Seems he’s put his life back together, and has hopefully made amends.

Who among us is without sin?

Must be Fake News. Racist Trump would never give this award to a black person.

“So did Michael Jordan and Jabbar via Obama....33 athletes altogether.”

I bet Jordan reminds Charles Barkley of it every time they are together.

Nobel Peace Prize, Kennedy Center Honors, Presidential Medal of Freedom, etc. — all these types of civilian awards have been thoroughly politicized, cheapened, and made meaningless.

I like Woods a lot better than I used to.

A little humility goes a long way.

Tiger went through a lot of prejudice as a. young man, but became the greatest champion in golf. Then he had embarrassing fall from grace when he lost his wife and kids, and didn’t win any m ore. THEN, he recently won the Masters, one of the biggest of golf tournaments. He was 40, which is old for a great golfer. He’s back on top, And proudly voted for Trump.

Great golfer, great American, great black person, whaddaya want?

(Golfers are usually Republicans)

For his comeback, after 11 years and about four back surgeries, and winning the Masters.

For his grit and determination and for being an inspiration.
The youngest ever to win and the second oldest to win.

He joins Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and another golfer I don’t know.

A pleasant feel-good story.

Tiger Woods never accepted the racial mantle the libs and blactivists tried to force on him. He steadfastly maintained his multi-ethnicity and always believed in America. His father Earl was a major in the United States army as well as a Green Beret. Tiger was named after Earl’s friend Col. Vuong Dong Phong who eventually died in a communist north Vietnamese prison camp after the war.

Tiger’s mom Kultida was Thai and Dutch. Tiger refused to disrespect his Thai heritage by calling himself black. He lost many in the “liberal black’ community and the white liberal media for this.His foundation contributes to military causes as well as science, technology, engineering and math education for youth.

How ironic that Obama is universally loved in those groups that reject Tiger, because Obama threw his white mother and grandmother under the bus and pretended to be a “black man”.

Tiger Woods, I belive, sees himself as a man, an American, and a person of multi-ethnic ancestry. I personally think he is courageous in supporting a President he has been personal friends with and refuses to abandon. I’m sure that President Donald Trump stuck with and supported Tiger during his tough times. I think that speaks well of Tiger’s loyalty and strength. Tiger’s support of Trump will cost him socially and materially.

I believe Tiger personally exemplifies the individual freedom that is the heart of our great American Republic. I think Tiger deserves that medal of freedom
