This evening, President Barack Obama is slated to speak at CU-Boulder’s Coors Events Center — a venue that won’t need airing out, since Wyclef Jean’s 4/20 concert was a poorly attended disaster.
How is Twitter Nation feeling about his visit? Divided, pretty much like America as a whole. Below, find our top ten tweets on the topic. Which ones strike home for you?
