Should Obama Rename The White House? by Thadude(m): 8:54pm On Jan 29, 2009 |
I have been having this heated discussion with my white female friends at work. I have always thot it was wrong for the founding fathers of America to have named the Presidential mansion "The white house" taking into consideration that america is a country of all races and all nations on earth. Most especially knowing that the white house itself was built by slaves. My question is should Obama change the white house to black house??, Although during a visit by neighbors (ordinary everyday people), Obama taged it as the "Peoples House". what do u guys think? |

HeatFusion: Lmao! I mean seriously!! The reason they call it white house is because it is LITERALLY the WHITE HOUSE!!! They will soon say he should not wear white socks or use white notebook. |

The level of ignorance on Nairaland is approaching catastrophic proportions. Some of you people are just IG'NANT. Who were you having this intelligent conversation with, Daisy and Anna Rae, the receptionists from Woodlawn Trailer Park? |

when Obama is not re-elected for second term, know that you contributed to it. What a silly conversation to be having at your place of work, people get insensitive and when others react to it you start making noise about racism. You think Obama got to where he is by talking carelessly? |

You can as well paint the walls black. *Seriously rolling my eyes* |

The name White House is okay, but they should add some color to all that white! Some shades of brown, yellow, blue, green and red will be nice. |
Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by Nobody: 2:06am On Jan 30, 2009 |
That would be the fastest way to ensure he wont get a second term and no black man will ever win the presidency again. Its called the white house because the walls are painted white not because of white folks. How many presidential villas in Africa are called the black house? |

RichyBlacK: it's a presidential building and not Alhaji's faceme-I-faceyou |

White is a boring color! And why can't it be repainted to brown? |
Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by SeanT21(f): 3:31am On Jan 30, 2009 |
White has nothing to do with the color of the president.It is call the White House because the house is actually WHITE!! |
Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by KarmaMod(f): 3:35am On Jan 30, 2009 |
Brown ko. Green ni |

Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by aieromon(m): 9:31am On Jan 30, 2009 |
@poster the white house should be renamed, if it was housing a Nigerian President. its named after the colour of the building,no more,no less. you and your white female friends should seriously do more working than aimless talking. i am so disappointed for replying this post |
Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by sashbaby(f): 10:54am On Jan 30, 2009 |

Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by Bastage: 11:32am On Jan 30, 2009 |
the white house should be renamed, if it was housing a Nigerian President. Not only would it be renamed but it would also be rebuilt. First on the list would be a massive garage area to house Rolls Royces, Ferraris, Porsches, etc. Next would be an extra 30 bedrooms so the girlfriends could stay overnight. Then there would be the biggest room in the house. The one used to store all of the money stolen through corruption. |

SeanT21: I totally agree. but come to think of it, Black House would be just fine instead of the [b]white [/b]thingy |
Re: Should Obama Rename The White House? by aieromon(m): 4:03pm On Jan 30, 2009 |
Bastage: guy,u forgot to describe the type of gates and doors that will be installed and how many neighbouring buildings will be destroyed to ensure utmost privacy of Naija's number 1 master slave. |
