USA president elect Barack Obama used the n-word to make the point that racism is still alive and well in America.
According to TMZ Obama was on comedian Marc Maron's podcast, when he said, "And it's not just a matter of it not being polite to say n***** in public. That's not the measure of whether racism still exists or not."
It was a calculated move for sure on Obama's part. Obama has been criticized by some African Bottom of Form American activists, including Byron Allen, for not speaking out more forcefully about the plight of blacks in America.
