Obama became POTUS during a time of great financial turmoil. His main goal was ensuring that the U.S. banking, securities and bond industries did not collapse which would have led to another Depression. It was touch and go for a while. But Obama managed to stave off world wide breadlines. That was doing something for Blacks since Obama's skillful maneuvering with government loans protected the jobs of hundreds of thousands of Blacks.
