Don't lose hope. That was only an example of how people are being treated differently when they should not be. If I had it my no one would receive any perks.

Yeah, I don't see why everyone can't have coffee if they want it. Of all shades. I like mine with no sugar but a lot of milk. I guess Obama would be sort of like a latte.
