Biko says:

I've never been to Germany, but I know for a fact that their soccer fans frequently throw bananas at Negro players. Crazy!!!!

I say:

I'm willing to bet the farm that O.J. Hussein Obama was more comfortable in front of those Germans, (who had the potential to go nuts and throw bananas at him), than he would be if he was in front of a small group of American "HOOD NIGGAZ."

This speech he gave was just another one of his set of empty words. Without the aid of YouTube or Tivo, tell me, what did he talk about? I do know he subliminally bashed this country. This speech was NOT like Kennedy's or Reagan's. Nothing memorable. Nothing new. He just showed up.....and the MEDIA WENT ALL GA-GA. In fact, it's the MEDIA who's propping this empty suit up. The speech was DELIVERED well. And that's about it.

Overall, I'll give his speech a C-. (A for image and D- for substance).

Dear sohh.com

You know what? Statements like this really piss me off! I didnt think that a site like yours would easily fall for racist bullshit like this.
I am from Germany. And yes there are people that throw bananas. Some racist pricks, that we fight to get out of our society.

We are one of the most pacifistic countries in the world right now, the first and loudest voice against the war in Iraq. Remember "the old europe"...

I hope I could set this straight...

I am a regular visitor of your site, but i really had to get this of my chest!

By the way I would bet anything that there are more Nazis in America now than in Germany!

Michelle obama look like she got an ol sloppy, gushy ass pussy

Obama is more popular in Germany than in the USA (percentage-wise).

Obama is more popular in Germany than in the USA (percentage-wise).

Even at this moment when people welcomed him in Germany wonderfully you write about some racism. That's sad and it shows that the racist way of thinking does not come only from whites, but also from the other side. If we don't see the bright sight the one that Obama is also talking about if we discriminate between races, nations with that kind of attitude as you do.... then I do not believe in any change.

And sorry for my English, I am not American, I am not German, but most definitely I am a human being and that's what matters the most.

Caption diss my ass. people just welcome him in Germany all nice n u go on with racism.

To say that Biko Baker is an idiot would be an understatement. I have been living in Germany for almost 20 years now. I also happen to be a black American. And I'm speaking from experience. Germans have more respect for black Americans than Americans do, white or black. We are literally treated like superstars. They respect us for who we are and trials tribulations at the hands of our own countery. I love it. The real racists are in my own country(USA).
Maybe Biko and ignorant people like him, should travel and see the real world. In case you didn't know Bike-"O", the world is round not flat. It goes farther west than Calif. and farther east than N.Y.
When I'm Germany, the only thing that get thrown at me is &*$^*. I hope you understand what I mean.

You know, I find myself very saddened by the way my own people will put their own people down. Now, don't get me wrong, not all of us are right and are meant to be defended, but you keep it behind closed doors away from prying ears and eyes. That's why out all the races, Blacks and Browns (which I am both) can't get their shit together. Instead of tackling issues amongst each other and trying to overcome them together, we have to always slam each other. You want to know the true definition of that, HATIN'. And it is soooo true about other countries, they aren't as racist as America is. America is the only one that doesn't realize the tremendous impact slavery/imprisonment and so much other stuff it has had on the Black race. Obama is great for our country and I prefer a person with less political experience because he less prone to the bullshit he can pull off having knowledge of the political system. People open your eyes and your HEARTS on how have this country been ran since the same type of people been in charge. And for the comment of emptiness in Obama's speeches: You must be retarded if you can't see his point being clearly made. I am of Indian, African and Puerto Rican blood and defend it ALL and I know what wanting equality and a chance to be looked at as just as good as the next 'lighter' more 'whiter' person feels like. And that's all Barak is trying to give: A piece of hope and equality. And hey, we built the country, why can't we get a chance to run it!!!
