3. not only are they not up to the job, they are on a different agenda. Their purpose is to

reward the richest people in the world with money gained from depriving the poor.

4. Exactly why they have been so very very angry the last 8 years.

President Barack Obama proved that a non old white man could not only do the job, but to be blunt, do it better than almost all of his predecessors.

Couple exceptions, FDR and Lincoln, maybe.

No president was less scandalized or more decent and honest. No other president was subjected to a fraction of the hate and obstruction he was, and yet he did everything in his power to be nonpartisan. He even went so far as to offer up Social Security (which I was not happy about), but their blind racist hatred of him prevented them from jumping on that.

When he said Trayvon Martin could have been his son, the opposition party lost their minds. He could have been his son, and the comment was perfect and in a sane world would never would it be seen as divisive.

5. Old white men make it much easier to live in the distant past.

Old white men also really resist change. "Making America Great Again?"
