Obama's administration Cultural Insensitivity

    Native Americans are actually indignant at using the name of a resistance hero, i.e. Geronimo in the hunt operation of Ben Laden. Sadly enough, some Native Americans, this has become the usual. It is ironical that they are marginalized on their own land. More ironically, the African American who belongs to a race has been persecuted for centuries is not sensitive enough to the history of those people. He is not cultured or anything. African Americans have won many rights but other ethnicities in the American society have not.
    Apparently, there are no affinity between the ethnicities in the American society. However, at a deeper level there are just between  the artists and the intellectuals. For example, the Arab American poetess Suhier Hamad refers to herself as both an Arab and a Black woman. Obama has proven to be neither a good orator or an intellectual or anything. He is just a commoner who has used the plight of his race to propagate for himself. This is a typical scene in the American political scene.
