Wealth of politicians who have been Pres. goes all the way back to George Washington.
This is not counting the losers who ran such as Mitt Romney and McCain who did not even know how many houses he had (it was 8).
Can't imagine being so rich that I don't even know how many houses I have.
Obama was not as poor as he claimed to be either. His Mom travelled quite a bit all over the world when he was young.
Takes money to do that.
Politics - Oceansoul - 14-09-2016
Hrm, I thought President Obama's Mother was a single one and his Father moved around a lot. I tried googling his parents and got stuff like Infowars unfortunately so I can't find much reliable information about them. Doesn't Donald Trump come from a rich family? I think his Father is pretty well off. Not all candidates come from money though, but a lot seem to.
Politics - Lovely Linda - 14-09-2016
I studied the history of Obama from start to finish before he was elected and he did not live a poor life.
His Mom was Jewish and his Dad Islamic. His Mom did travel to areas such as Pakistan, Indonesia, back to Hawaii, and other places in the US.
His Dad also travelled alot.

Back to your question re Trump, Linda...
His father was a self made real estate tycoon,
Started with nothing...

Has anyone heard about the incident in Columbus, Ohio today? A 13 year old African American kid was shot by police officers. He had a pellet gun and they mistook it for a real one. He didn't do anything to warrant being killed, also he was a kid! Who is training these police officers to de-escalate a situation by shooting someone to death on the spot? My Grandmother was a police officer in the 80s and never had to use a gun unless it was absolutely necessary, she could stop someone running away from her without a weapon. What the heck? Please enlighten me someone.
So let me get this straight, I now have to worry about my Nephew's even more now because they might be shot by racist police officers for playing with one of their Nerf guns. Thank God my Sister doesn't live in Ohio. I shouldn't have to worry about police officers, who are suppose protect citizens, shooting some of my family members because they're black.

the kid pulled a gun on a police officer
he probably didn't have time to examine the gun to see what kind it was

Um yeah, they just assumed it was real because reasons and shot him. Didn't even give him a chance to be innocent, they just assumed he might shoot them because????
Politics - CRAZY-HORSE - 16-09-2016
Yeh,
But the time spent by a cop analysing whether a weapon is real or fake is longer than the time it takes for that officer to be shot,
Surely you guys know that if you draw anything on a US cop that chances are you'll get shot
