Ted Nugent Just Called Obama A Racist To His Face So Obama Does THIS Ted Nugent is well-known for his conservative opinions and his fearlessness in sharing them. Most recently, Nugent has become a major source of controversy after publicly blasting Al Sharpton and Obama for making race such a prominent issue where it shouldnt be. During a recent interview, Nugent commented on how he has never experienced racism in his 66 years of life until Obama came into office. As a child growing up in Detroit, Nugent claims that he was shattered about how blacks were treated in the past, but did not view the issues as current ones. By the late 60s, the 70s, I couldnt find racism, Nugent remarked. I never saw racism. I never heard of racism. I thought it was a thing of the past in isolated pockets of inbreeding and cannibalism and spiritlessness. He went on to confirm that he never judged people inherently by color, but rather by spirit and soul. Now that Obama has started to make race a constant issue, Nugent claims that he has seen racism for the first time. Obama has clearly and blatantly spoken out with his opinions on racism in cases like Henry Louis Gates and more noticeably Trayvon Martine, when he made a controversial comment about If I had a son Nowhere can I find racism except coming out of the White House, Nugent concluded.
