If EX was implying that Obama was at a greater risk because he was Black I'm sure he would've stated so . But to that I would respectfully disagree. All the incidents I detailed occured in the last century. Quite a few assassinations and failed attempts relative to the number of people who have held the office.

I'm not sure if EX was addressing that aspect either. I am though, and your argument falls flat. Neither TR or RFK were assaulted for being born Black. Obama undoubtedly will carry that extra burden among hateful racist, however small the percentages. I'm very confident that MLK Jr. would agree with me wholeheartedly, if he were only alive.
