You vastly overestimate the importance of offhand remarks by the President.
You are delusional if you think we are the only ones who will remember. Law enforcement communities will remember, trust me. And they are, by and large, already conservative. Obama was being blatently disrespectful, and perhaps even slanderous, do this particular police officer. It's already been pointed out - this Sergeant is an instructor in race relations.
