Dear Friend of the Freedom Center,

Barack Obama made one of the most irresponsible comments any American president has ever uttered about race when he said that if he had a son, "he'd look like Trayvon."

The President was referring to Trayvon Martin, the black Florida teenager shot and killed by neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman in late February. The details of the case are still murky, although the police report indicates that far from committing an unprovoked "execution," as black radicals were quick to claim, Zimmerman himself had been attacked by Trayvon Martin and was likely acting in self defense. The facts of exactly happened on that fateful Florida afternoon will gradually emerge over the next few weeks. But this much is already clear—Barack Obama has lent the prestige of his office to the insinuation that this death came about solely and simply because of "American racism", and therefore, has forfeited any claim to be the great healer and uniter he postured as when he first ran for the Presidency.

Everyone who has a son or daughter should be concerned about this loss of life. But in that reckless comment about Trayvon Martin, the President dealt a whole deck of race cards. He became part of a narrative which led to school shut-downs and mass marches by enraged African Americans and death threats by Black Panther thugs. He enabled race hustlers and shake down artists like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to reclaim the nation's front pages with their warmed over charges that racism is "worse than ever." Instead of putting out a fire, Obama chose to act as arsonist in chief. In a cynical effort to energize the black voters who voted for him by a 98% margin four years ago, he willingly gave cover to the demagogues who are absolutely addicted to the idea that America is a racist society and who cannot live with the possibility that the U.S. is now or ever will be a nation where "race," which once counted for everything, now counts for very little.

Fortunately, the Freedom Center sees straight through the President's political games. Since the President has chosen to open a Pandora's Box of racial division, FrontPageMagazine—our daily website—will not only follow the Trayvon Martin story in the complicated course it is bound to take, but also begin an ambitious journalistic project on the "Obama Administration's New Racism." As part of this series of investigative articles, we will examine the efforts of the Obama advisors to inject race into the upcoming presidential election. We will analyze the ways in which his administration has tried to breathe life into the discredited idea of affirmative action by leaning on colleges to "get creative with diversity." Perhaps most importantly, we will portray the ways in which Obama's attorney general has imposed a racial agenda on the Justice Department. Your immediate tax-deductible contribution of $25, $50, $100 or more will fund this effort and help us show all of America that it's President Obama and his administration, not us, who are inciting racism.

Musing with mock profundity on this tragic event, Obama said that "all of us have to do some soul searching." In this, at least, the President was right. And his own inward look should begin with the fact that he himself, better situated than any President before him to speak honestly about how color blind America has become, has instead allowed his administration to continue to perpetuate divisive myths about America's ongoing racial guilt. From his shameful involvement in the Professor Louis Gates "racial profiling" fiasco to the criminal misconduct of his Attorney General Eric Holder's mishandling of the case of voter intimidation by Black Panther "poll watchers,"Obama is presiding over an administration that pushes race in our face rather than putting it behind us.

You may already know my opinion about the Trayvon Martin case from the article I wrote about it for FrontPageMagazine the minute the President made his disgraceful comment. I took a different stance from the mainstream media, which followed the Obama's subliminal narrative of "more American racism," because the Freedom Center's job is reporting the truth, even if it is controversial or upsetting. I have been a civil rights activist my entire life and I am not afraid to speak the truth about race in America—truths that the liberal media have strangled with politically correct clichés. This much I know for sure: it is the Obama administration, not America, that is guilty of racism.

Will you help the Freedom Center show the rest of America what we already know by supporting FrontPageMagazine's "Obama Administration's New Racism" project? Please follow this link right away to make the most generous, tax-deductible contribution you can afford today.

With his comments on the Trayvon Martin case, Barack Obama has helped poison the political atmosphere in our country. Your help is critical for the Freedom Center to fight back against the White House's effort to paint America as a country in which bigotry and hate is on a rampage. Please donate today so the Freedom Center can meet President Obama and the racial demagogues he has unleashed head on. Thank you in advance for your continued support.

Sincerely,

David Horowitz
President & Founder
