Jimmy Carter: “We have a genuine problem.”

Carter says the animosity directed at the president over health care, the big bailouts, is being driven because Mr. Obama is a black man.

Our great nation now teeters on the brink of a widening abyss. Without immediate action, we are at genuine risk of civil conflict and losing our precious democracy.

I don't think the administration has ever picked up the ball, much less dropped it.

An overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man.
