This past weekend, there was a poll circulating Facebook asking “Should President Obama should be killed?”

The participants were only given four options: yes, maybe, if he cuts my healthcare, or no.

The poll was taken down immediately before the U.S. Secret Service got wind of it.

The poll was not created by Facebook but by a third party using an add-on application. The creator has yet to be identified.

This type of behavior is very un-American.

No poll like this should ever be created about a human being, much less the leader of this country.

It is evident that many people do not agree with Obama, for whatever their personal reasons are, but this is crossing the line.

There should be a level of respect that we, as Americans, need to recognize.

Not to say that I love Obama and support him in everything he does, because I don’t, but I’m not going to disrespect him by creating something as awful as that poll.

It is very unnecessary. What was the point of the poll? What did the creator hope to accomplish by creating this poll?

This is not the only time Obama has been shown disrespect.

On Sept. 9, during a State of the Union Address, Obama was called a liar by Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina. Wilson issued an apology almost immediately.

I do not understand why there is so much animosity toward our president.

On Sept. 20, an article in New York Magazine titled “Who is Barack Obama?” examines people’s negative opinions of Obama.

What I read was simply sad. People said that he sounds like Hitler and even called him the Antichrist.

People need to stop being so narrow-minded and accept the fact that he is our president and he is not going anywhere anytime soon.

In the next election, Americans can elect a new president if they strongly oppose Obama.
