Obama fears his own daughters will suffer from racism: President tells of concern for Sasha and Malia in full interview addressing anti-police protests

    'I want them to be judged based on....their behavior and their talents and their gifts,' Obama told BET's Jeff Johnson
    Obama said he doesn't want his future grandson 'to be subjected to the kind of constant bias that makes them feel as if this is not their home'
    He also said he believes the Eric Garner video 'troubled' Americans of all walks of life, including some police officers
    The president hit back at critics who say he's not taken the recent killings of black men seriously enough: 'I'm being pretty explicit about my concern'

President Barack Obama got unusually personal during an interview about race relations that aired Monday night on BET.

The president spoke about his experiences as a young black man and opened up about concerns he has about the way his daughters, Sasha and Malia, and future grandsons could be treated in society because of their skin color.

'I want my children to be seen as the individuals that they are, and I want them to be judged based on the content of their character and their behavior and their talents and their gifts,' he told BET's Jeff Johnson.

'I don't want them to be objects of fear simply because of misguided attitudes.'

Of course, Barry Hussein was judged solely on the basis of his skin color his entire life - to his substantial benefit (and our detriment).

That's a fact. Although, I don't mind admitting that as long as it negatively impacts Barack Obama, I'm for it.
