MOSBY UPSTAGES OBAMA AND ALL THE REST
Easily, for the next six months, if not longer, nothing that the rhetorically-gifted President, Barack Obama may say, can eclipse what Mrs. Marilyn "Maat" Mosby has already done in Baltimore, Maryland, where she charged 6 police officers with the custodial "murder" of lowly Freddie Gray in April, 2015.
She has stolen the President's thunder, along with the national and international spotlights, by courageously doing her duty as Chief Prosecutor for the City of Baltimore . The upcoming trials may well tug tenaciously on the 2016 Presidential campaigns and Presidential aspirations of all contenders of both political parties, as well as prosecutors federal or state in the country!
That said, the President will have to DO SOMETHING that is equally breathtaking to regain his prior prominence, like sending some money to urban areas, where America's own black male aliens reside! Funds have been steered away from such denizens due to demonic political forces that sought to placate "white silent majority" distemper after 1968's riots!
