Notice that Pres Obama takes great care not to take direct credit for most of the interview. He credits the Navy Seals, he credits the Intel community, he credits his team. Pres Obama was and is a class act!
He's a killer who supported the invasion of Iraq which killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians.
Yet if it went wrong he was going to take full responsibility. That too me is the difference in Mr Obama and other leaders.
What’s Pres Obama?
A true leader, unlike his successor.
It's a matter of opinion. I think that President Trump is a true leader as well.@@blownspeakersss
I didn't vote for President Obama but this is a job well done. It's nice to hear a coherent and professional President in times like these
Why didn’t he show the body?
@@sagesarabia5053are you are drugs? Why didn’t Barack Obama show the body? What kinda question is that?
@@sagesarabia5053Because the image of Bin Laden’s body all over the internet would provoke terror attacks all over the globe. It was absolutely the smart decision not to release the photos.
@@sagesarabia5053Obama himself answers your question in this video at 20:37

This is still one of the best interviews I have watched. Obama is calm, measured and yet so articulate and intellectual.
خلي يولي تبرأ من موطنه الأفريقي ولم يقضي فيه على المجاعة.
Presidents should feel like someone that is intelligent and mentally strong on either side of the board something we have been lacking since 2016
You must have not graduated from elementary if you think this is what an intellectual sounds like.
I like to say Obama will go down in history with Biden as the trash in the White
All liars and con men are calm and articulate.
Strange that Obama didn't end the interview thanking his Muslims allies and brothers.
This is what a real leader sounds like. Those who try to lead through fear and intimidation do so from a position of weakness.
😂😂😂😂😂 foh
What about leaders who are senile and hardly know who or where they are?
Leader?!?!?😂🤣😂🤣 his husband, Michael is the one who wears the pants in that marriage 😅😂😂
He just knows what to say and how to say it. You have to learn to actually know what he’s really saying instead of what it sounds like. He’s also said some whoppers that the media likes to cover up for him.
@@lindseysanders3656 hasnt every president
I used to be very critical of Obama during his presidency but gosh damnit I would give anything to have him back in the Whitehouse compared with what options we have now.
Trump was an infinitely better President. Obama was a disaster and people know it, no matter how liberals turn a blind eye to the fact.
Trump was vastly better. Obama just has the news media really kiss his feet.

A real leader, always praising the others for their work and taking responsibilities for the risks. He takes his fellow men's lives and works seriously.
كذبت يمعتوه
You must have drank the entire pitcher of kool-aid.
The story of Obama's unlikely rise to the presidency from fairly humble beginnings will be told & retold throughout our nation's future. Agree with his policies or not, you cannot deny he radiates poise, intelligence, equanimity, and charisma like few leaders have. A truly unique and gifted individual.
Speak for yourself
Obama was in the right place at the right time. Also, Hillary was the person nobody wanted for President.
@chaseleopold
Thats what a comment is..?
Trouble with semantics Rusbot??
How many skulls we're cracked at todays funeral?
You are right, and you couldn't express it better. In my opinion, He is one of the best POTUS ever. History will acknowledge his honorability. His acomplishments in spite of the circumstances are astonishing even beyong his administration.
@@user-rd3oj5fw7m Yes, bombing Libya, literally doubling the US national debt, failing to revive the economy, sowing racial hatred, demonizing law enforcement, plenty of terrorist attacks in the USA...the list goes on.
When Former President Obama speaks, everyone listens. President Obama is one of the most intelligent president, America has ever had. He’s smart and articulate.
Yes, he is.
@ryanreedgibson yes we can
Awesome
There is but one “Stain” in his presidency which i am sure he knows and regrets…Joe Biden!

21:29 “we don’t have to spike the football” now that was gangsta 😂😂
Remember Deflategate?
So refreshing to hear from a real leader. Right, wrong, good, bad, right or left, this is what a leader sounds and behaves like!
great man, great president, great individual all around. he is hardcore stone cold cool. Love this man. He went about the job like a president.
Wrong wrong and wrong
Obama the economic equivalent of Adolf Hitler! Hitler unleashed the Second World War, Obama unleashed an economic analogue of the Second World War (the author of the idea is Paul Krugman, the executors of the US State Department and Special Services, the Command of Special Operations Forces)! Both of them carried out an operation under a false flag, operation canned food "Action Conserve" at Obama, Malaysian Boeing flights MH370+MH17 acted as cans!

Got to give the man credit he had class and humility, not to mention a superb command of the English language. A team leader not a one man band.
One of the best and coolest presidents of all time... whoever was lucky enough to be apart of this historic event got to experience a great moment in US history. I remember America was so united, it was a great time to be alive, I miss those days even now. It goes to show you, every now and then we get lucky and we get someone amazing as our country's leader.

WORST. PRESIDENT. EVER!!!!!!!
Wake up.
@@romanumeralz yes okay, you exist too. calm down.
also one of the bloodiest ever. see how many people die under his regime. that noble peace prize is a joke.
@@genocidegrand2057 lol wtf are you talking about, he drone-striked only 3800 terrorists, and only 300 civilians got collateral damage. btw, it's our soldiers controlling the drones, not Obama bro, soldiers miss their shots 10% of the time. How is that the bloodiest ever?? Have you seen the '100s of thousands or millions' killed during real wars? I just don't get people these days, they believe whatever.
What struck me was how often former President Obama referred to his team and praised others. When he did refer to himself it was in the first person, often in reply to a direct question and/or taking responsibility for his actions.
The complete opposite to how the current, criminally repeatedly indicted former single-term President Trump speaks, always.
NTM Obama is articulate, one of the few things Trump has never been accused of.
100% agree with everything you have said. I may not have agreed with all of Obama’s policies, but one thing I’m certain of is that he’s a thoroughly decent man, something the tangerine wannabe tyrant has never or will ever be.
@@thelaurels13 Jimmy Carter and JFK as well.
@@Mark-gg6iy And Reagan, and even Bush Jr (hate him or love him.) Trump has always been needlessly arrogant even before getting elected.
@@geraltofrivia3083 Reagan was a closet racist.
G.W. Bush started an unjustified war and to this day refuses to answer questions about the false "evidence". He is one of the worst characters to ever inhabit the WH.

@@mattent-jt9kt We need better candidates; younger candidates like Barack was when he took office. I don't think anybody on either side of the fence is excited about Biden/Trump being our most recent presidents. The parties need to look in the mirror and offer the voters better options.
melanin .. race..
Obama killed hundreds of thousands if men woman and children from the Middle East...
The media wasn't out to destroy Obama. Entire political parties weren't out to destroy Obama. Obama made mistakes on behalf of the American people, but he's 100% times better than Biden.
At this point I'd've much rather have Obama get a third term than have Biden get one💀💀

Obama is a smooth talker. No one disputes that.
I am deeply admired of his precise and accurate responses that reflect consistently his leadership skills. He acknowledges his team members in every response while reflecting his decision making process throughout the operation. Also, he is a born diplomat that he constantly highlights utmost sensitivity of this operation against other’s soil, belief, and power.
Obama was the epitome of what a president should be. If he hadn't formed the mission to capture Bin Ladin, I don't think that no other president would have. We need more Obama's as president.
@@user-gx9dq9fx4g We had one too many Obamas. Any President would have done what Obama did, and despite the whitewashing the news media gave him, Obama was a disaster.
Greatest, Smartest President in the last century
I liked the guy too but can we stop the sycophantic praising, in the end they are elite society career politicians
I disagree. I for one, voted for Obsma 2 times and I believe he means well, but hes a complete failure at uniting Americans together, foreign relations, and his baby, “obama care”. Trump pre covid, smoothed over foreign relations with most of our biggest enemies, drastically lowered illegal immigration, and provided us with a amazingly booming economy. Obama is remarkable at fitting the mold of what a president should appear like, but Trump is the guy, when you simple just want to get stuff done. Never voted for Trump before but I seen enough to know, I will definitely for him this time around. Trump 2024 👍🏾
"what was the last thing he saw?" - The inside of a rifle barrel.
"what was the last thing going through his mind?" - About 5.5 grams of lead.
cant say id ever vote for the guy but to deny his intelligence is foolish - well done.
Why you'd never vote for him is between yourself and your ingrained prejudices
Nobody can take away the fact that this President wanted our enemy eliminated and made sure that happened!
Re-watching this in 2023, the way Obama speaks during this important documenting of Bin Laden's killing in this interview is so impressive when you think about how such an interview would have gone if it were his successor being interviewed for ANY topic at all. Obama's answers are intelligent, thoughtful, concise and on point. None of that injecting bleach into the body to eliminate COVID gobbledegook.
Injecting bleach into the body. That's probably what happened to Trump.
"Did you tell Michell?" and he started to stutter😂😂😂😂
Barack is a complete epitome of what Role models look like
Apparently he killed 99 percent of civilians with his drone strikes
Lip Service
@@justynhunter9976 Stop showing your jealousy to everyone
😂
He's a career politician scumbag
It's striking how controlled he is. He doesn't give anything away even being interviewed by a top notch journalist. He's a consummate professional. And to think when he was nominated for the democratic ticket I didn't think he had enough experience for the job.
If you want to understand what kind of a player he would be at poker, listen to what Seth Meyers had to say about Obama at the White House Correspondents Dinner.
Obama attended the WHCD, went back to the WH situation room to watch the Navy Seals take out Bin Laden, in real time.
Mr President did the historic job.He is one of the tremendous character in great American history.
Bahaha😂😂😂😂 what a joke that is!

Obama was so calculated with his words and knew what to say and when to say it without saying too much or too little! Man, he should have stayed the President permanently!
Obama is the Best ever!!!! So missed!!!! So intelligent and well-spoken.
I am proud of the comments. Mostly respectful to this human being and great presidents!
We went from this to an ex-president grifting $400 gold colored Made-in-China sneakers celebrating an attack on our own Capital. Idiocracy was suppose to be a movie.

very strange watching this now
My god in heaven I miss having an intelligent thoughtful very eloquent president who actually understands all aspects of foreign policy , military capability and so much more. It’s surreal that a titan of a man like this was replaced by a literal bafoon. It is still mind boggling. The differences are those like a infantile I’ll behaved 4 yr old and an actual Harvard law scholar. 😂
The best President in the history of USA.
God I miss this man as a president
I know right. What an era we lived in
What impressed me the most was moments leading up to the raid was the deflection while at white house correspondence dinner ... How can someone play poker with the world like that! Wow !!
Bada$$ is all I can say. I would have been dribbling my soup onto my shirt!! 😂
When they flashed that video of him smiling at the dinner, I swooned. Didn’t get any better than that
It was cool having a president who talked like an intelligent human being for a little while. Between W Bush, Trump, and now Biden, it was such a slim sliver of time.
Whatever. Obama is gay and Michelle is a man. Everyone calls him "big Mike". Michael Robinson is her name. Haha...he's an idiot. And if you think he was better than Trump, you are not awake.
Biden had a stutter to overcome. He is doing an awesome job considering that he has overcome the problem.
@@RissaFirecatwut?? Hahaha
1.Obama can’t make a complete sentence without saying uhhhh.
2.He lies and can’t actually answer questions when asked. He’s a master at changing the topic.
3.He is less worse than Bush.
4. Obama doesn’t compare to Trump. Trump 2024

It would have happened no matter who was President. Obama just took the credit.
@@bigverybadtom why didn’t Bush do it when he had the chance? Obama still had to approve the plan and he was an active participant in the decision. The buck stops with him.
@@monicarenee7949 Sorry Charlie, Bush didn't have the chance. There would have been absolutely no difference no matter who was President. We put men on the Moon when Nixon was President, but it's called the Kennedy Space Center.

"We don't need to spike the football"......that's perfect!
I have to admit this when his hair changed from black to grey most likely the stress from the mission
Most definitely
Holy cow. A president who can say a single sentence without dogging their opponent from 4 years prior
Are you kidding? Obama blamed Bush for all his problems and failures.

Obama got Bin Laden. Thank you, Sir. The critics can never take this achievement away from you. 👍🏻🇺🇸
they can go to the beach and set the sea on fire and then pound the sand
History will remember Pres. Obama for getting this horrific enemy. Obama took all the responsibility for justice for our country. He would have received many attacks if this mission failed, but he was brave and took the risks.
I was in army infantry school on this glorious night, I remember the drill sergeant forming us up and letting us know that this desert rat had been killed. It made our day! 😅
Looking back at all the presidents the past 30 years Obama was by far the best.
Always carried and spoke with such class.

I'd vote for him again, if we could.
Isn’t that the truth. But after watching what he went thru, the disrespect, the racism, that no other president ever went through. They talked about his wife the way they never ever treated or talked about a First Lady. He’d never want to be president of America again/ and I don’t blame him.

@banuyam3097 should the United States have told Pakistan what they were planning to do first? Should Obama have told CNN, MSNBC, and Fox what they were planning in advance? How about informing bin Laden in case he wants to evacuate his wives and children or he just didn't want to die? Should the US have told bin Laden's neighbors, "Just in case you hear any gunfire, don't worry, we believe bin laden is here. If you know he is, please don't tell him we're coming?" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
