The Obama administration is praising protesters who successfully forced University of Missouri President Tim Wolfe to announce his resignation.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest praised the group of protesters for rallying together and demanding change, pointing out that Obama’s first presidential campaign was embodied by the same spirit.
“I think this also illustrates something that the president talked a lot about in the context of – in his campaign, that a few people speaking up and speaking out can have a profound impact on the communities where we live and work,” he said during the daily press briefing today.
The group of students accused Wolfe of enabling “a culture of racism” on campus and ignoring student concerns about recent events. Wolfe resigned after members of the college football team joined the protests, saying they wouldn’t suit up for the next game.
“That’s the kind of dialogue and work and unity that the Mizzou community is going to need to make progress on this issue,” Earnest said, in reaction to the decision calling it “a testament to the courage of the people on campus.”

Sorry, I need to ask just how many parents of these protesting students actually paid their OWN kid's tuition?
Please post instructions regarding obtaining monetary damage payments so that our family may apply. Christmas is just around the corner you know.
And it turned out to be a hoax... I hope they sue Jonathan Butler !
News flash the head idiot of this marxist movement ...his family is worth $20million
This is exactly why we have such a race problem in this country.. rather than trying to soothe the situation and facilitate discussion and healing, the 'White House' fans the flames and encourages them to continue.
It has to be intentional. No one is that stupid.
Knee jerk liberals and flat out lies by Black Lives Matter are fueling a fire that once it has started many will suffer. Sad times ahead if we do not get a grip on this bs. That kid at Missou is fake I called him out early. Nothing but liar but the damage is done.
The sad fact is so many were so quick to buy his bs. Libtards
Spoiled brats from the gimmee,gimmee generation. These petulant children need to suck it up, like the rest of us! Who do they think they are? Know it alls.
Agitator in Chief deserves a single finger salute
