You mean Barack Obama's economic meltdown.

I see that you have forgotten who is the president - or maybe you want to forget, given the unmitigated disaster that President Obama has been.

Yes because black colleges usually have more students needing aide to go to it, but I don't know many people who can afford to go to college these days without financial aide, regardless of the person's color.

Obama was the president in 2007-2008? That is news to me.

Nope - the Democrats in control of Congress from 2007 on wrecked the economy. President Bush and other Republicans warned Congress multiple times that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were going to implode due to the misguided aggresive enforcement of the Community Reinvestment Act that began in the Clinton Administration. President Bush called for reform and was rebuffed by the Democratic controlled Congress.

Democrats in Congress caused the recession, which you would know if you actually were interested in learning historical facts, rather than imbibing and then regurgitating LWNJ propaganda that you hear on MSNBC.

He was a U.S. Senator then, a Democrat, and congressional Democrat policies causes the recession.

After Barack Obama assumed the presidency, he continued the same bad policies that got us into the mess in the first place, and made the situation worse.

Now you're blaming congress. Why dont you blame congress now? That's right...doesn't fit the narrative.

That is the problem with those that re-write history...most can't keep their stories straight.
