Barack Obama
Barack Hussein Obama II (born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States, the first African American to hold the office. Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney in Chicago and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. He served three terms representing the 13th District in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004, running unsuccessfully for the United States House of Representatives in 2000. In 2004, Obama received national attention during his campaign to represent Illinois in the United States Senate with his victory in the March Democratic Party primary, his keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July, and his election to the Senate in November.

Just felt like sharing something good in politics
thanks, Obama!
in the unironic sense!-
Saved!Sir LaroseninEditing … I was going to argue with you. In fact I had 3-4 lines written when I realised you said "unironic" instead of "ironic".

Saved!Sir LaroseninEditing … “Many people will use words today like leniency and mercy,” said Kevin Ring, who serves as vice president of Families Against Mandatory Minimums. “But what really happened is that a group of fellow citizens finally got the punishment they deserved. Not less, but, at long last, not more.” Amen!

Saved!Husky WingEditing … Well, it's good to know people that wouldn't let me be an idiot, had I said ironic :p
-
Saved!AramondeEditing … I'd have to know what these guy were in for but if they had life sentences i doubt it was for just selling pot. So lets release hundreds of drug criminals back on the streets nothing can go wrong right?
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … These are all non-violent offenders, and yes, people in the US *have* been sentenced to life simply for selling weed.
-
Saved!Sir LaroseninEditing … From what I read some of them still have a 20+ years sentence, but at least they will get out at some point

Saved!Barack Obama is still in support of the TPP http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/02/politics/obama-singapore-state-visit-tpp-trade-deal/
- Clinton was previously for it, was a major lobbyist for it, but now claims to be against it.
- Tim Kaine was previously for it, only recently claimed to be against it.
- Donald Trump historically opposed most trade deals, and it's no surprise that he'd claim to oppose this one, however, he's profitted off almost every one of these trade deals.
- Mike Pence has a history of supporting free trade deals, but now claims to oppose this one.
- Gary Johnson supports the TPP, being a free trade warrior.
- Strangely, I don't think Jill's said much on the subject.
- Bernie Sanders opposes the TPP.
Just thought it might be interesting to share each candidate's opinions.-
Saved!André MayfieldEditing … I dont know what is wrong with TPP. i aint saying ive followed it a ton, but if you wanna give me a quick explaining about how it works, would be mad appreciated

Saved!Husky WingEditing … Here's a 2012 infographic from the EFF https://www.eff.org/files/images_insert/tpp_1.png - since that was made, the TPP's anti-slavery clause has been removed. Here's the EFF's TPP homepage https://www.eff.org/issues/tpp

Saved!André MayfieldEditing … i dont like the fact that its at least partly done as a secret thing. i dont like secrets in government stuff, thats how they keep putting our money into dumb shit
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … The only reason we even know all the negatives of this deal are because they were leaked. The US government has worked hard to keep some secrets.
-
Saved!André MayfieldEditing … okay some of that stuff aint even shady is straight up morally wrong. like the tobacco companies tryna get the warning labels off the packs. that shits just wrong
-
Saved!André MayfieldEditing … all in all it sounds shitty. im sure it has a lot of positives, but the fact its worked in secrecy makes me think that aint possible that its too nice if you gotta hide it

Saved!"A North Dakota man who allegedly claimed to be Jesus was arrested in D.C. this week after planning to kidnap one of the Obama family's pets, authorities said.
Scott D. Stockert, 49, was arrested Wednesday night at a Hampton Inn near the Washington Convention Center after Secret Service agents found unregistered firearms in his truck, as well as hundreds of rounds of ammunition, according to authorities.
Agents went to the hotel after getting a "be on the lookout" alert from the Secret Service's Minnesota field office about the alleged kidnapping plan.
He allegedly told them, "You picked the wrong person to mess with. I will (expletive) your world up."
According to the Secret Service, Stockert, of Dickinson, North Dakota, allegedly planned to take Bo, the older of two Portuguese water dogs owned by the Obamas.
While being questioned by Secret Service agents, Stockert allegedly said he'd planned to go to the Capitol to advocate for $99-per-month health care and to announce he was running for president.
He also told the agents his parents were John F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe, the court document said.
Agents found an unloaded 12-gauge pump shotgun and a bolt-action rifle in Stockert's truck, which was parked in a lot around the corner at 5th and K streets NW, according to the document.
They also discovered 289 rounds of .22-caliber long-rifle bullets, 71 rounds of 12-gauge shotgun ammunition and two rounds of .223 rifle ammunition, plus a machete with a 12-inch blade and an 18-inch bully club, the court document said.
Stockert was then arrested.
As he was being transported, he told authorities that he was Jesus Christ, according to a court document. He claimed they could verify his identity on his driver's license, the document said. However, the license identified him as Scott Stockert."

Saved!When Obama isn't president anymore will I be able to say "Thanks Obama"?

Saved!ErektionsiteEditing … The next president better have a good name for a meme or else their presidency is an instant failure. Memes are more important than politics and such nonsense.

Saved!Be honest-- how often do you guys think about what Obama would be like as a Pokemon?
