President Obama coming to Jamaica!

[Rob]

Yes this type of discussion seems to have no place on this web site. We do not come here for president likes or dislikes. Who cares who you like, dislike, respect or disrespect. It is a discussion of politics and like religion and abortion, the end result of related discussion, generally is division of people and people showing deep beliefs that would be better left to themselves.

Really? Enough already, can we just stick to the topic of a US sitting US President visiting Jamaica and stop with all the bickering. Regardless of who it is, it is a big deal of a sitting President to visit. The only 2 I know of were FDR and he was there to scout strategic military sites and Reagan who met with Seaga over his "war on drugs" plan.

I wonder if we could convince Jamaica to keep him??

Hahaha! Maybe he will get stuck there when customs see's his fake birth certificate, oh darn he will be on a private fight so no such luck

If this type of discussion bothers someone, why would you click on it and read it?? Lol. I don't like MSNBC, so I don't watch it. Simple.

Maybe someone would click on the topic "President Obama coming to Jamaica!" to find out the facts about his visit. The fact that you don't like MSNBC or have a dislike for President Obama is immaterial to the topic. Not too surprising a position taken from Oxford, Alabama, is it?

Simple? yeah, I think "simple" about covers that.

An even simpler thing to do is to not to make such obviously heated and rude comments in a very important thread announcing that a sitting President, who happens to be the first African-American President is visiting the small island nation of Jamaica that has gained independence a little over 50 years ago whose population is made up of a majority of African decent.

That is why we do limit discussions about politics and religion, but this news of the two term President Obama visiting Jamaica is very important to the Jamaican people. To make light of it, make jokes about something that is so important to the Jamaican people does show a lack of compassion to what the Jamaican people value.

In the future, this visit to Kingston will be talked about similar to when the Queen visited or Haile Selassie came here, this is a big deal for Jamaica.

I am disturbed but not surprised by the comments made by some here. It just saddens me that some can not or choose not to see the big picture and have some bizarre need to express heated, rude comments.
