Puerto Rico Lawmaker Adviser Sends 'Racial' Anti-Obama Tweet

And it wasn't the first time

A Puerto Rico adviser faces calls to resign after sending out a seemingly racist tweet about Barack Obama. POTUS announced, on his own Twitter account, that wife Michelle Obama's birthday was coming up, to which Heidi Wys, the main adviser to House of Representatives President Jenniffer Gonzalez, replied: "Who cares? Take her to Burger King, buy her a sundae with double banana, take her to your homeland, Kenya!" Legislators are now asking that Wys step down - namely Sen. Juan Eugenio Hernandez who wants to maintain the island's slogan: "How is it that Puerto Rico `does it better' if the government pays an employee who is discriminating against the president of the United States?" This isn't the first time Wys, who is white, has sent an anti-Obama tweet. After receiving a general invite to dinner with the president, she tweeted: "Wah! Wah! I feel like vomiting! Dinner with a guy borned in Kenya and claims he was borned in Hawaii!" (Huffington Post)
