    Obama’s Comfort Zone: King of Collaboration
    12 Jan 2011
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford Corporate media say Barack Obama seems rejuvenated, recharged, only two months after his party’s catastrophic defeat.

    05 Jan 2011
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford Before the next U.S. Census, several great American cities will lose their Black majorities, an historical development welcomed by some as encouraging racial integration.

    The Left and Obama-Trauma
    15 Dec 2010
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford It is amazing how many lefties are just now discovering the Obama that has always been there, the corporate politician with contempt for progressives and a very bad opinion of Black folks. Now that the Democrats have been shrunken in Congress, Obama is “in his…

    Obama: The Republicans' Reliable Interlocutor
    08 Dec 2010
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford It was an ugly performance by “an unrepentant, unreconstructed, center-right, corporate operative,” as President Obama defended his “latest grand accommodation with the GOP.” But it is incorrect to say that Obama “caves” to Republicans. His m.o. is far more…

    Obama Moves Effortlessly to the Right
    01 Dec 2010
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford Only fools should feel sorry for Obama as he prepares for a Republican-led House and weakened Democratic control of the Senate. This is Obama’s “comfort zone,” where he can continue to woo Republicans to join his grand center-right coalition. The only people…

    The White Backlash Has Arrived – Bring on the Black Is Back Coalition!
    10 Nov 2010

    04 Nov 2010
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford The Democrats’ defeat could turn into legislative disaster if President Obama continues to follow his “bipartisan” impulses. Obama’s past determination to find common cause with Republicans spells catastrophe under the infinitely less favorable terms of the new…

    Let’s Have a Real Protest, Not a Democratic Pep Rally, on October 2nd
    15 Sep 2010
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford “A Washington rally for jobs, justice and peace that makes no specific demands on President Obama would amount to a capitulation to the status quo on all counts.” The October 2 “One Nation” rally,…

    President Barack “Midnight Raid” Obama: End Your Wars at Home and Abroad
    30 Sep 2010
    by BAR executive editor Glen Ford Last week’s FBI raids likely signal that the Obama regime has begun a major campaign to criminalize and crush the Left. Think COINTELPRO, 21st century-style. President Obama, the constitutional rights lawyer who claims the right to kill at will, seeks to…
