    Dude Obama isn’t that strange to me. He was seriously THE PERFECT “Black Man” and his family was a shining example of a perfect black family.

    I dont mean to diminish what having a black man as president for two terms meant for many people around the country, small ripples possibly making it to the farthest reaches of the world. but come on. I’m white and at the time not particularly invested so much and even still I got the impression most of his energy was spent appeasing his peers who did not like him. And LBR that’s gonna be all Republicans and the media outlets they influence , as well as the unique flavor of racist bigot that only a democrat/white person who loves you can provide.

    /Drunk ramble thanks
