“Obama’s NLRB appears to be trying to put an end to the franchise model.”

It would be another way of suppressing small business and the American entrepreneurial spirit.

It is interesting McDonalds is a Chicago based corporation. It has been under attack by the Obama’s from the beginning of the administration beginning with Michelle making the company the poster child for child obesity. Perhaps McDonald’s didn’t contribute to the proper causes and candidates.

The renewed push seems to coincide with McDonalds firing its first black CEO, after a string of sales and earnings misses. The poor performance may not have been entirely his fault, the fast food industry has been under assault by the left throughout the Obama administration so the administrations’s war against fast food may have inadvertently taken the CEO as a casualty.

Ironically the wealthiest person in my neighborhood is black and owns several McDonalds franchises. He started as an hourly minimum wage worker in the store, worked his way up in the organization, bought his first franchise, and is living the American dream. This is the kind of story our President should be celebrating.

More accurately, Obama's NLRB is trying to put an end to jobs for people who desire to work but have limited skills and experience.

Joan Kroc was a major league liberal. I think it’s more an attempt to pay off the black community, which forms a major part of MCD’s work force. Obama’s a race man, first and foremost.

The GOP needs more outreach. This is a great story to tell and should be the lede on Fox.
