Dear Former President Barack Obama and Former First Lady Michelle Obama,
Iโve watched you and your children attacked with a ferocity and cruelty that defy any sense of decency and that certainly have no precedent.
Iโve watched your birthplace called into question, your personal faith ridiculed, your patriotism mocked, your gender contested, and your very humanity discounted.
Iโve watched you endure the incessant, bitter venom of those for whom the color of your skin was always going to be a problem.
And through all of it, Iโve watched you be the better humans, always going high despite their sickening depths.
In the face of a sustained, spitting, violent, raw-throated hatred, youโve never responded in kind.
You never allowed yourselves to be defined by the bigotry of your critics, and you never dehumanized them or let them win by becoming them.
@greggkrupa Thanks! As a RWF, all I remember is the blatant, unsportsmanlike, dirty attack he put on Draper. You give me a look from another perspective.
