    It's so striking to me how Obama's smiling a little throughout, whereas everyone else (except Michelle towards the end) looks destroyed.

      Idk how they weren’t bawling their eyes out. The song is emotional without its realistic parallel to Obama leaving office. I get a tear in my eye every time I see this video and/ or hear the song. This is one of the best musicals to ever be written by the most genuine man you will ever meet. I’m just in complete awe of the performance. Well done....well done...

      Washington was in poor health at the time he stepped down. He was personally worn down by the factions in his Cabinet. At that stage in his life, George was cognizant of the message he'd be sending if he was still President and died in office. He didn't want to give the impression that 'President' was another term for 'King,' so on both a professional and personal level, he was done. Washington passed a year later, so that tells us how in sync he was with both his inherent wisdom and experience.

    Being raised in a republican, I was raised to not like Obama. After he left, I kept hearing about everything great that he did. I feel so much regret for not appreciating who he was while he was running our country…

      I just don’t like politics, like I hear the good and bad from people. I just choose to go away from any of it. Now I will Admit it I’m not Obama’s top fan, I don’t like him at all. But I will say somethings he did where pretty good.
