Riviera Beach renamed Old Dixie Highway in honor of President Barack Obama during a ceremony on Thursday, a change that city officials say will help move the community past its segregated history.

It is the second road in Palm Beach County to be named in honor of the 44th president, county officials said. Two years ago, Pahokee in western Palm Beach County renamed East First Street to Barack Obama Boulevard.

A crowd cheered as a crew lowered the Old Dixie Highway street sign in Riviera Beach and raised one bearing the sitting president's name: President Barack Obama Highway.

"We are stepping up to a new day, a new era, and replacing Old Dixie with Barack Obama, who represents change," Riviera Beach Mayor Thomas Masters told Sun Sentinel news partner WPEC-Ch. 12.

Thank you, rivers.. this is interesting to me.. because I believe when Hillary wins the Nom she and President Obama are going to be out there campaigning together just like they were in 2008 when he was running.

As opponents they came together for the very much good of our country.. he chose her for his SOS and said it was one of his best decisions.. and they became friends.

There's no dividing Dems here. that's for those who support another candidate and want to diss President Obama at every opportunity.. with not one clue what they're talking about.

It was just so bizarre.. anyone paying attention know he cares about all America including "rural".

Where in the hell did that soundbite come from. I bet Hillary did cringe!

Things that if you really thought about it.. you wouldn't have to end up apologizing for. Thanks for tweeting her, underthematrix.

Yes the President wants one and he knows he's a going to get one.. he doesn't want his legacy torn to shreds.
