Do you believe that contempt for Obama is unprecedented? If so, do you remember 2001-2009?

Contempt for Obama is only unprecedented with racist republicans, everyone else knows that president Obama has been a great president. President Obama had to come into office in 2009 and clean up the mess that George W. Bush left for him. Over the last 8 years under president Obama's courageous liberal leadership, America has seen record amounts of economic recovery. The unemployment rate is the lowest its ever been.

People's hate of Bush was based on what he did, and how he lied us into Iraq. People's hate of Obama is mostly based on racial animus.

Yes and yes.

Don't get me wrong, SOME of it has precedent, its the added racist bits that go above and beyond the normal hate for public figures that always occurs thats new.

they burned bush in effigy. No one ever did that to obama

politics is a VERY VERY divisive project.

Yes he is.
