President Obama remarks at 2014 White House Correspondents' Dinner (C-SPAN)

[@teejay3272]

Orange is the new black. Nailed it. Think about how long the President has been in office and how many times we've all seen him speak. And now think about how many times he's stumbled in public or not represented the U.S. with nothing but dignity. It's pretty remarkable. Just look at when that slide didn't come up. He didn't blink. The smartest, most centered man in the room. I don't give two shakes about anyone's politics. But anyone who says this isn't one impressive man is full of shit.

Not only has Trump brought the GOP into the light and its demise; he heightens our appreciation of this lovely, articulate, brilliant man who graced the Washington stage with his beautiful wife for too brief a stretch. This is how the country arrives at a discriminatory choice. Europe has centuries on us, and they still get it wrong at times. We're still new at the game.

i disagree. lots of people in america have died cause of him. lots of americans that did'nt have insurance had to pay there tax return instead of paying bills now america is divided. rip all the law enforcement officer that died since blm started. and they think it's a joke.

[@ajaypasricha9855]

I think Obama could have been better, but everything you just said you pulled out of your ass. Unemployment is back to 4.9 %, though still some work to do. Our deficit has significantly decreased. There are millions more with health insurance (a Republican plan by the way, taken from Nixon, Dole, and Romney). We should give him some credit for not escalating the conflict in Syria more than he has (lord only knows what would have happened if it was a Republican in office). He did great on his Iran Nuclear Deal of course. A deal that wasn't even necessary because they aren't a threat to us, but he still made sure they can't have nukes for atleast another decade. He's been a fair President and very center-right

[@emmitthenry8226]

Did you forget that 9/11 happened during Bush's presidency? About the intel about impending attacks that was never acted upon

[@TheFloridaPappy]

9/11 was years in the planning and was executed less than nine months of Bush being in office. It was Clinton that didn't catch it.

[@thop1321]

This ass hole was a real comedian, in fact he missed his calling. To bad he sucked at politics. To bad for the American people that is. While it might make sense to conclude he WOULD have been for the community development act, the only actions I am aware of that he took while in office was to claim he was “present”. I believe he was too lazy - or maybe too canny - to actually vote on bills. Or maybe he was too bizzy community organizing. But I recall thinking it was striking how often he voted “present” rather than “yay” or “nay”.

[@KamilahHarris]

As for the people arguing in the comments about how much they hate Obama and Obama did horrible things, etc....I have to wonder how many people realize how little power a US president actually has. On the bright side, I guess it's good for congress to have a scapegoat so they can keep doing terrible things without as much ire...oh, wait, no...

[@VoiceOfTheVoiceless777]

IceMetalPunk Yes, hes in it to do their bidding, or he ends up like John F Kennedy for trying to expose the Illuminati Satanists inner workings. Obama is their puppet and we havent had a true president in AGES

[@IceMetalPunk]

Voice Of The Voiceless Um...I think you might be taking the conspiracy hypotheses a bit too far, but overall, yeah, he's bound by law to do what Congress agrees on for basically everything. That said...I'm not sure what you mean by a "true president". It's not just Obama who's bound to follow Congress, it's every president of the US ever--it's part of the original Constitution and US laws that hasn't changed much since Washington.

[@VoiceOfTheVoiceless777]

You are right, never was a TRUE president. Better term would be an "HONEST King/Dictator/Emperor/President"

[@IceMetalPunk]

Voice Of The Voiceless That's a symptom of the fact that the majority of people think democracy is the best system of government. Don't blame the leaders and politicians; they're just doing their jobs. Blame the populace who thinks "everyone should have an equal say in everything" will somehow encourage honesty and competence.
