We spent four years ignoring the fact that Melania Trump posed nude --

97. Yes, these Trumps are disgusting, foul people you wouldn't even want in your house.

The racism that was aimed at Obama during his entire term made me sick. Obama was great. I didn't always agree with everything he did, but he had some truly huge accomplishments. And no indictments, and no convictions.

Plus, I sure felt safe when he was in the White House - like he had it all under control. I was proud to be an American when Obama interacted with other world leaders. The guy was great. A genuinely good, moral man who was an excellent president.

The fact he was an excellent president, though, was just too much for these racists, and that makes me so angry. Once, in early 2009 when I was in the office, I was talking about some of the good things Obama and the Democrats were doing to keep the world from going into a depression. A young colleague looked at me, crossed her arms over her chest and said, "Obama is a MESS."

Just like that.

He wasn't a mess. If you look objectively at his presidency, he advanced good, solid policies that actually improved things. But this young woman couldn't see beyond race. And he endured so many snubs. Michelle too.

And that 'birtherism' was just more racist bullshit. God, it makes me mad.

Sorry for the rant, but when I compare a stand-up guy like Obama to a dirtbag like Trump, it...well, you know.

On edit: corrected sentence about no indictments and no convictions. Obama had plenty of personal conviction, you see, but NO convictions!
