Absolutely awful selection. Obama is a disgrace to our American way of life.
Why is everybody always pandering to people like him. To disgrace the Thayer Award like picking this guy is a slap in the face to all of the previous winners.
By the way, who selects the winner? Get rid of that person. WP does not need him or her.

Sports are woven into the fabric of the school it represents. Army football and all sports should mirror the school. The Thayer Award is a prestigious West Point tradition and it is highly viewed associated with West Point. You choose a poor recipient winner of that award, it cast a shadow on the entire institution. It thus affects the entire fabric of the football team and all the other things in which the school is trying to portray.
In my opinion, Obama does not mirror the values that the academy should be showing.

Agree 100%. I can get political rants from more places than I care to. Don’t need it here.

As usually you're 100% on the mark again Rabble. Obama doesn't even deserve a participation trophy. Next year's winner will be Biden to complete the fruit loop.

Did the "Corpse" of Cadets have any say in the matter? A malaprop for the ages!

First they remove DUTY HONOR COUNTRY now this, the military is going woke and we are going to pay the price. Using the courts to influence elections calls for government takeover of utility company, reducing fossil fuels and thereby increasing cost, and now this. And the biggest hippocrit of all is my USMA grad Congressman in upstate NY check his background. RBM
