Alexander O'Neil, who is on tour in the UK,  gave a very compelling interview on Russia Today a few days ago, in which he assessed the Obama legacy. It was truly rivetting. In his view, Obama did absolutely nothing for black Americans, and in fact his 8 year rule set back the black struggle for emancipation several decades back. He comes from Missisippi and he says the conditions of the black people there worsened rather than improved under Obama. He says Obama ruled just for the rich and completely ignored the poor. He says he does not support Donald Trump, but wants him to be given a chance. Trump has promised jobs, so let him be put to the test. When reminded that Trump is a racist and has history of racist abuse, he said he would rather deal with an open racist, rather than a closet or hidden racist. Better to fight an enemy that you can  see, rather than one who stabs you from the back. 

O'Neil's views are almost the same views that I personally hold- the only difference is that I am not prepared to give Trump a chance to make the situation of black people worse than it is now.

Check O'Neil on RT if you are connected. Otherwise, he also talks about his battle with cocaine, alcohol etc  and path his path to recovery.
