According to reports on Twitter and from several individuals who called into the Rush Limbaugh Show on Monday, President Obama was enthusiastically booed when he appeared in a public service announcement shown on the scoreboard video screen at Michigan State University during Saturday’s football game against Nebraska.
The “It’s On Us” PSA, which features a parade of celebrities in addition to the president and Vice President Biden, was designed “to fundamentally shift the way we think about sexual assault, by inspiring everyone to see it as their responsibility to do something, big or small, to prevent it,” according to a White House press release. The campaign was launched in partnership with the Center for American Progress’ Generation Progress and students from nearly 200 colleges and universities across the country. The NCAA has agreed to assist the White House through ”resources on NCAA.org; coverage of the campaign in its award-winning quarterly magazine, Champion; activities during the National Week of Action in November; and a half-day session on sexual assault and violence prevention at the Association’s annual convention in January.” The NCAA also agreed to show the PSAs at NCAA championship events and on social media.
The student section started the booing when President Obama’s face appeared on the screen at the end of the video. They were joined by others in the stadium.
Never been more proud to be a Spartan when the Student Section boo'd Obama.

See the video Michigan State fans booed on the next page:
Nice to get some good news!
I’m not bleeding. I use an electric razor.
Six years too late? None of the folks in the student section were old enough to vote six years ago. You can’t blame them for Obama’s election.
Even among white kids?
Yah....how many black kids do you think are in college? Even with the quota system?
Look at the rate of black high school graduation and you’ll know.
I’ve done a bit of research via Google over this last hour and it seems college kids went for Obama at about the same rate as young people in general. That means a majority of the white college kids who voted probably did not vote for Obama. And when you factor in all the commies at Wellesley, Haverford, Swarthmore, et al where Obama probably won by 90 percent or more, it stands to reason that Obama did not win the vote of the (presumably mostly white) kids in the Michigan State stands.
