I wish her well. That woman has seen a lot. I would never persuade my 97 year old grandmother (dies about ten years ago) that FDR wasn’t a hero. She thought I was taken in by those “tricky Republicans”.

I hope with the next president, Black History Month and Kwanzaa finally go into the dustbin of history.

Well, good on her. Obama is an idiot, and a POSoTUS, but for this lady, who has seen *real* change since she was a little girl, meeting the President, and a “black” president at that, would be a big deal.

When you’re 106, it doesn’t take much to get you excited and start dancing a jig.

Dancing with the Mr. and Mrs. Obama is on my bucket list. Except that I spell bucket with an “f”.

What I will say to Donald Trump when I meet him: “A white president. A white wife. And I’m here to celebrate American history. That’s what I’m here for.”

"A black president. A black wife. And I'm here to celebrate black history. That's what I'm here for."

106 years old and she's learned nothing except to see skin color. What a waste.

Can you imagine if someone said that? The double standard is amazing.

Her age and IQ matched about 25 years ago.

It seems only white people remember that MLK said he hoped for the day when people were judge by quality of character not skin color. That is sad because blacks in general would be helped by concentrating on quality of character. Those blacks who do are wonderful people, but shunned by their own.

I have a friend whose grammar is perfect until she is around other blacks then her demeanor and speech become unrecognizable. It is sad because she is a brilliant, loving person.

Just goes to show that wisdom doesn’t necessarily follow age.

That said, good for this woman to be not only alive at 106, but mobile enough to dance.

Well, she got to meet a Black President.
She will probably not live long enough to witness the destruction he is bringing.

The poor woman doesn’t even realize that she is a product of those that have stayed on the plantation.

She learned nothing from history.

This is first nice act of kindness I’ve seen from those two.

Remember when they had Beyonce sing “at last” at his inauguration. Etta James was devastated.
