African-american groups spoke out against because of his past and track record. how do you think the president's actions jive with his words? >> the actions are the key. lots of opportunity to justify or support what he said he was going to do. first of all, he won 8% of african-american voters. he made modest inroads. better than republicans did against the first african-american presidential nominee barack obama. his beachhead is rather constrained to begin with. there are lots of opportunities on the policy. the justice department under president obama was a significant force in pressuring ...
