Time is almost up. The President's term that is. It was a sight seeing him sworn in and it's going to be a sightseeing him leave. The United States has to admit that they have not seen such a first family like the Obama's that has made us proud in their respect to this country and it's people. I'm going to miss this family and this man. With that being said, here are five things I love and will miss about President Barack Obama.
1. His Random Moments of Bursting Out in SONG…
The President has serious singing skills, in fact, the video above shows him singing a little Al Green while speaking at a press conference. He made the world smile with his knowledge of R&b soul. Al Green should be proud.
2. His Recognition of Black History Month
The President approaches race issues with ease. In the above video, Tracey Braxton, sister of singer Toni Braxton, was recorded screaming "Hey, Michelle!" and the Mr. President humorously with "You know it's Black History Month when you hear, "Hey, Michelle". " I love how he tries to seep Black culture/trend into the White House. For instance, his annual Women of Soul Concert that features Black musicians like Jill Scott, Patti Labelle, Queen Latifah and more.
3. His Wife...The First Lady Should Run For President. #FLOTUS4PREZ
First Lady Michelle should be president. She has by far been the most active first lady that I have ever got a chance to see in office. The most salient work she's done is her health initiatives that sparked great debate throughout the education system across America. She has even put herself in music with starting dance events that promote body movement and participating in "parody" rap music videos. The first lady does it all.
4. His Honesty
(He is the REALEST)The President has never been known to mince his words. In fact, he is a really outspoken and confident man. In the video above, he responds to a heckler interrupting his press conference. His response to the heckler is "You're in my house." Respect this man he will not let you walk over him.
5. His Compassion (I Hate To See Him Cry....But I Am Proud to See Him as Human)
The President has had an unfortunate disadvantage of serving two terms that have been witness to many tragedies including school shootings, marathon bombings, and movie theater massacres. With that being said, the president has never not shed a tear for those that have fallen victim to these tragedies. In fact, the above video shows him crying for those victims who were injured and/or killed during the Connecticut school shootings. He reflected on being a parent and imagining what the victims' parents had to go through with the tragic loss of their child(ren).
***Bonus: His Humor****
He is funny as hell. In fact, the president has jokes for days and his "reading" skills are phenomenal. In the video above, with the help of a celebrity comedian, the President addresses his grievances in a hilarious stunt. The president might need therapy after this.
We look forward to seeing what you will do after your term has come to an end. I don't believe that it could ever be a President as wonderful and charismatic as you. Goodbye, Mr. President.
