The President is hearing from increasingly vocal black and brown political elites. Black leaders, especially Congressional Black Caucus leaders, are unhappy with that economic public policy initiatives have not contained special provisions for the black community. Latino leaders are unhappy with the President for his lack of initiative on immigration reform. The President provides a response of sorts here as reported Politico. His basic response, which incidentally is the correct political response, is that he is President of the United States and not president of black or brown America. The real question is whether the grumbling of black and brown elites will make its way down to the black electorate.
