"Yummy Yummy Yummy, I've got love in my tummy...."

Victoria Rowell (your mom probably recognizes her as Drucilla, from The Young and the Restless, don’t ask me how I know that) came to the Emmy Awards dressed in what appears to be an Obama tablecloth. Hideous Obama Dress | Oddity Central

'Young and the Restless'?
How about 'Dumb and Tasteless'??

Hmm, isn't this how the supporters of African dictators dress? Google image it people.

Is this the famous stained blue dress?

The "dumb" and "tasteless" are the commentators on this silly post...
The fabric was made in Ghana. Ghanaians often design unique cloths to honor important people. This particular cloth was made to commemorate the recent visit by the POTUS. The black recurring patterns--called adinkra symbols--that run along the top and bottom of the dress communicate specific ethical or spiritual concepts. There are, I think, two prominent adinkra symbols in this pattern. For example, the symbol that sort of resembles "pisces"or "yin-yang" is called Gye Nyame ("except God", i.e. God is superior to all). kzs

Thank you for sharing your multi-culti message, finely filtered through sneering condescension.
Still dumb and tasteless in America.
