Obama Heckled by Black People for not Focusing on Black Issues (Videos)
John McCain is usually the candidate getting heckled and interrupted on the trail, a product of his open town halls but also the more controversial aspects of his foreign policy. But on Friday it was Barack Obama who found himself being yelled at — several times — by African-American attendees who argued that he ignores “black” issues. In an appearance in St. Petersburg, Florida, the Illinois Democrat’s address was interrupted when several young black males stood up, hoisted a banner that read, “What about the black community, Obama?” and began peppering the Senator for not focusing on their concerns.
