Editor,

“There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. The anthem itself contains a warlike message … you know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing.” “In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our national anthem as well as redesign our flag to better offer our enemies hope and love.”

The aforementioned quote is from Barack Obama. The same Obama who recently campaigned for Ralph Northam presently running for governor of Virginia. Obama and Northam are political soul mates in every respect. No need to say anything more ……….
