Has Obama been disrespected more than usual for a president?

I'm still young (20) and didn't really develop my passionate interest for politics until 18, so I don't remember much of Bush but when I watch how the media treats Obama they can be downright disrespectful to the commander in chief. I realize we have the right to speak ill of him btw.

Why did CNN give Obama an 8 year pass in investigative journalism, but is now actively persecuting Donald trump?

Obama has demonstrated himself to be a very careful person regarding his own image and actions, to a fault. He is strong organizer and team builder. His skills are much more that of a GM or COO* than, say, a CEO or head of Sales, when you draw parallels with the corporate world. As Terry Irving responded ( Why did CNN give Obama an 8 year pass in investigative journalism, but is now actively persecuting Donald trump? ), CNN, and I understand, all major news agencies, had units designated to dig into his past and present. None found anything “scandalous”. Before Obama made a name for himself on the national stage at the 2004 Democratic Convention, he barely got any media coverage. DJT, on the other hand, was a media magnet since the late 80s due to his long running and well known “foot-in-mouth” disease. He’s outrageous, thin-skinned and picks very public fights over nothing. Follow DJT around, and he will say something “scandalous” sooner than later. The mainstream media actual...

How likely would a black person be chosen as the Prime Minister of the UK, assuming the UK Prime Minister would be the equivalent of the US President?

The PM is not the equivalent of the President. The PM is simply the leader of whatever political party happens to hold the most seats in Parliament, so the question is actually, how likely is it that a major political party would choose a black leader? There is absolutely nothing against it on race grounds. If anything, being black might slightly improve a person’s chances of being picked for leader, as the party might feel that being shown to be inclusive would improve their share of the young person’s votes. However, the black community is both small and disproportionately made up of people whose families only moved to the UK in the mid 20th C. The top ranks of the political parties are still afaik disproportionately made up of people who went to public school. [In British terms, a public school is a very old and grand fee-paying school, called “public” because some of them are so old that “public” meant “not just training students for the priesthood”.] At present, there are ...
