried chicken is that true? I really never heard of that one and I have two black friends... I've heard about the watermelon one though... but I'm really not into stereotypes they're silly anyways.

I'm afraid that most people will laugh at this post for all the wrong reasons.

I see the irony two fold.

First, there have been several other "Obama food products" put out accross the world by local companies looking for extra promotion. I've seen several reported as curiosities in variouse news stories over the last few weeks. But now it's fried chicken, so there is possible "racisim" at work.

Second, fried chicken is a tradition african american dish dating back to the slavery days. It's not an African dish. Obama who's father was Kenyan is not part of that culture. Cornbeef (which I am cooking right now) is an Irish-American traditional dish. Not so big over in Ireland.

Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

People can be really retarded. Obama is not even black, he's "bi-racial" and grew up with the white side of his family to boot.
