To people clucking that the First Black President deserves more respect,
may I suggest that you should have done a better job of picking the First Black President? I mean, Jackie Robinson was a really good ballplayer. If he'd instead, well . . . thrown a baseball like Barack Obama, it would have been different. - - InstapunditPosted by gerardvanderleun at June 30, 2014 11:54 AM.

Your Say
Yeah. There's Emanuel Cleaver, James Clyburn, John Conyers, Elijah Cummings, Danny Davis, and even Sheila Jackson Lee and Eleanor Holmes Norton for the ladies. Then there's Kwame Kilpatrick. He'll be looking for work in 25 years or so. We could have done a lot better. (Better stick a sarc tag on this one. Got mistook for a lib a few dozen comments back)

I don't know if Dr. Ben Carson knows squat about community organizing, but he had the acumen to be a president. Can he throw a baseball? Who knows.

BillH: don't worry. We all know you're a Libertarian. Gerard outed you a while back.
I ain't racist and I ain't sexist but I don't think there are any Blacks or females that are qualified.
Matter of fact, I don't think there are any White folks that can swing the lead either.
If we have a presidential election in '16 I'll write in Putin and Sarah Palin.
My uncle Letsgo Lozko raised bantam chickens and he stopped voting when that jerk promised everyone a chicken in every pot. He wouldn't even take the pot. See, the ward heelers back in Chicago, they were handing out stew pots to people, get them to vote the way they wanted 'em to.
