The liberal "diversity" campaign started back in the early nineties. I remember it well. I used to work for principal financial and they forced the company to put us all through a week long diversity course on how we are all bad and have to learn to get along with all walks of life and on and on and if Principal didn't do it they would get their tax rates jacked up by the city/state so of course they did it. Obama is just taking it up a notch so to say as these kooks have been crying and screaming for the last twenty years playing PC with everything to try and create their utopia. Sadly it is they who are the problem not the rest. We just want to be left in peace.

I'm sorry, but you failed to say just who "they" were in your post.
Who is "they"?

BTW, the left loves diversity as long as it's their brand.
So Cajuns and "Georgia crackers" on the beach are part of the "left"?

What a bunch of nonsense.

Just more Obama-bashing "spin" from a right-wing source.

BTW, gay people are part of the fabric of American life and society ... what is so hard to understand about that?

"Two years ago, the Travel Promotion Act of 2010 established the Corporation for Travel Promotion, or Brand USA. This “public-private entity“ was tasked with ”rekindling the world’s love affair with the USA – the place, the spirit, and the dream,” according to Brand USA’s CEO Jim Evans. Brand USA is... governed by an 11-member board of directors appointed by Obama’s Secretary of Commerce."

"Brand USA has recently come out with a series of ads, playing now in the UK, Japan and Canada...The ads are intended to ”open up some minds as to what America really is,” according to...a Brand USA spokesperson."

"But the new ads, titled “Land of Dreams,” deviate alarmingly from the patriotic baseball, apple pie and picket fence vision of “traditional” America. In fact, the only cowboy featured in the ad is…raking a beach?"


White House Portrays America Oversees With Gay Couple and Hindu Festival | John Connor | Video | TheBlaze.com

So, what do you think? Does this truly represent America? Should the White House be deciding for us what "America really is?" and spreading that image around the world? In whose image is this "recreation of America?"
Have you ever travelled around your own country? (or outside of it)

As an Australian, I've visited the US 6 times and I love the diversity.

I wouldn't be at all interested in seeing the suburbs of some all-white, all-straight, all-Christian-conservative small town with everyone going to church on Sunday and eating apple pie afterwards.

It must be difficult being a xenophobe.
