Quote by: Jimmy the Pro  Dude, maybe he just likes basketball? 
Race issues only go as far as we interpret them. The assumption that black people play basketball and must therefore choose it over other sports seems to be entirely your own imput. Obama never even implied it as such.
I think a basketball court would be good. He could invite the leaders of other countries over for some one on one dipolomacy.  |
He does love to play basketball. And in another town he was filmed shooting some hoops, but he did not make a lot of bad shots doing that so the news gave it little coverage.
Next on his trip he sat in a bar and drank a beer with the everyday factory workers. Hmm, hope he is not drinking beer when that phone call comes at 3 in the morning.
"hello, what's up?"
"Hello, this is Hillary, we are having a national emergency, they raised the cost of gasoline and our national economy is going to pot".
"Hey, don't toss that ball in my court baby, go wake up Congress, how did you get my phone number anyway?"
"I used to live there, how else do you think it got it, by the way hows your game?"
"Much better now that I installed my basketball court and got rid of that old bowling alley, drop by sometime and we will shoot a few hoops".
"Okay, next time I'm in the neighborhood I will give you a shout".
"Great, but try to call me at a decent hour next time".
