        Yeah, they've started to give Reagan a break too since he let them down on so many issues. It depends on what day it is.

        He doesn’t know who Jackie Robinson is. May as well be Frederick Douglass.

        We all know the Central Park Five was - and still is to him. He only wants willing conformists....that's what White Supremacists do.

        Ali refused to serve on principle. Trump got out of service by claiming corns.

        In addition was Muhammad Ali a "son of a bitch"? I'm so disgusted that a sitting president would behave in such a manner. Just Ugh!

        Identity in this country is effed up. Why do we relate to rich people who look like us, but have no shared interests?
