No, Obama is much closer to Nero; Narcissistic, head-strong and demanding and selfish (but equally foolish and ignorant), distracted by pleasures and “wine and song” (no women for Obola!), and sinking the nation into the “bread and circuses” of entertainment and diversion.

For pure corruption? Hillary by a mile.
For evil and intent? Obola, by a little bit.
For venality and lack of serious intent, lack of morals? Bill.

Actually, I think he is much closer to Commodus: the "real" Commodus, not the caricatures in either The Fall of the Roman Empire or the more recent Gladiator.

He even, IIRC, replaced Nero's bust at the Colosseum with his own--and he was left-handed, which is a coincidence but also something in common.
