Question

Listen to the video...he says he visited 57 with one left to go, yet his staff would not let him go to Alaska or Hawaii. 57+1+2=60

Answer 1

....( of course it does not help)

hmmm, guess my history teacher forgot to teach us few..

Goes along with people not knowing that New Mexico is a state.

I hate when people ask where I am from, it takes 30 minutes to get some to comprehend.........God Help Us All

Answer 2

Well I personally believe that is because we US Americans are of the belief of children in Asia and we should help those children.

Answer 3

Yes, why don't you just keep beating this dead horse.  He meant 47.  The man was a law school professor so I don't know what bringing up this slip is doing for your side.  

Answer 4

You nailed it!  His followers did even know it was a mistake when he said that.

Answer 5

This is part of the Greek Economic Policies of The Obama One.

57 + 1 + 2 = 60  

The One is right!  Mathematics is wrong...

All Hail, the Great One cometh!  All Hail, our Dauphin Sir Obama.

Answer 6

Yeah!  And why didn't he ever talk about the major crisis going on right now in Czechoslovakia??? All foreign policy experts know about it.  Why doesn't Obama?  

Answer 7

What doesn't help is every moron not realizing in the first place that he is referring to U.S. territories. You don't even know how many "LOL there's FIFTY states!!!1! what n idiot!" I have read.
