Imagine 100 years from now people will be to see how other presidents were from video and not just read about them in books.

I was truly shocked to hear that he was biracial, since everyone would always refer to him as the first black president. They should correct that and said he’s the first biracial president, personally I think that’s truly historical and honorable since the mixes of race, ethnicity, and culture is part of what makes United States great!

Für mich ist Barack Obama ein absolut glaubwürdiger Präsident gewesen. Im Moment lese ich gerade sein letztlich veröffentlichtes Buch, es sollten mehrere Leute lesen, um zu verstehen was Obama bewegte Präsident zu werden. Ich finde es bemerkenswert wie Michelle die Höhen und tiefen in seinem Leben mit getragen hat. Und letztlich immer zu Ihm gestanden hat.

How could the US go from such a great man with morals, humility and grace to the Donald? Staggering swing when you think about it. Don't believe Hilary and Donald were the best the US had to offer - but what do I know?

Obama is a type of guy who reads the whole terms and conditions and then presses "I disagree".
