Eisenhower Presidential Suite Dumped Renamed Barack Obama Suite
Shannon Dexheimer, public relations manager for The Brown Palace Hotel and Spa, recently explained that the reason for renaming the suite, was that the hotel, “wanted to do it to symbolize honoring him as the candidate for the Democrats, and honoring the fact that we played such a huge role 100 years ago when this convention (Democrat) was here last."

The hotel has four named suites, three presidential suites, the Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, and Teddy Roosevelt, and a suite named for the Beatles in honor of their one night stay in the hotel in August, 1966. There are also several unnamed suites on the eighth and ninth floors of the hotel.

Why take a chance at angering half the voting public, by making the switch? Only the management at the Brown Palace can answer that, but the smart thing would have been to
temporarily turn one of several other unnamed suites into the Obama Suite.

Really, really stupid, this guy isn't even an elected president yet his starry eyed followers just can't see him as just another candidate. And a candidate that, short of having a huge cult following, has no business even being in the running.

Wonder if the hotel will change the suite back if the little wonder doesn't make the final cut?

I think that's part of the 'presumed' nature of Obama. He assumes the world is his, already. To change the name of the suite from the Eisenhower Presidential Suite (who actually was a president) to the Barack Obama suite (who is not) is shallow.
