I could care less if it's a red, black, white, or brown man .....
the job they do matters more to me. I fall on both sides of the line when it comes to values that I vote on.
I thin k President Obama did more to set race relations back than anything and anyone in the last 45 or so years.
I still think those arms and hands belong on MJ than a female

Cards on the table... I didn't vote for him in 2008. But I gave him a chance. He was our Commander in Chief. If he had been effective in those 4 years I'd casted my vote for him in 2012. He didn't. If anything he made life for me a little hectic with slashing of budgets, regulations, Obamacare, and almost putting the company I work for outta business or the side I was on.
Truth be told I was for Ben Carson. It's not the man's race but what he stood for. I liked Carson because he wasn't a DC critter and to do the things he's done, means he's no fool and would hopefully surrounded himself with smart people. He dropped out and threw support behind Trump I wasn't sure and was leaning towards Gary Johnson. Just couldn't look past his gaffes on foreign policy. Two weeks before the election I knew I wasn't voting Hillary. Alabama would swing Trump. And I was doing research and came across his contract with the American people. I knew he wasn't a politician. I said what's the worst that could happen and in 4 years I could swap votes.

Fair enough. I did vote for him first time around but I did not for vote for him in his second term. i’m morally conservative and I don’t like what he did in that arena. Overall I thought he had a disappointing presidency.

It's a fine painting, just doesn't look like Michelle Obama. At least the one of Barack looks like him.
They both look pissed in their portraits.
Or perhaps constipated? Yea, could be the latter. Stopped up.

No, no, that's not true. We don't like it that it was an incompetent black man. Color had nothing to do with this dislike...(I'm told it's not nice to hate). So I'm not.

Ok fair enough. And 100% similar to the current white imcompetent bafoon we have in office now. Looks like we both agree.

That is the thing the left will never accept. Hell, the fact a black man got elected President was exciting. Then we found out we elected an America hating, Muslim loving socialist for President was the problem. Had zich to do with what his skin color was. The left just has to beat that dead horse.

Yeah, I had hopes that he would be a unifier, but he was the opposite. Knew I wouldn't like his policies, but it was his taking up the mantle of "Divider-in-chief" that was disappointing. I almost voted for him in the primary to stop Hillary even though I figured he would be tougher for McCain to beat. My wife did. But he was every bit as divisive as HRC.
