The Forgotten Man

Painting Shows Obama Trampling Constitution

A new painting of President Barack Obama by a Utah artist is stirring things up politically.

The piece, which includes every U.S. president, is titled “The Forgotten Man” and shows Obama stepping on the U.S. Constitution.

“I feel like our presidents have really forgotten who put them there,” artist Jon McNaughton said.

The painting shows conservative presidents on one side and liberals on the other. It also features dollar bills blowing around and depicts the American flag at half-mast.

“The flag being at half-mast usually happens when there is a tragedy in the country,” McNaughton said. “I have painted the flag at half-mast because I feel that right now our country is experiencing a tragedy at monumental proportions.”

The artist said he showed Obama trampling on the Constitution because “he has done things that I believe are unconstitutional since he has been in office.”
