How Much Did Bell Influence Obama's Ideology?: "It's seems the young Obama really took Bell's teachings to heart. He wasn't kidding when he said Bell had spoken "truth" to him in the now widely viewed video. Why did the media downplay the video in 2008? Why are they desperately trying to downplay it now?
Perhaps they didn't want people asking what else Obama learned from Professor Bell. Maybe they didn't want Bell's radical and controversial words to be used to analyze Obama's words as I did above. Did/does Obama believe that this country's laws are inherently racist and designed to perpetuate white supremacy, as Professor Bell believed?"
