The City of Los Angeles has renamed a nearly 4-mile stretch of road from"Rodeo Road" to"Obama Boulevard," in honor of the country's first African-American president.
"For every child who will drive down this street and see the name of the first Black President of our country, this boulevard will serve as a physical reminder that no goal is out of reach and that no dream is too big," tweeted City Council President Herb Wesson after the renaming Saturday.Rodeo Road, which runs through a historic black neighborhood, is not be the first strip to be named in honor of former presidents.
I just named my Toliet Paper “Obama Pride Paper”...Wiping never felt so good! At night it is lit up in rainbow colors
Trump is green with envy. He’ll probably make an EO that he gets a street named after him. I’d suggest a dead end street that leads to a toxic dump site.
MonicaVoss4 Every road in front of, in back of, and beside a Trump place of business needs to be changed to Barack Obama Blvd, Barack Obama Ave, Obama Lane, Obama Street. Make that sorry sack of crap have to change his mailing address.
nor body care! Obama remains a sellout in the eyes of Africans.
Awesome!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ex president Obama.
wingheart Give it a few months and they'll be renaming it Treason Terrace
Nice and deserved honor for a man who did so much for America and the entire world, whose legacies both intrinsic and physical will endure for ever.
Who cares?
Guessing that gets rescinded in the coming months.
NormanRumack BarackObama WhiteHouse
Remember the famous redline !!!!
Never going to California so i don’t give a shit
Also known as “The road to nowhere.“
Old news.
Poetic being that majority of homeless in California are Black americans
Nice, a road to nowhere
...WellDone ! Legends need Myths to survive...But, one day, History met YesWeCan : Factual Democracy...
Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊 to President Barack Obama!! President Barack Obama was the greatest President we have ever had, and Vice President Joe Biden is the best V.P. We have ever had!! I wish they were back!!!😃😁👍🏼
Well, it will be another road from nowhere to nowhere just like his corrupt 💩hole presidency!
And he wasn’t even a citizen of the United States. Good job, morons! 👏👏👏👏👏
History of original names should remain. Could just add Obama Rodeo Road instead of changing the root of it. Do that and you denounce originality, and is now fake.
Not African American.......African.
Nice, how much did it cost?
LisaKeel9 When Trump leave office how about the road to the Waste land fill “Trump’s Dump”?
CNN everyone took one.
Luv it!!!!
Wtf you reported this ten times a month ago why are you reporting this again today
wow that's REALLY gonna piss trump off!!!!
cnn does another story about race
Appropriate only if the road dead ends and you get robbed along the way.
That’s wonderful!
Fabulous decision!
I think it is awesome!
It’ll fall apart just like Obummer’s Presidency did! 🤣🤣🤣
He deserve it.
Awesome
Trump should get a waste treatment plant named after him! 💩”Welcome Donnie.”
Makes me sick
Was there a doubt?
I’ll be even happier when a town honors President Trump by renaming something Piece of Shit Boulevard.
Whyd they change the interesting streets name. Rodeo road thats got a good ring
realDonaldTrump
Bi-racial President Obama’s mother was white and he was raised by his white grandmother
I live 1 block from Obama Blvd and signed the petition to have it changed. I went to that rally in 2007 and knew then he was special. My son goes to a school on Obama Blvd and he is proud to tell people where his school is located. Seeing the street signs everyday is awesome.
Sad.
Wrong!!!
Dirty war is a great movie about accomplishment of B.O
realDonaldTrump ha ha ha ha ha ha
You didn’t build that
And Russia named a highway after Trump.They call it the highway of idiots !!
Good spot for the unemployed lazy government living ppl to live. Just like Obama’s trash legacy 😂
Que Twitter tantrum 😂😂😂😂
HA!! It's in LA... soon it will be covered in used needles and human feces. Spot on... a perfect name for such a street.
Nice Respectful Gesture!....He was the First 1/2 African American President!When your the First White President you get a whole city named after you!...The First Criminal/Russian Asset President(Trump),we should name NYC sewer System the Trump Sewer System!
Because he is African-American? Yeah that makes sense. That was the only thing he accomplished in office. New skin color amongst all Presidents.
Now it will be known as B.O.B.
To all illegals this is the place you want to go you now have an address and a place to stay. It’s sanctuary heaven. Obama Boulevard
They could name an alley in honor of Orange Face.
Well no surprise there 😂 named after the worst UN AMERICAN President EVER
Great! We'll done folks!!!
We need to rename a concentration prison camp then.
Very impressive! I think this is awesome!!
Honor to whom deserve it REAL PRESIDENT ❤️❤️❤️
Celebrates mediocrity
Are the homeless, drug needles, and human waste allowed in that 'boulevard'?
Oh boy...now Trump is going to be looking for a stretch of highway. If Obama did it, Trump has to beat it. 😜😜😜 Like the newly falsified nomination for a Nobel Peace Prize.
I think it is innapropiate name any city place with the name of a live person
Whatever OBAMA was a shitty spineless treasonous coward of a president but a president non-the-less.. he's gonna have to be remembered some how after President Trump erases his garbage legacy that's almost gone ..
Funny they did not pick a street in Watts to rename, but the most expensive area in LA.
Trumps gonna bitch about this in a bit 😂 calling it
They’re really going to regret that after he gets indicted 😂
Yay! And in other news, Los Angeles also renamed their waste disposal and sewage treatment facilities in honor of Donald Trump. One person was heard to say, “That Donald, he the shit!” A fitting tribute to our fearless leader. 🤣
Can we name a sewer line after our current President? realDonaldTrump ImpeachmentNOW
Isnt this very old news? Seems like I've read this months ago.
Now we have a road to remind us all of his economic policies that drove our economy off the road and into the ditch
So the street was renamed based on a lie? African Americans across America are in rage over calling the mulatto an African. But again his whole Presidency was a scam. Bring black employment down to it lowest ever, but put more on welfare and food stamps than any others.
Must not be much going on if you have to dig up 2 week old news
Quit sending same damn stories
Well deserved. And this will never happen to tRump. He will just have to keep on putting his name on things himself.
I bet that has realDonaldTrump green with envy. No roads named after him (except for maybe on one of his private clubs) and never will be.
Fair tribute
Old News ! CNN is just reporting this now ? Slowwwwww Fake News Network
Wow... SLOW day in the ivory tower hey? Almost all the articles posted today are recycled ones. Guess the Dems haven’t given out their talking points yet. 🙄
Awesomeness! He was and is still the best
Except he’s not either
Thank you, bless you.
I wonder if that is where are the homeless and drug addicts live...
Next step is rename freeway 10 as 'Hillary Clinton memorial freeway '
These people are so delusional, it’s just heartbreaking.
TriggedTrumpets brought millions of hits to this story. Not a bad idea, more hits more money
In 2025 or 2030 one boulevard will called Andrés Manuel Lopez Obrador ,the best Mexican President in the last times
I can just see all the racist acting possessed at the news.
If not already, how long before it is lined with homeless?
And here I thought it dumb when they renamed Washington national airport after Reagan. Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
TracyKatz8 realDonaldTrump Look how we honor a real president You'll be lucky to get a out house named after you
There must be a public toilet somewhere in NYC that they can rename after Trump
Breaking news , or did you just comprehend it after reading about it somewhere else?
O Captain, my Captain...
The Republicans are gonna name a road after Trump in Alabama. They will call it Putin Ln. No driving on this road. Just putin around.
Great
But make sure you rename anything associated with the confederate army and civil war.. name it after the biggest divider of this country,,
This should get under the orange 🍊 clown’s 🤡 skin
Will they keep the name if Obama has to go to prison for illegal spying?
He’s half white 🤣

First Kenyan born President. FuckObama
And anyone who drives on it immediately gets lost
Only in Snowflake land, Hollywood elites love Obozo
My favorite and the best president 💕
What a shitty road name.
Anyone else see this and here Old Town Road in their heads? OldTownRoadRemix oldtownroad movingonup makePOTUSgreatagain cheetomanhasgottogo
I think Barack Obama boulevard starts at the intersection of corruption and legacy of lies boulevard! Obama administration will go down as most corrupt in history! MAGA
'First Non-American President'
That was a week ago. What else you got?
If a stretch is named for realDonaldTrump, it could be Liar’s Lane, Bloviating Boulevard, Draft Dodger Drive, Russian Road, Obstruction Overpass, Collusion Court, Twitterage Trail, Swamp Street, Whiny Way, Pathetic Path, Grifter’s Gateway, Amoral Avenue or Hypocrisy Highway.
Bravo!!!!
Once Obama is convicted of Treason. It will be re-named to Criminal Alley. What he did along with his administration and Hillary and top FBI and DOJ to this country is unconscionable. Not to mention the millions of dollars that have been wasted on felonious accusations. Sickening
It was three miles. Now it’s nearly four. Just observing how is constantly altering “the news”!
He is just as much white as he is black, but facts don't matter with CNN.
And best President in 80 years.
Wow what an honour for a great guy
BLEXIT
Has Donald Trump heard this?🤔🤔
I can't wait to see how this ages. traitor treason gitmo or the gallows
So much for the dirtiest city in the Nation. Imagine if he would have been a great president...they would have named the State after him!
Is that on Ro-DAY-o drive or RO-dee-o drive m? Just curious!!
I wonder if Obama's skin was white but with the same parents, would he still be considered 'African American'?
This road is known for holding the most amount of side-walk human feces.
CNN rehashing the only real news they’ve published in a month. Purveyors of Fakenews
Must be a road with out jobs and high tax.
Notorious for slow moving traffic, gridlock and this boulevard leads right over a cliff!
Perfect road...it was a rodeo!
Trump already has two of his very own streets that have bought and paid for him - Wall Street and K Street.
The road never traveled
The 10th time I have seen this...is there a point? The radical left destroyed a once prosperous state, currently like what Obama stood for...sad part is his actions was not anywhere near what anyone thought it would be...look what happened yet you still want a sign, I’m confused!
It would
That’s how racist California is.
There goes the neighborhood
Will LA relocate the homeless to Obama street? It would be appropriate
Love it. Well done!👏🏻👏🏻
Affirmative action folks
There goes the neighborhood! Soon to be skid row!
Awesome did they name the sewage treatment plant after Trump , they should
Aka Triggered Trumpies Drive
This is a joke , president that got us in to a financial and security trouble , unbelievable .
People get their own statues but black president get a fucking highway 😂
That is ok for now, as soon as we put him in jail we well remove it. The man does not deserve any thing. Worst President ever.
CNN=Clinton's News Network🤬
Trump won't get a road, he'll get a prison cell.
So woke
Could we not name a new road after him?
Great revelation
nice move LA 😍
Love that guyy👏 totally deserved
When Donald leaves office or now actually, instead of calling bathrooms the JOHNS, call them the DONALDS. That'd be pretty poetic. Calling the crappers DONALDS.😂😂😂
African-American? Did I miss something? Is CNN admitting he was born in Kenya now?
If you like your lane, you can stay in your lane.
3
It’s a dead end
When he gets indicted will they change street name?
How many times will cnn run this non news story This may be the 15th time
that obama person gave support & weapons to SaudiArabia to start their killing venture in yemen. that obama person passed ACA, which increased healthcare & insurance costs & provided less healthcare freedom. Big govt lover, anti constitution.
Is that street filled with the homeless and drug addicts? Because that’s what Obama created.
Is this a new gay destination?
I thought he was the first gay President. Joan rivers thought so
The road to nowhere
In this case, he literally was the first African American, born in Kenya, to be President. Crazy to think he's also 'white'- that never gets mentioned for some reason...
Because these are deeply racist, communist domestic enemies, does not want you to know about this:
Lol now we know the deranged mentality of those living by this street! No thanks
Actress Regina Daniels fit no end up with her Billionaire husband, Ned Nwoko, read what happened.
It’ll be known as the worst stretch of road in history
BOB
A dead end road I am sure...
We’re way ahead of L.A. We’ve renamed all the toilets in the office Obama Conduits, since they're used to transport all Obama's great achievements and legacy to the Obama Library under our front lawn. 💩🙄
Two weeks ago, when this story came out (way to keep on top of things ), I said it is unwise to name streets, buildings, parks, and other public structures after people who are still alive. Obama’s legacy is not shaping up to be so noble
Boulevard of broken dreams...and promises.
🎵drivin’ down obama in my maserati sports car🎵
Good move
Great
About time we honor our first black President!
When will people figure out that BHO = GWB - ACA.
CNN cried tears of love.
Failed Obama Boulevard
When you travel down this road you get spied on.
Disgrace
I hope they used 'peel and stick' letters because Hillary's email drama is getting ready to land in his lap.
Maybe the road will bail out all the banks again when it should've let the industry die.
Hershey Highway would have been more apropos, oui?
Question: After Donald Trump leaves office what will be renamed in his honor?
This article is two weeks old
Great gesture
The current FLOTUS finding out about the new Barack Obama Boulevard.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Obama Boulevard:
Wouldn't it be funny if Obama Boulevard is in the shitty part of town like EVERY Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard is?
And AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell” has been remanded as the Donald J. Trump expressway.
Make LA great again
Obama is Always watching 🧐
Great immotalty what a way to put him into recognition for life. Well deserved
🙄
Worst president ever
