Charles Barkley, the voluble former professional basketball star, thinks people criticizing President Barack Obama for filling out a “March Madness” bracket are racist.

“You people in America who are upset that President Obama did a bracket, why don’t ya’ll just go say you don’t like him because he’s black,” Barkley told TMZ while leaving the London Hotel in New York City.

Barkley’s comments come after actor Charlie Sheen told the Hollywood gossip website that Obama was “wasting … time when the world is in the state it’s in right now” on his NCAA bracket.

“Just go ahead and say it … cut through all the B.S, don’t say he takes too many vacations, just say we don’t like him because he’s black … that’ll cut through the middle man,” Barkley said. “Y’all want to believe he’s from Kenya, so come on, man. Stop making a big deal out of everything,” he said.

Barkley, who has recently been critical of Obama’s presidency, said he would nonetheless take his opinion on basketball “over any other president” because he’s “actually played the game.”

“But they need to cut through the B.S., man,” Barkley said.
