SHOUT OUT to Barack Obama for no particular reason other than his leadership, intelligence, dignity & humor. I also miss having a President who looks comfortable wielding a lightsaber. 🎂 pic.twitter.com/4kfkBQH312

People care far more about image than substance. Obama presided over the largest decrease in African-American wealth in modern history. He also vastly increased the scope and scale of the surveillance state and drone warfare. He also gave banskters, crooks, and criminals permission to loot the economy and did nothing to check this at all — in fact, he encouraged it.
Obama was a failure of a president, who, though not wholly terrible, made America worse and allowed others free rein to do the same.
