Nothing surprises me in this country. Why is it being said he is the first black president when he is 50% white. He is not the first black president he is the first bi-racial president. When people talk to me about him and that he is the first black president, I politely correct them. Personally, I don't care man, woman, black, yellow, white, big, ugly, skinny, etc. I'd just be thrilled to know that whomever was in office truly had my best interest at heart, was honest, made it that when a bill is submitted that it only be for what it is meant to be and not have all the other "incidentals" added on - line item veto needs to be law!. I'm also tired of this country trying to tell other countries what and how to do their business. Look internally first and get our own country in order. Taking care of our poor, sick, homeless, uninsured, etc. should be top priority. Once we take care of ourselves we will be stronger and be able to help other countries in need (not by telling them what/how to do run their countries). Stop giving money to other countries and feed/put clothes on/insure/provide homes/better schools/etc. for our own citizens. Illegal immigrants should not be allowed aid or to live here after all what does the word "illegal" mean! I'm tired of illegal's being given what needs to be given to the true citizens of the US. I'm tired of having sixteen other languages written on every thing I purchase. English is the language and if you don't want to learn it, then leave. Does France, Spain, Italy, etc., have every thing in sixteen other languages. Oh this is only the tip of the iceberg for me. Let me not get started on "tolerance" "politically correct" "press 1 for english" "same sex marriages (geez didn't god make male and female to further produce off spring? if god wanted same sex to do this we'd all been made asexual). I don't care if you are in a same sex relationship, just stop demanding what god did not intend for you to have. We do not go to hell after death, we are living in hell when alive. The devil and his followers are here on earth in the flesh.
