48. He has zero machoismo "cred" with repukes.

Nov 2015

A black nerd has less than zero sex appeal. Nobody really wants to have to listen to a very un-masculine Urkel/goody two-shoes.

Obama has a dynamite back story as a guy that overcame so much to eventually become President. However, their guy has no personality outside of being a un-masculine, nerd, in a eccentric fundy religion. Notice they talk about the Jezuz a lot but not what his religion actually is. That's not a good image to push to the masses.

The story of him being "violent/bad boy" & being offered a West Point "scholarship" try to portray him as some interesting macho-man, fails under the scrutiny of sunshine.
