The election of a man that has a white mother and an African father to the presidency of the United States has made the hardhearted more hateful. The hatred seen now is so direct and open that robes and letters aren’t necessary.
The opposition to the president and attorney general of the United States over the last four years makes the KKK look mild and tame. The old cross-burning looks better than calling the president a liar during his State of the Union speech and holding the attorney general in contempt of Congress.
The people in Congress are there to make President Barack Obama and Eric Holder look bad at all cost and make sure that the president is not reelected. The openness of the haters is the saddest thing of all; it has made the people of this country and others believe that race relationships in this country has stepped back to 60 years ago.
There will be more nonwhites in this country than whites in 25 years or less, so we need to overcome the skin problems and be the UNITED States of America.
