When American hostages were taken I was a high school student in Tehran. The spokewoman for hostages was a 19 year young girl by the name of Maesoomeh Ebtekar. Her son is currently studying in U.S. Criminal mullahs kept the white hostages in captivity for 2 years, but they let the black go back to America. As a result, black community in America was chearleading Mullahs and Iranian students in America.
In those days, I didn't have any clue about racism in America, but I learned later on that Iranian students, especially the ones who were studying in southern states such as Texas, suffered a lot. I heard many stories about Iranian hardship during hostage crisis, but never saw any literature to address that issue. Many Iranian students end up to marry to black women due to virtue of racism in white dominate society. The cast system was simple. Iranians with lighter skin color or caucasian features could easily blend into the society and Iranian with darker skin color faced the most miserable time in their life. All the sudden, Obama became president in 2008. His first move was to open his arm and embrace ruling criminal mullahs in Iran because they released his people several years ago. That open the line of communication between Mullahs' lobby in Washington D.C (N.I.A.C) and White House. Maesoomeh Ebtekar's son became friend of Obama and N.I.A.C members were going in and out of White House. However, those idiots didn't realize founder of America were people such as George Washington, Thomas Jeferson. Q. Adams.... etc. They all were decendant of European countries such as Trump, Bolton and Michael pompo, NOT from African like Obama. Obama's father was from Kenya. In Keneya, there are still some tribes who practicing canabalism.(Eating another human flesh). Obama foolishly sent huge amount of money to ruling criminal mullahs in Iran. Mullahs sent half of that money to Hezbollahs in Lebanon and they put the other half into their pockets. Obama behaved the same way the other black people behave in America. Race plays major role in America's politic and we rarely see any Iranian talk about it. Many people voted to Obama simply because he was black.
Once I met an Indian medical doctor who was telling me he was kicked out of restaurant many times during Apartheid in South Africa because he was NOT white. He developed inferiority complex along with hate against people from European descend such as Trump or Bolton. I see similarity between those Iranians who had hardship during hostage crisis and that Indian doctor. There is a psychology behind those people who hate president Trump. Those animacities or hatred has nothing to do with politic. The issue is pscychological.
All of us at one point or another (Way before obama) were called sand niggers and coons and yes it was tough back then (I recall one of our roommates even got a gun in fear of people braking in to the house) but we survived , thrived and moved on. In any case the country is darkening now and soon U.S will look something like Brazil socially, politically and culturally.
MRX,
If I am not mistaking "Sand Nigger" is a racial slur used for Arabs, NOT Persians because Persians are NOT arabs. I slso heard, from the people who lived during shah days in America, Iranians were well respected in America and around the world. The problem started when criminal mullahs took power in Iran.
Like I said before, Iranians were divided in 2 groups. One is the lighter skin color or caucasin features. This group easily blended in American society. Darker skin color or people with African feature experienced hardship immensely. They have hard time as we are speaking now.
My point is Mexicans, blacks and other minorities demonstrate hostility toward Trump and his adminstration, Their problem is NOT related to Trump performance as a president. Their problem is race related issue which has nothing to do with politic. Those who llived in southern states such as of TX or Alabama...etc. during hostage crisis carry the feeling of inferiority along with hostility toward Trump and his administration and speak of Obama very highly. Even though Trump is doing well, they still see him as impotent. The issue is personal and racial and has nothing to do with politic. They're motivated by hardship they experienced in Anglo dominate society.
On the other hand, Obama whose ancestors came from slavery time felt sympathetic toward this group of Iranians and wanted to be friend with them.
MRX,
Please read this article I just posted aobut Trump presidency and the comment you mentioned about Brizil. Please read it carefully, the statistic and economy situation after failed Obama's policy.

Hate is a loaded word, and should not be thrown around like cookies... Those of us who dislike Jimmy, and Zbigniew also have a psychological problem. And one question... Now, with Obama gone and IRI agents evacuated from the W.H, which kinda irooni is being consulted by the Trump gang? Maryamic Iranians, Rezaic Iranians, or are there some real Iranian scholars and pundits with their heart and soul fixated on the goodness of our meehan and nothing else, who are giving advice to Mr. President's team?... Who?
I don't think any certain political group give any advise to Trump administration because even Mullahs' lobby (N.I.A.C) can pose as opposition and give the same services they were providing for the former president.
Trump administration make their own decision based on what is good for America, NOT for Iranians. The problem with Obama was the fact he was sympathetic toward criminal mullahs because they let his people go. All black folks were released from captivity during hostage crisis. As a result, Obama became friendly with Maesoomeh Ebtekar's son or people alike. Obama's eagerness to work with them was a racial isssue, NOT political. Trump doesn't have that complex or inferiority complex, so he doesn't need to pick certain poltical group over the others for consultation. That also make him better president for America.
