Seemed like a pretty astute observation on his part.
Being Canadian you won't understand, so Harrier forgives you.

In the United States Constitution - freedom of religion is the first clause in the First Amendment.

What is the Second Amendment?

Quote:
A well regulated militia, necessary for the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
Without the Second Amendment, the rest of the U.S. Constitution is meaningless.

And those were mostly black people.

How many people, given the money, would pay to put their kids in public schools? If that was true, the libs would be for vouchers.

I'm sure you say this about the wives of all politicians you hate.

And since your parents evidently didn't bother to teach you decent human behavior, it's completely out of bounds to go after politician's children in that manner.

Stay classy.

Harrier is still suffering those delusions of Divine grandeur I see.

"Divine Grandeur" is an English concept which us Americans threw off when we defeated your British patrons.

We do acknowlege "In God We Trust" and "liberty and justice for all" which is more than can be said for your currently atheistic nation, whom under Queen Mary, burned people who simply acknowledged Jesus Christ as the Son of God.

This thread demonstrates how it is not Obama that is the primary cause of the political division in the U.S, starting with the OP and the title of the thread. Obama could call for world peace and those that hate on him would come out against world peace.
