A Canadian's view of our disrespect of our own President. Interesting.

61. true, what you say here

race has always been used as a wedge issue by the ignorant and brilliants. Atwater was one of those. The Democratic Party lost it's moral bearing, I think, with Nixon's 'southern strategy' being such a success. We never regained our footing. Reagan sealed our fate and it has been a slowly increasing slide to the bottom of who know where. This country will NEVER regain it's moral leadership in the world community's eyes, military yes, moral NO. The last 6 years has made this country a laughing stock when it comes to claiming moral leadership. McConnell a leader? No. Rand Paul a leader? No. Nancy Pelosi a leader? No. Harry Reid a leader? No. The only person that has tried to lead is Barack Obama, but with the corporate nature and influence of their big money, that our Party has partaken of, he never stood a chance.
