I think it is a great honor. It pays respecks to a man that truly helped a demographic when it needed it the most.


That might be true if he actually helped them. However, blacks and other minorities had higher rates of unemployment at the end of the Obama presidency than at the beginning.

Also, race relations deteriorated significantly during Obama’s presidency.

"From where do you people come?" would be correct.

Maybe you'd learn good English if you didn't learn from a Kenyan Muslim.

Her "diversity" comment notwithstanding, she has a point. I bet Jefferson Davis would be pissed that his name is on a school with 97% black enrollment.

Yep, the guy who gave his family land to a former slave of his would be outraged. The same guy who adopted a black child definitely be pissed.

To be fair, the rule about ending a sentence with a preposition is not based on logic and doesn't make English more efficient. It's a rule created long ago by people trying to equate the rules of Latin grammar with English. The rule had a purpose in Latin but serves no purpose in English.

I'm sure that will improve their test scores.


Lol. So true. But scores and an education matter very little to JPS.

Fair points, but also I would like to point out: shut up.
