The Obama Diary

BernieBros out here calling John Lewis a disgrace. John Lewis did more on any TUESDAY in the 60's than you will do in your entire ashy life.

John Lewis took to the streets ready to die for Black liberation. You're an asshole on Twitter.

There are plenty of reasons to disagree with John Lewis's endorsement of Clinton. But what you're not gonna do is impugn his legacy.

These are the same assholes, by the way, who wouldn't let the man speak at an OWS rally five years ago or whatever.

You can disagree with John Lewis' approach to supporting Hillary Rodham Clinton without being racist towards him. Thanks, management.

If you think about it, why would John Lewis have seen Bernie? Bernie was some student. He wasn't w/ MLK like that. And thats the point.

No matter who you are or who you're voting for, you should honestly think twice about your choices in life if you're attacking @repjohnlewis

Gotta say, attacking our sitting President AND a civil rights icon in the same day is one hell of a Democratic primary election strategy.

Young John Lewis wasn't checking Foursquare check-ins to see who actually came to the marches. He was busy not trying to get killed.

John Lewis is deserving of respect. Show the man some goddamn respect.
