Former President Barack Obama will soon have his name permanently etched on a Los Angeles street.

After months of planning and debate, the city council voted 15-0 Tuesday to change the name of Rodeo Road to Obama Boulevard.

“We’re thrilled that Angelenos and visitors will forever be reminded of the legacy of President @BarackObama when traveling across L.A.,” Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti tweeted Tuesday night.

Mayor Eric Garcetti ✔ @MayorOfLA It’s official: our City Council has voted to rename Rodeo Road to Obama Boulevard! We’re thrilled that Angelenos and visitors will forever be reminded of the legacy of President @BarackObama when traveling across L.A. 10:52 PM - Aug 28, 2018 18.7K 5,640 people are talking about this

City Council President Herb Wesson proposed the name change last year.

At the time, he noted that Obama held a campaign rally on Rodeo Road, when he was running for president.

Biggest fraud in human history.
Barack Obama/Barry Soetoro is not a natural born citizen and was never eligible to be President.

><

He’s thoroughly phony.

15-0. Srsly? Does feckless seem appropriate. Probably not since we’re talkin LA so this is most likely standard ops/sukfest.

Who would dare vote “no”? LA is Leftist Lalalaland and they know they would never be elected to another office if they denied the Prince his name on a street.

A one-way street, where the only entrance is from a back alley.

If 0bama Blvd intersects Martin Luther King Street., then that neighborhood will most certainly be dangerous.

Is that racist or accurate?

More appropriate for a street in San Francisco, the Liberal Sanctuary City of Feces, ya think?

0bama translates to 💩, so same diff 😂

They can just call it “O Poo Ave”, for short.

A mosque at one end of the street and a pot dispensary at the other end?

It would be both culturally and politically correct in Caliph-phony-a.
