People at this point I think just want a nice, likable guy. We're so sick of listening to a walking sack of s***, its just a breath of fresh air to hear a guy who doesn't have the speech patterns of a 7 year old.
let's be honest. there's only so much a president can do in an 8 year term, especially if we talk about that 8 year term vs. a system that has been broken for over 400 years now. Obama really represent a leader and what leadership looks like moreos than the exact things he's done for the black community
obama could say the non-safe right thing to say and he would be the leader of absolute change right now

stonewall started because of a brick throwing riot, obama, not because of peaceful young people saying good things and not doing anything
Obama is a very nice likeable guy, but this s*** was still going on during his term... so why people acting like hes the savior to this i dont know
Obama may not have done enough, but he enacted several policies on police reform while in office. Trump has just reversed everything he did.
This photo says it all for me about the protest chaos
Torching the police car as the joker 😳

Somebody's fantasy
I think its comforting to a lot of people to hear what a president should sound like. What leadership looks and sounds like. even for all his faults.
in terms of that sure, hes great. He always speaks really well.
but he was in a position for 8 years where he could have tried to invoke some real big changes to help deal with racism (and that could have been the best chance we had in a long long time), but he didnt do s*** to help with it
You did absolutely NOTHING to tackle these problems while you were in office for 8 f***ing years
what do u think providing healthcare to millions of lower-income americans does,
obviously it wasnt enough, especially given the gridlock,
ik that he didn't do enough for police brutality because he's not that activist guy. hes a moderate democrat
People in desperation for a leader to want to listen to a man who did nothing about situations like these in eight years of his presidency...
facts
Obama definitely still has power. Lots of pull in the democratic party and his voice holds a lot of weight with the Hilary Clinton type folk.
I guess it’s more appropriate to say, he has no direct power.
