    Another state that Obama knows he doesn't have locked, if you needed hot air there will be plenty to spare on this trip.

    Chose love over hate. The Republican party is full of haters. All Republicans are not racists but all racists are Republicans. Believe me, I have met a few of these and I will not vote for a party that has these people as members and they are proud of it.

      It sounds like you're the one who chose hate. You'll twist reality whichever way you need to, won't you?
