Tell me about these racial issues he's stirred up. It's supposed to ignore racial injustice simply because it might make racists uncomfortable? Is that what passes for divisive these days?
Where to start! "The police acted stupidly" or his automatic reaction to the lie of "hands up---don't shoot".
Racists uncomfortable? Anything that now annoys a minority is racist. The term has become worthless.
How would it look?
So that's the real reason Obama is trying to ram it through before he leaves office? This is more of his transforming America.
Do everything he can to ****-off the majority while he still can.
We shall see.
Transforming America? Did I stumble onto stormfront?

Just off the top of my head
"The police acted stupidly" - ended up being wrong
"If I had a son he would look like treyvon" Court ruled it was self defense
"When I walk past cars people lock their doors" boo hoo the PRESIDENT is so oppressed
"They ganna put yall back in chains" - vice president
There's more. The point is he shoots his mouth off before even knowing what the facts are. We are having freaking race riots every other month for crying out loud. People are getting hurt, businesses destroyed, but yet he says NOTHING about that. A leader is supposed to bring people together. I've never witnessed such divisiveness in my life.
With regard to race relations, his presidency was a complete failure. No doubt we are worse off than we were when he took office.
Then you have the subtle things like this $20 Tubman that just gets everybody all stirred up for no reason really. What purpose does removing jackson from the 20 benefit our country?
Here's an idea. Why ,if we're so bored with the pictures on our money, can't we use guys like Daniel Boone, Davey Crockett, Alvin York, et al? Hell, I'd sign off on Bass Reeves, or Bill Pickett. An American icon need not be a President.
In all honesty though, just leave it be. The shear cost of these changes is enough to make huge differences in other areas. Do we really need to be spending time and resources worrying about who's picture is on what?
Are there people that actually think Obama was a good president? Unbelievable. He's done absolutely nothing meaningful in his second term. Nothing.
