If one wants to settle the issue of whether Ronald Reagan deserves to be called “The First Black President,” he or she need only examine this quote by Ronald Reagan.

“If an individual wants to discriminate against Negroes or others in selling or renting his house, it is his right to do so.” — Ronald Reagan

If you were a bigot having a little fun. I guess you could call him that.

I actually found the article “How to Draw Obama” to be interesting.

It’s an interesting question. All caricatures of politicians (or any caricature) are loony. That’s the point. But if you caricature a black person you are always opening yourself up to criticism for being racist.

So political cartoons are not allowed? I think it’s a fair question: How to caricature a minority in an acceptable way.

NR, Speaking as someone who was home-schooled until the 9th grade, I am quite well-read of my own accord, and understood easily both “cameo” and “promulgated.”

I am sure you are aware of children that public school education has failed, and private and home-schooling fails some kids.

I think it is a sweeping generalization to assume that all home-schooled children are unintelligent. Browsing the articles, I was a little offended that the author felt the need to define certain words.

I tried to excuse it by saying some teens may not know the definition of eugenics, but then I quickly realized that, as I have a Republican Christian background, I am very familiar with the term, and any teenager reading this magazine would also be well aware of it.

Those definitions are put there solely for the home-schoolers… But actual really hard words like “promulgated” are NOT defined…

Pretend that these things being said were being done in Iran, North Korea or even on UK or Japan – Would the Americans see it as anti-American?

Whether you like it or not President Obama is the president of our country. The office deserves respect by Americans and I see this as unpatriotic at the very least.

Liberals, Gays, Women, Minorities are a part of our country. I am just as American as an old white christian man from Alabama and to demonize me is to demonize America.

You can criticize a policy without doing what these people are doing.
