Full article title: Obama: I Will Consider It An Insult To My Legacy If You Do Not Vote; Want to Give Me A Good Send Off? Go Vote
President Obama made a strong sell for a candidate to succeed his legacy at the Congressional Black Caucus dinner Saturday night. The president invoked slavery and the Jim Crow era and preached that if they wanted to give him a good send off then register people to vote because his legacy is at stake.
Although he did not name Hillary Clinton, the president said he would consider it a personal insult from the African-American community if they did not for her.
"My name may not be on the ballot, but our progress is on the ballot," President Obama said Saturday night. "And there is one candidate who will advance those things. And there is another candidate who's defining principal, the central theme of his candidacy is opposition to all that we have done."
"There's no such thing as a vote that doesn't matter," Obama said. "It all matters. And after we have achieved historic turnout in 2008 and 2012, especially in the African-American community, I will consider it a personal insult, an insult to my legacy, if this community lets down it's guard and fails to activate itself in this election. You want to give me a good send off? Go vote!"

Obama is a sick bastard.
He failed to inspire in the two midterms. He might do something for H here but his history would say no.
Obama’s most famous quote...... “I”
Yep, I agree, and so do MILLIONS of REAL Americans, which is why Trump is gaining votes, and Hillary is losing them.
Go to hell Obama you suck.
You want to give me a good send off? Go vote!”

It’s apparent to me while watching the Democrats over the last week or so...they have a problem with Black turnout and/or fidelity.
Mr. President, I promise you that I will vote, and that I will be motivated by your legacy when I do so.
