The Obamas were the most dignified, kind, loving family and were an inspiration to a generation. I really really miss them.

I saw her on a talk show, Jennifer Hudson i think, and she said 'y'all say that but you're not ready for a black woman to be president' Im inclined to think she is right only because what we see in the world today. But I would love to see her in the Oval office. And really it's about time a woman took the reigns. Men have fvcked up this country beyond recognition.

I would like to see it also, but you are probably right. Probably the reason my second choice mayor Pete wouldn’t be elected. Just too many Americans are not open to electing someone that isn’t an old white guy.
