I don't think anyone can definitively say there was nothing racial about it. And even if that was not his intent, he should have chosen his words carefully given how the watermelon issue has been played out in this country.

Either way, I don't even care. We know that there are some people who don't like having a Black president. They have been disrespecting the presidency in this way since Obama came into office.
