Deep into the seventh year of his tenure, Barack Obama is thinking about his post-presidential legacy. We know this because hes telling us so.
In an interview this week with The Atlantic about the potential deal with Iran regarding its nuclear program, the president sought to use the fact of his relative youth and his consciousness about how history might judge him to his advantage: Look, 20 years from now, Im still going to be around, God willing. If Iran has a nuclear weapon, its my name on this. I think its fair to say that in addition to our profound national-security interests, I have a personal interest in locking this down.
In one sense, this is what we want presidents to worry about. We want them to be restrained by the cautionary examples provided by history and by the fact that history will judge them.

true..... Obama and his crew want to suck the white boys dry to pay for their redistribution of cash to peoples of colors. Asians too gotta pay up!! To support Obama’s parasites
I worked with educated black people. Most, but not all, had a chip on their shoulder.
Obama is going to be a pain in the American ass for a long time to come.
One wonders if that continued pain is justifiable
Thankfully 2016 is coming.
Being in the “nuclear” club is what makes a country truly sovereign.
Clinton put that on display with the Balkans war. Nato violated its own charter to get involved. It showed all the actors at the Nation State level, that if you did not have nuclear weapons, treaties did not mean squat.
Obama just demonstrated it again with Ukraine. We “guaranteed” their borders when they gave up their nuclear weapons, and everyone sees how that worked out.
Isis certainly wants nukes, because that pretty much guarantees that they will not be messed with.
Islam, by its nature, does not believe in treaties anyway (except as a way to rest and rearm), so the above probably is something they would understand as part of their doctrine.
Obama’s “legacy” has been the destruction of America and the American way of life.
THAT legacy isn’t going away for many years to come, if ever.
Actually I don't want this to happen to any young girl. Including Obama's daughters. My problem is that he is giving cover the Islamists that do promote female child mutilation.
if he's telling us, then it's likely not true. Geesh! For a guy that's been around, podhoretz doesn't even know the basics.
