Welcome to Tennessee “We’re Succeeding in Tennessee, Not Because of Your Liberal Policies, but in Spite of Them” President Obama visited Chattanooga, TN today where he visited an Amazon distribution center to announce his new jobs plan. If Obama was expecting an army of supporters- he was surely disappointed. Organizers for the protest originally intended to hold the rally in the parking lot of the distribution center. However, after plans for the protest made headlines the area was closed to the public. Only Obama supporters were allowed in. Not only did citizens act by taking to the streets, but the entire state took action. Chattanooga Times Free Press, a local news paper, ran a story welcoming Obama to the state. It reads: ”President Obama, Protesters Line Lee Hwy in Chattanooga, Tennessee as Obama Drives by. Welcome to Chattanooga, one of hundreds of cities throughout this great nation struggling to succeed in spite of your foolish policies that limit job creation, stifle economic growth and suffocate the entrepreneurial spirit. Forgive us if you are not greeted with the same level of Southern hospitality that our area usually bestows on its distinguished guests.”
