Who made the rule that we should respect any President?

That is a government created illusion that we have to "respect the office" so we will not question them.

My assertion is still true irrespective of whether Adolph is a popular name or not.

There was a time when ALL women were treated differently inside the work place, and it's still happening today with some women regardless of race.
Patiently waiting for you to comment on the anti-black posts being made in this thread. Right, of course not.

Because the most important attributes of what a President shoud be and do, is completely ingored. I personally don't have friends who do not like him because of his color, that is a bogus lie. Sure there are racist people on every side of the aisle, and this will never change.

I had friends who voted for him both times, but as of last year, started to completely change about their feelings for him, we did not change their feelings for him, Obama did this by himself. With his carefree arrogant bullish attitude and playing the blame game 24/7.

We don't live in the past any of us and can't move forward, with people thinking the way they do.

The majority of my friends i said mine are not racist in any way, so many of them from bi-racial families. You cannot blame skin color for the reason that most do not like Obama.

Has to do with a important issue, it is called having Integrity, Being Sincere, Having a mature attitude not a bullish one, if people dare go up against you. It is many many things, no person i know dislikes him because of his bi-racial background. He is not only black but white.

After seeing him around for a while, most people can pick not only one thing but many that does come into mind, and skin color ain't one of them.

Not ok for any one person to pick out others for being a racist, if all that comes out of their mouth is nothing but racist remarks!

like i said, i think the majority of people arnt using race as a reason to disrespect obama, but the white conservative male notion that race is never a reason why obama is disliked is just stupid and comical.

like i said, you have organizations of white male conservatives like stormfront, vnn, council of conservative citizens that are organizations with the mission of attacking black leaders and black people in general.

Not going to argue the point, But fair to say that the hatred goes two ways! There are a lot of organizations preaching hatred.

The majority of good decent caring people are not racist, at all, and seems we are totally ignored.

And you have to admit, racisim is a readily excuse today used by many when they ain't got nothing else. It is just used too frequently somehow sometimes seems for convenience.

Lol, yep every time Obama bombs out comes the race card. Obama could drone the hood and if anyone spoke out against it they would still defend him.

Funny how if you admire and respect the wrong black you are still considered racist. You are only not racist if you bow down and kiss Obamas back side. If that is the racism test, then I am going to fail it. I have no use for the policies of Obama and I won't make any bones about it. If that makes me racist, then so be it. I don't care at this point. You think whatever you wish. In my mind, you are the one still "on the plantation", you've just changed masters.
