Oprah's term of playing god has expired, boitumelo, She can't even get her OWN net work off the ground, much less alleviate the "black problem".

It's possible for a black person to exist independently of the group. Personal responsibility helps. Not bogging oneself down with the baggage that is the result of poor decision making can improve chances. This is pretty much what Oprah embodies and the message she has been dispensing over the years. And pretty much the message the the black underclasses ignore, which is why they are a part of the problem, not the solution. Black "leaders" can only do so much.

Solving the problems of Black folk is not entertaining. Oprah can't make money or support a network doing that.

If she got the Jessies and Eddies on a read them the riot for all their nonsense - that would get folks watching. But that will never happen.
