Woah, everyone calm down. This is not a political article. Over the past eight years of President Obama's time in office, I have come to genuinely love this guy. I'm not talking about his policies and beliefs as a Democrat. No, I just actually love this dude as a person, a father, a friend, and a husband. Everybody deserves to be Obama-cared about. Here are a few characteristics about Barack that everyone should look for in a significant other:
1. Barack is exceptional with children.
Whether it is organizing Trick-or-Treating at the White House, making a baby stop crying, or telling corny dad jokes at the Turkey Pardon, President Obama has an undeniable bond with children.
2. He loves his own children more than life.
"Of all that I've done in my life, I am most proud to be your dad." -Barack Obama at his final farewell address
3. He knows how to be a best friend.
4. He's a good dancer.
Get a man who knows how to shake it.5. He won't abandon you.
"I never really knew my own father. I was raised by a single mom. That's why I try every day to be, for Michelle and my girls, what my father was not for my mother and me." -Barack Obama at Morehouse College Commencement Ceremony in 20136. He is hilarious.
7. He knows how to have a good time.
Even after eight years in the White House doing the most difficult job in America, this man can STILL be this happy on his much-deserved vacation.8. His wife is a powerhouse, and he fully supports her for it.
A lot of guys I have met in college are intimidated by powerful women like Michelle in fear that these women might outshine them, but not my dude Barack. Michelle has been one of the most influential and ground-shaking First Ladies in history, yet President Obama does not hide her in the White House or use her for publicity and photo ops. Instead, he is her biggest fan and shows her off any time he can.9. He understands the significance of sexual assault.
"Real men do not hurt women. Those of us who are fathers have a special obligation to make sure every young man out there understands that being a man means recognizing sexual violence and being outraged by it and doing their part to stop it... You are not alone; I got your back." -Barack Obama's January 25, 2014, Weekly Address
10. He believes everyone should be treated as equals.
Under President Obama's administration and advocacy, gay marriage was legalized in all 50 states. Not only does he believe in equality based on sexuality and gender, but also equality for women and those from all types of socioeconomic backgrounds.
11. He's just smooth.
Everyone deserves a Barack Obama in their life. Everyone deserves to feel like this.
In the meantime, I'll just wait for my Obama in shining armor. Thanks, Obama.
