I see forces of Law and Order getting disgruntled; their authority questioned, their belief in their neutrality shaken. They'll be that much more primed to see "attitude". On the other side, I see black people fuming, more and more, and seeing the flip side of such attitude in those forces of Law and Order.

Things look as though they're brewing up to a fine old explosion, to me. God knows how I'd handle it, in Obama's position: but I'll bet that he wants to, perhaps above everything else, before he checks out of the White House.

Me, in his position, my instinct would be to get the most firebrand of each side together, in the White House. Get them to argue their bollocks off with each other. Get it all out. And then hammer out an agreement whereby they all agree to ratchet *down* the friction, for the sake of easy race-relations. He needs to mix up the Farrakhans with with redneck southern-state bullet-heads.

As President I think you pretty much have to rise above the standard right wing / left wing griefs, as best you can. It's your job, basically. Obama's not a dimwit. I'm sure he'll realise that.

So many problems with this post.
A Obama always assumes the whites are wrong
B Obama always assumes the police are wrong
C Radicals on both sides want to increase the level of racial tension so that would simply give both a platform to spread their hate
D Only reasonable people can ease tensions and you want to give the floor to the haters
E Of course Obama can see this, the question is does he really want to ease tension. The more tension, the more black votes Dems get.

Well, you're no doubt more aware than I am that a) a large chunk of whites will always assume that it's the blacks who are to blame while b) a large chunk of blacks will always assume it's the whites who are to blame. It's the intransigents amongst both groups who need to be talked to. The 'reasonables' on both sides aren't the problem.

A. That's not even remotely true. Only the heir to the kingdom of idiots would arrive at this notion given all the evidence against it.
B . See the previous answer....
C. Radicals on the right want to increase tensions towards all minority groups. Those on the left are kept under a short leash and muzzle. Your side doesn't do a good job because you do not keep your radicals locked up and gagged!
D. Which political side do the following haters seem to vote:
1. The Klan?
2. Neo Nazi?
3. Militia Man Movement?
4. Soveriegn Citizens?
5. Birthers?
6. Truthers?
7. 'Low Information Voters'
8. FOX 'news' watchers

As none of these groups of people seem to be voting Democrat, nor voted for Obama in either election. They all voted Republican and Tea Party. Your 'side' of the political spectrum seems to have the monopoly on hatred, intolerance, and fear. Or are you going to argue that FOX 'news', The Drudge Report, and Stormfront put everything into politically-neutral grounds for information purposes?

E. If what your stating is true, then it would be fair to state the GOP/TP wants to increase tensions on whites in the hopes more will vote them into office. This is fortunately, not true. Racial tensions have been a constant struggle in this nation. Long before the 'change' in political viewpoints. Back in the 90's, the Republican Party was all about innovation, capitalism and small business development. Now adays, its without a real platform or clue, but they are all strictly uniformed in their ideology. Which is to say the party was once fairly liberal and then became semi-theoretically conservative. The Democrats were rather conservative until Mr. Clinton's second term. Which is why DOMA pass then, but wouldn't have a prayer of doing so in 2015 by a Democrat.
