There was a little sarcasm in my statement. But, really, can you imagine what would have happened if Trump had said that? I honestly think that would have knocked the world off its axis.

Haha, hey, Kenya is where his father is from, he has roots there, so it's not racist to suggest Kenya as a retirement destination. It's actually a little racist to say that sending Obama to Kenya is racist....what's wrong with Kenya?

I do think that applies across the board, however, the remark about Kenya is another birther dig at the former president. I wouldn't consider it racist in and of itself, just more kindergarten sandbox politics of the type our current president is so full of.
