    We sure do miss you Mr. President. Not one day did I ever wake up worrying that you weren't in control of things. I'm 65 years old and I doubt I'll ever see another as good a man as you in the people's house. Peace be with you and Michelle and your lovely girls.

    This President Obama will be missed from so many people in USA and surely many other countries too. He really is the greatest President of ages, since i grown up early 1960´s
    There couldn´t be any other President easy following his footsteps, specially not the President D.T.
    There couldn´t be more space between this 2 President than any other before. May you all excuse my bad english, bcs i am German.
    I followed most of President Obamas actions in the white house, specials with Musicians, or any other occasion. I never saw a Leader of the western world, who ever was singing in front of a audience, the way he did.He brought humanity and heartiness to a place that usually isn´t, in the white house.
    His family and especially his great first Lady made USA really looking Great. I truly wish for the people in USA, that all he brought and fixed for the citizens , will not be gone, since president D.T. took his Place in the white house..

    I remember reading the works of an old philosophy professor I had. White guy. Stark conservative, Republican and all things opposite of President Obama. He said “History will remember him fondly. The soul of this nation will long for him one day because he is a once in a lifetime human. There will be no other like him for generations. History will forget the debates, the politics, the missteps & the media, but history will remember how he made the world feel. As much as you wanted to hate the guy, he loved more.” This professor died but in his “last act of humanity” he revealed after his death that he voted for President Obama in his second term breaking a 100 year family stance on always voting Republican. He wanted his grandchildren to be “politically free”.

      vellyvell33 Do I need to correct your sentence as well? Also, just in case you hadn't noticed, there is nothing great about this president. Other than making history as the first half black president, he has been a failure. So please, get with the program.

      Saved the auto industry, killed OSAMA BIN LADEN, health care for ALL and got us out of 2 wars BUSH STARTED! THAT'S just some of the things this GREAT PRESIDENT has accomplished and half BLACK is BLACK!!!!!

    • @vellyvell33
      @vellyvell33 9 років тому +1

      First..humble yourself to be corrected...You left out great in your first reply..then you admit that he is great..as being the first half black president...when he is actually African-American..not half black...You wrote that..there is nothing..great about this president..then you wrote other than...it's either..he is...or he isn't...When you get enlightened by the truth..you will realize that..God doesn't make mistakes..neither can He lie...Do you know how to give honor when honor is due..or are you one of those folks who give it..only when it's towards you...And the president is not a failure...can you fill his shoes?
      You bow before the truth...God placed him there...and God doesn't make mistakes.

      Yes they taught us about the bengazi scandal, the Hillary email scandal, the gun running by the justice dept and the god forsaken affordable care act, It made the working mans medical insurance unaffordable. Obama the worst president ever.
