    Hi Rosie:

    Not necessarily true. Obama is half black and half white, and in college he said that he didn't feel comfortable in either group.

  • A good prez will represent everyone.. he will care and look out for the interests of America as a whole. Obama was black, or half black but he cared for the welfare of the nation as a whole... Trump is a devisive pig who cares for no one but himself.. he doesn't even care about the right wing uneducated who voted him in. he used them... and will think nothing of kicking them down too.

    Well said.  I never felt Barrack Obama was just a black president representing black people.  I felt like he was genuine in wanting his presidency to be all inclusive.

    Why are you so concerned with elections in which you cannot and don't vote?

    He was great when he supported our police wasn't he? He sure did a lot to help the good people of Chicago didn't he? He was real special apologizing all over the word to enemies, right? He did a great job eliminating prayer in school. He also passed a Unaffordable care act and lied to the people,I could go on more but what's the point?

  • Oh! I take it you aren't a fan then? Lol you know what? By the end, if you all make it that far, of Trump's presidency you will be thinking of Obama as a saint

  • A friend said that America has done worse things than vote an utter incompetent narcissist in... really? Well I hate to think what?? But of course I am no expert! America has had some pretty nutso presidents in it's time, we all just laugh at them because they are relatively harmless to the rest of the world.. That is NOT the case however with Trump.

    No Caucasian or African-American for that matter will ever represent me. I represent myself. At least I know that it's not possible to corrupt myself. This post was edited by Zack at January 15, 2017 1:58 PM MST

  • The question is itself a revelation of the problem. The American President used to be the president of all Americans. In this divided society, I suppose that all of that has changed. We've lost much in recent years.
