  • Believe me the LIBERALS LOVE SLAVERY!!!! Like us, the wage slaves who are constantly making money for them.

  • Obama is related to the guys that sold their fellow Africans to the white men. Contrary to revisionist history, white people didn't capture blacks and made them slaves. In reality, they bought them from other Africans.

  • @1hotdilf Barryis a little ass.

  • In fairness to Zachary Taylor owning slaves was a constitutional right during his presidency no?

  • Michelle gotta big butt!

  • Obama's a liar. He promised to pull out the troops. It's Obama's fault!!!!

  • It would behoove user dude2222111111 not to skip his medication.

  • The Schools dont mention that he also had sex with the slaves male children neither or that he was a Satanist. And by the way if are given freedom by the same people who enslaved you then do u really know what it is to be free?

    i agree with on the the lack of reporting but u need to remember that yeah there so-called four fathers did right the constitution but they were some sick dudes behind closed doors.

    Look Thomas Jefferson and the hellfire club.

  • She's down with the BBC...

  • Owning a slave back then was no different than owning a Furby robot-toy-thingy now. I'll bet 150 years from now, artificially intelligent manufacturing robots will develop "synthetic intelligence," and be making a stink about people who have been long dead who mistreated their AI ancestors. You may think such a future is laughable, but the people 150 years ago probably would think the same of a black man, who still lives with his family, becoming America's president. Laugh while you still can.

  • This news reporter is a piece of work. It's a disgrace to see networks allow such filthy, and traitorous individuals to spread their banter like this. Why does it matter how many slaves our fore-fathers owned? George Washington owned slaves, but public schools fail to mention he freed his slaves to set an example to his fellow countrymen. Socialists like to demonize anything American, whether-or-not the target deserves such slander.
