Obama, black president of THE exceptional nation and white dominance is a compendium of contradiction. but when you are exceptional all that applies to you apply to no others. you have the right to exist on both sides of the same coin at all times.
Obama. Tears :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
