and like a previous poster wisely noted, the writer of the article did it to get people to read the article. An article that states what we already know . . . "far right wing voters hate Obama because he is black." Each and every day something is said or done to devalue and disrespect President Obama because he is black. I know that I am preaching to the choir on this site, because the majority of the people who post on here would agree. I have stated time and again that I am a black woman. I have nothing but contempt for people like the author of that article who try to hide their hatred for this president, and black people by using a term that he knows has no positive meaning, but then says, "But I like/support President Obama and black people." I'm just done.
