I actually have to agree with something Barack Obama has (reportedly) said: https://www.foxnews.com/entertainme...re-for-foisting-bad-values-on-young-men.

Gist of what's reported is that he stated that young men are not taught good values early on, and that pop culture informs their behavior. I believe he made some of the same points while he was in office. My only disagreement with him is that it is not just young men, but young women as well.

Left unsaid is the fact that liberal policies such as the Great Society are the main reason that the situation exists. But at least it's a baby step and I'm compelled to agree with even a socialist like BHO when he swerves into the truth.


The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.

He jerked the wheel and briefly brushed up against the truth but he's going down the other lane most of the time.

Horseshcidt!.... If he wanted to “ address the nation “ all the Networks would give him the time and he would draw a bigger audience than the POTUS. He will be a main player the rest of his life.

But pop culture is not history. It is here and it is now and it is complicit in destroying the values that made America great. Most on the Campfire see this, but it is good when an ex-President sees it as well and gives voice to it. I agree he is a POS and as far as the presidency is concerned he is history, but he still has a high profile and a platform which he can use to elevate the issue.
