President Obama has had like 1000 different smears thrown at him
The Clinton's had 100s. (remember the idiotic Vince Foster and Halle Boggs stories that still pop up from time to time).

I can't recall any presidents before that have had all this thrown at them day after day after day after day

When is this crap going to stop forever.

Why does racism still exist? Didn't we win a war to stop it? Didn't we sign the Civil Rights Acts?
Why are some still living in 1850s???

(yet Mr. Trayvon Martin was killed in cold blood for just living in the same town where 70 years earlier a lynch mob
forced Jackie Robinson to flee during spring training in Sanford Florida.

WHY?

The best satisfaction though is knowing Barack Obama is President. They cannot take his name away.
President Barack Obama.

When they have nothing to hit one with, they resort to things like this

Through all of time, it will always remain PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA.
(same as it has Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt(s), Johnson (2(, Kennedy, Carter, Clinton(s) etc.
