Well said, Jack.

I'm seeing words on this List that offend me.  You don't have to like 
Obama's politics, but he is an intelligent, educated, articulate human 
being who came from very modest roots and made something of  himself.  If 
you don't respect that, then you live in the wrong country.  And if you 
think that one person can annex and brainwash the United States of America, 
then you need to go study the constitution.  When it comes down to it, the 
President doesn't do very much on his own, without the approval of alot of 
other people.

Presidents don't grind up this country's citizenship, this citizenship 
grinds up its Presidents (as it should be).
