It’s never too late for Soetoro to lose his pension, perks, and SS detail, and to spend life in prison for dozens of felonies.


The Logan act that everyone is trying to apply to Flynn and Trump before taking office also applies to ex-Presidents when they leave office and become private citizens.

Also former presidents should either be addressed as “former president” or Mr. Bush, Mr. Clinton, Mr. Obama, etc. When they are no longer president. The office and the title are meant to be term limited and never confirmed as a lifelong title of address. In the historical context of their term of presidency they should be referred to as president such as “It was President Bush, who did this or that.” as this is referring to an action he did as president. Before and after service as president, he is Mr. Bush or Former President Bush. As follows “Former president, George W. Bush, lives in Texas.” or “How are you today, Mr. Clinton?” Never ever address a former official with a power title when it is no longer their position, as it is an insult to the entire system and any idea that its polite or prestigious is just rude, ignorant and damning. This should apply to all former government officials except when referencing their time as the official. Such as “We are so happy to meet you, Mrs. Clinton.” “I would like to introduce you to Mrs. Clinton, the Former First Lady of the United States. She is also a former senator for New York and the former secretary of state for then President Obama.” It should app!y to all former officials, they are Mr., Mrs., Ms. or “former” “insert former title” as they are again just an ordinary citizen like the rest of the populace, remind them there is no ruling class (a theory which needs protection) and they are not entitled to permanently be addressed by a title they were temporarily serving as. The media and we the people need reminding of that it is rude and insulting to our system to call someone by a tit!e that is no longer applicable to their current status as a citizen.
