Antigua plans to do more than just rename its highest peak to honor President Barack Obama.
Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer says his government wants to create Mount Obama Monument and National Park with a new network of hiking trails. He also plans a museum with entertainment and educational facilities.
Spencer says Mount Obama will be a "beacon of hope for all people."
He outlined his plan to reporters Monday. He did not say how much it would cost or how the government of the dual-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda would pay for it.

Before Obama's first four years are up there will be a big move on to rename the entire earth after him.

Why don’t people wait and see if he accomplishes anything before setting up monuments and renaming things? This really is a cult of personality like Stalin or Mao.

We already have a Mount Obama. It’s called the national deficit.

Spencer says Mount Obama will be a "beacon of hope for all people." He must've misheard. Michelle Obama said they are "bacon people" when she was on the View, not "beacon".

Just ask Obama. I am sure he will help out... After all the rich in America have too much money already... He is willing to spread it around...
