President Barack Obama and State Secretary Hillary Clinton bow during the transfer of remains ceremony for the four Americans killed in an attack this week in Benghazi, Libya, at the Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, Sept. 14.
Secretary Clinton gave some personal information about each of the dead, saying Tyrone Woods had the “hands of a healer as well as the arms of a warrior.” He leaves behind a wife and three sons. Sean Smith was an expert in technology and leaves behind his wife and two young children. Glen Doherty was a former Navy Seal and paramedic who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Obama remarked, “I know that this awful loss and terrible images of recent days, the pictures we’re seeing again today have caused some to question this work. And there’s no doubt these are difficult days. In moments such as this, so much anger and violence, even the most hopeful among us must wonder. Amid all the images this week, I also think of the Libyans who took to the streets with homemade signs expressing their gratitude to an American who believed in what we could achieve together.” The sign said, Chris Stevens was a friend to all Libyans. He went on to say, “That America's a friend. And that we care not just about our own country, not just our own interests, but theirs.”

President Obama looks to me as though he's in a protective mode.
Understand, his MOTHER (his first love) and grandmother are Caucasian, His wife and DAUGHTERS (his greatest love) are African American. He is EQUALLY protective of both Caucasian women and African American women!!! He'll fight for them against everyone, every threat against them he takes SERIOUSLY!
Far too many people either don't understand that dynamic in President Obama, or are just too stupid to pay attention to the reality of President Obama's life.

Frank Marshall Davis Bio - Barrack Obama's REAL father
Frank Marshall Davis (1905-1987) was a Communist Party USA (CPUSA) propagandist in Chicago and Hawaii, as well as a writer and poet. The FBI had Davis under investigation or surveillance for 19 years, compiling a 600-page FBI file. He was on the FBI's 'Security Index A', meaning he would be arrested in the event of national emergency.
In 1930's Chicago, CPUSA recruited journalists to help spread Soviet influence in American public opinion. Frank Marshall Davis was one of them. A graduate of Kansas State Journalism School, Frank Marshall Davis joined the Communist Party and began writing for The Chicago Star. He was a colleague of journalist Vernon Jarrett, father-in-law of Obama confidant Valerie Jarrett. Davis also taught at Chicago's Abraham Lincoln School, a Communist run training school run by CPUSA. Davis authored three major volumes of poetry, and later an autobiographical sex novel under a pseudonym.
In 1948, the Kremlin ordered CPUSA to facilitate a US withdrawal from the Hawaii as US naval forces were considered an obstacle to Soviet expansion in Asia. CPUSA assigned Frank Marshall Davis to Honolulu where he began writing for the Communist Newspaper, theHonolulu Recordin 1948. In his columns, Davis flawlessly mirrored official Soviet propaganda - he blamed American capitalism for starting World War II, denounced the Marshall Plan, preached wealth redistribution, nationalization of industry and government healthcare, while bashing Wall Street. Davis also helped organize the Communist controlled ILWU (union) in a failed effort to take over the Hawaiian government in 1949. The Hawaii NAACP chapter complained to its national office, "Comrade Frank Marshall Davis suddenly appeared on the scene to propagandize the membership with the purpose of converting it into a front for the Stalinist line." In 1956, Davis was subpoenaed by the Senate Subcommittee on Un-American Activities and pleaded the fifth. Dreams from My Real Fathermakes the case that on August 4, 1961, Frank Marshall Davis became the father of the future 44th President of the United States and indoctrinated him with a Marxist ideology during his formative years.
