Just check out the comments on any news story about the President on Yahoo, and all you read in the comments is vile and racist hatred. The reason it continues is obvious, the lack of any Right Wing "leader" speaking out against this rhetoric, instead they condone this continued attack and the dumbing down of the population.
The right wing media is also complicit in fanning the flames of hatred and racism, and it never pays any consequence for this.
