A campaign to make Barack Obama the president of France is gathering steam… but why?

If you think you’ve glimpsed campaign posters for “Obama 17” across Paris then you’re not mistaken.

The posters, which have been pasted to walls around Paris in recent days, are calling for a fresh face in the 2017 presidential race — that of the former president of the US.

Under a picture of the former US President are the words “Oui, on peut”, the French translation of Obama’s “Yes we can” slogan.

This is the globalist gang that is pushing this...if Our Lady wins, France will go Frexit and that will be the end of the EU...

I’m hoping she wins...

Can we start a go fund me or something similar to send him. If he’s screwing up their country he may not have time to screw ours up.

Wow! I have to give this some thought. France wants to fail faster? How does that affect America? I thought Obama was a shoe in for Grand Master-Pontiff-Almighty-Leader-King-President-Messiah, Esquire of the United Nations.

I think he’d be better off as president of Kenya or South Africa. France is on the UN Security Council, right? Security Council members cannot be UN President or whatever the UN calls its Fearless Leader.

But after a year of being president of Kenya he could be UN Secretary General.

The good French will regret it, the bad French won’t. Sort of like here.

They get that he does not speak french right? I assume the globalists are not happy with their candidates. Since the US is not using their Muslim president maybe they could borrow him from the US for 6 years. Globalists don’t seem to mind that he isn’t French and that says it all about globalists.

Yeah right, maybe 100 people in all of France would even consider this.

But the MSM wants to make it sound like it’s some mass movement.

I bet more people in France would want Robert Mugabe to be President of France.
