He never misses a chance to inject race. Obama gets personal over killing of black Florida teenager

Notice that when he is disparaging an Hispanic, Obama calls him a "white Hispanic".
When he's sucking up for race votes its the underprivileged or the hard working Hispanics who do the jobs whites won't do.
Nice to have our first non-post racist president!

WASHINGTON/SANFORD, Florida | Fri Mar 23, 2012 
(Reuters) - President Barack Obama weighed into the controversial killing of a black teenager in Florida in very personal terms on Friday, comparing the boy to a son he doesn't have and calling for American "soul searching" over how the incident occurred.
Seventeen-year-old Trayvon Martin, dressed in a "hoodie" sweatshirt, was shot dead a month ago in Sanford, Florida by a 28-year-old white Hispanic neighborhood watch volunteer who said he was acting in self-defense.
"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon," Obama said in his first comments about the shooting, acknowledging the racial element in the case.
"Obviously, this is a tragedy," Obama told reporters. "I can only imagine what these parents are going through. And when I think about this boy, I think about my own kids."
