.do I believe the Bagger movement arose because of a sincere analysis of their economic and social condition. It was founded purely because they went bat s%#T over seeing Barack Obama in the most powerful position in the country. Their entire "political" movement is based on their visceral reaction to him as a Black man. That alone is the cause of the Bag Movement.
As time went on, pundits and funders, such as Koch, gave them rationales as "reasonable" covers for their behavior. But they are, and always will be, the sons and daughters of the Confederacy trying to reassert.
The Obamas had to put up with an entire, organized, hateful, movement. It's an incredible tribute to the Obama family that they have remained intact and unbowed.
The rest of the world knows exactly what happened in America with all this.
