    Haha. Somehow I haven’t seen that before. Obama was a very likeable person.

    Edit: idk why I said “was”. He’s not dead. He is a likeable person.

      Eh, Obama oversaw the expansion of our national surveillance state apparatus, so…not everybody felt he was very likable.

        Oh, some of his actions were certainly not likeable, like your point, authorizing missile strikes, continuation of the war, extension of the Patriot Act, etc… But his personality was likeable and charming, which is more than I can say for most of the President’s during my lifetime.
