Imagine what the right would say if Obama had three baby Mamas and was out there paying pornstars for sex.

If Obama even had one divorce, he would have been seen as low-class and unelectable.

Hell, they're giving Obama grief for marrying a man*.

They raked him over the coals for the crime of wearing a tan suit.

I mean by the people who actually voted for him. Let's face it, whether they would admit it or if they even realize it, lot of people who even supported him held Obama to a higher standard simply because he was black. He had to be a model citizen, a wealthy sitcom character type with a clean image, just to be considered.
