I agree with all of the above. But what is ironic is he isn’t offically President yet. Tie this with a school named after him and all of the Inaugurationl marketing items with his face plastered all over. High dollar items at that! I’m surprised they haven’t come out with money already with his face. I’m sorry, but I just can’t reconcile myself to the fact I have to live with this idiot calling the shots for the next 4-8.

This country has gone crazy trying to appease the consciences of white people who are made to feel guilty by black people. My ancestors where not here during slavery and I am tired of while guilt. I have had many black friends but this is getting rediculous. Most white people are taking a back seat in sports. College football and basketball is mostly blacks on scholarships who leave to join the pros and never finish a degree. I wonder if that is considered fair to those academically superior students who struggle to pay their tuitions. Where is the fairness in that? In this country, we are told we can be anything we want to be if we work hard enough. Tell that to HIllary Clinton.

Maybe when Chris Mattews is a candidate we women can give him a real taste of what it is like to be on the receiving end of a down and dirty campaign. I am loving the idea of people digging up dirt and throwing it on him. COULD NOT HAPPEN TO A NICER GUY!!!!! And as for the the Barack Obama holiday,that is insane.Correct me if I am wrong, but we had a president asassinated in 1963, and to the best of my knowledge there is no holiday for him. [ guess race counts more than a president who actually accomplished some things without lying and cheating to get there. Go figure.And by the way, is it only a half day holiday since he is only half black? He only mentions his white half when it is beneficial to him.

I would love to see Matthews leave MSNBC only to lose the election in PA. I hope there are other Democratic challengers so women and Clinton supporters won’t have to pick a Republican just because this asshat is running.
