been the target of this most vile and false allegation.

Do you realize how ridiculous that is? Lol, I'm sure you'll get a few to help you try to spread that around, but a majority of people are sick to death of the smear campaigns against good people. I hope you don't think that attacking those who tell the truth is the way to get Democrats elected?

I notice you've been working hard on this smear. How many threads have you been in with this false allegation so far?

What MM said was a fact, unless we've had another Minority President that none of us remember. Of course Obama will be remembered for being the first African American president, just as the first woman, if we ever get one, will be remembered for that.

Are you saying Obama is NOT the first African American to become president?? Explain that please.
