The president makes a forceful case for Clinton and warns against the threat of ‘homegrown demagogues.’
Twelve years after he first addressed a Democratic National Convention, and eight years after he became the first black presidential nominee of a major party, President Barack Obama President Barack Obama cast the election to succeed him as a “fundamental choice.”
Speaking on the penultimate night of the convention, Obama made a forceful case for his former rival. He’s not likely to have an audience like this again as president, and Obama soaked in the cheers from a party that, despite its divisions, remains enthralled by his charisma and vision.
Obama’s aides had said before the speech that it would be more of a positive testimonial for Hillary Clinton than anything else. But Obama also delivered a passionate indictment of Donald Trump, casting him as a menace whose positions aren’t just on the other side of the political spectrum, but on a different spectrum all together.
This election, Obama said, is “not just a choice between parties or policies; the usual debates between left and right. This is a more fundamental choice – about who we are as a people, and whether we stay true to this great American experiment in self-government.”

Yeah it is a creepy pic,
I’ve said for some time now, that demonic spirit in Obama will not leave the White House willingly, whoever moves in in January will have to receive it, it is not leaving willingly, Trump will need to call in an exorcist,
Maybe this is what it looks like finding its new home,
(and yeah, I wish I was just being sarcastic)
uh-huh?????????????
Nice...
What I coincidence! I’m ready for him to pass it too!
He’s more aggressive attacking Trump than radical Islam!
Obama looked weird. Looks like his whole face was botoxed
Doesn’t Obama mean “I’m ready to drop the mic.”...?
That’s code for “I’m ready to drop the soap”..
He’s just saying that to make us feel like he’ll actually leave office.
Kaposi’s if she spent time with Bill.
He swallowed a baton? Well, he's had lots of practice...
Why wait for January? Leave before the next Wikileak.
GREAT fodder for the political cartoonists (especially Ramirez) . Wonder what label they will put on the baton?
Most of these left-wingers are oddballs who basically want to do their own thing & have everyone go along with it. Each one is living in his or her own fantasy world.
I can't imagine a community with any of these people, let alone a country. (How many 1960s communes lasted?) They will move on somewhere else once they get bored or frustrated. Most will self-destruct through either drugs or suicide.
Mooselimb faggot go home! ...
