Harry Belefonte and His Advice

Harry Belafonte’s Advice to Obama: Imprison Opposition “Like a Third World Dictator”

The video going around the internet of Harry Belefonte's comments are a disturbing look at how some of Obama's backers feel. Belefonte is a man who has enjoyed the freedoms that America holds for it's citizens. For him to suggest we revert to third world behavoir is anti - American as it goes against everything America as a nation strives for both for itself and others. What has caused Belefonte to become so very vile in his thoughts? As a person of wealth in America (his estimated wealth is approximately $28 Million) why would he suggest we lower ourselves to third world behavior? Is that where we are headed with the mind set of Obama's supporters? As a well spoken man you would have thought he would have something intelligent to say, Instead he throws question on his mindset. Some have said it's his age. That is an excuse unless an illness is involved. As an older man of wealth and status in America he should be greatful for a country where he was free to build his business and his career. As a young child I remember hearing Harry Belefonte's name and seeing him perform. He always seemed like a person to look up to. Now I feel bad that someone who was so well treated by America has turned on it and it's freedoms.
