"For Political Reasons"

The President's uncle -- remember how he'd liberated Auschwitz? -- has a few words on his nephew:

SPIEGEL: Mr. Payne, early in June your great-nephew, President Barack Obama, will visit the former concentration camp Buchenwald, which you helped liberate at the end of the war. Will he be travelling in your footsteps?

Charles Payne: I don't buy that. I was quite surprised when the whole thing came up and Barack talked about my war experiences in Nazi Germany. We had never talked about that before. This is a trip that he chose, not because of me I'm sure, but for political reasons.
He says some nicer things later in the interview, but that was a pretty cruel cut.

Speaking of which, Cassandra has another contest.
