Barack Obama endorses French presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron days before runoff election
« on: May 04, 2017, 07:34:39 pm »
Former President Barack Obama couldn’t swing America’s last election in his favor, but now he’s jumping into France’s anyway.

Obama on Thursday endorsed centrist French presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron in a video in which he nonetheless vowed to keep quiet about most other elections.

“I’m not planning to get involved in many elections now that I don’t have to run for office again,” Obama said in a video posted on Macron’s Twitter account.

“But the French election is very important to the future of France and the values we care so much about. Because the success of France matters to the entire world.”

Yeah we see how well Obamaesque policies (aka socialist) have worked in France.

Apparently it's ok if the Dems interfere in other nations' elections.

Well, thats good for another 7 points for le Pen.

Don't think the Worm is capable of realizing just how detested and despised he is in Europe.

Obama has always been a solipsist. He thinks the world of himself and is reflexively dismissive of any who might disagree.

By the way, I also wish to thank @Oceander for your avatars. Both of them.

I did go with Tom Selleck, but then I don't think gender is really all that mutable.

He'll deny it, of course, but I do think it's one of his better pieces. Really captures the spirit of my girl.
