The story behind this post goes like this. I'm sitting in my dorm watching reruns on BET and all of a sudden, a commercial comes on. "Do you want you very own piece of the American dream? Then get your VERY OWN Obama sneakers!!" Needless to say, I immediately had a "wtf" moment. I was even more flabbergasted when the commercial added that not only do you get the sneakers but, "an Obama basketball free with purchase!"..... Naturally, I assumed this must be a joke but, after further research I found out it wasn't. I couldn't believe it. This is so disappointing and disrespectful to our president. No other president had ridiculous memorabilia, let alone some damn sneakers & a basketball. And why is he on these things in particular? Because he's black? *side eye* Why not just put him on a bucket of chicken & the side of a watermelon. And while their at it, we might add Michelle to pack of weave. Don't make any sense. Until, we put president Clinton on a box of condoms & president Bush on a cowboy hat & a rifle, people need to stop.
