Ralph Nader suggested in a newspaper interview that Barack Obama is avoiding issues affecting the black community because he “wants to talk white,” and he criticized the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee for talking out of both sides of his mouth when it comes to campaign fundraising.
“There’s only one thing different about Barack Obama when it comes to being a Democratic presidential candidate. He’s half African-American …,” Nader told The (Denver) Rocky Mountain News.
“I haven’t heard him have a strong crackdown on economic exploitation in the ghettos. Payday loans, predatory lending, asbestos, lead, you know. What’s keeping him from doing that? Is it because he wants to talk white? He doesn’t want to appear like Jesse Jackson? We’ll see all that play out in the next few months and if he gets elected afterwards,” Nader said.
Obama “wants to appeal to white guilt. You appeal to white guilt not by coming on as black is beautiful, black is powerful. Basically he’s coming on as someone who is not going to threaten the white power structure, whether it’s corporate or whether it’s simply oligarchic. And they love it. Whites just eat it up,” he said, according to the paper.
Nader blasted Obama’s ties to lobbyists. Obama has pledged to not allow contributions from federal lobbyists.
“He’s deceiving people. … He would take money from corporate lawyers who are not registered lobbyists, but whose desks are across the aisle from corporate lawyers who are registered lobbyists in the same law firm. That’s been reported more than once in the mainstream press,” Nader said in a video clip posted by the newspaper.
Nader is an independent candidate for the White House, following up on an unsuccessful independent run in 2004 and a Green Party bid in 2000.
