What is Barack Obama Doing Now? Former President in French Polynesia for Month-Long Vacation
BY EMMANUELLE ESPIRITU , CHRISTIAN POST CONTRIBUTOR Mar 23, 2017 | 6:43 AM
After eight years in office in one of the world's most difficult and demanding jobs, former U.S. President Barack Obama is now taking life in a more relaxed stride. As a private citizen, Obama is now able to just go out there and soak up the sun, and where can he better do that than in the celebrated French Polynesian luxury resort, The Brando.
The former POTUS has reportedly flown to Tahiti by private jet and arrived at Faa'a International Airport just outside the capital of Papeete at around 3:30 p.m. However, he did not stay in Tahiti for long. Just 30 minutes after his arrival, he caught a ride on a much smaller private plane headed for The Brando, an eco-conscious luxury resort on the French Polynesian atoll of Tetiaroa.
The private island used to be the Tahitian royal family's favorite destination until it was bought by actor Marlon Brando in the 1960s while he was there filming the movie "Mutiny on the Bounty." The actor later renamed the island to The Brando, and it has now become the Reader's Choice Awards top pick for resorts in Australia and the South Pacific. The island can only be accessed via a 20-minute private plane ride from the nearby island of Tahiti.
The eco-minded resort takes its power from solar energy and coconut oil and is ventilated by a seawater air-conditioning system. Mosquitoes will never be a problem since the private island is also said to be home to an innovative mosquito eradication project that has even brought in researchers from Oxford University.
Obama will reportedly stay in The Brando for a month, where he is believed to be taking some time out to finally work on his memoirs, for which he and his wife Michelle have reportedly signed a $60-million deal with the Penguin Random House publisher.
The former U.S. president is also expected to visit some of the other islands in the French Polynesia, and might also be spending time on film producer David Geffen's $300-million yacht, which was previously spotted moored in Papeete, but has now since moved off the coast of the nearby island of Moorea. Geffen, who founded DreamWorks, is also a friend and big supporter of Obama.
It is not yet clear whether the rest of the former first family will be joining Obama on his French Polynesian getaway at a much later date.
The former President has also recently expressed his regards and respect for the late Chuck Berry via his official Twitter account.
In a previous interview with the Rolling Stone, Berry had been quoted to say how grateful he was to have lived long enough to see the day that a man with Obama's "qualities, features, and all that he has" would become president.
"My dad said, 'You may not live to see that day,' and I believed him. I thank God that I have," Berry said.
Lol! Yeah, he’s eating Polynesian “food”. He told the Secret service to go party and he’s doing his thing. I’d bet $ on it.
Obama is in flight to avoid prosecution for intercepting and distributing President Trump’s communications, IMHO.
Does he EVER do anything besides take vacations?
He did a pretty good job of hurting the United States.
Obama said he wanted to stay in DC until his daughter graduated from high school and Malia finally went to college.
So he leaves DC and leave them all alone?
What is this all about? Extradition? Reggie?
And where is Michelle? more liposuction?

Maybe he is going to meet up with some BOYS there.
So wee barry is on vacation, YET AGAIN, all alone.
He's not writing ANYTHING; he is incapable of writing a book. If/when such a book comes out....he isn't the one who wrote it!
Yes, Geffen is an homosexual.
Private jet, important yacht, another private island. Check/check/check.
If this guy ever has to fly commercial he’ll go into DTs.
But that’ll never happen b/c it would be racist to make him do that.
Barack Obama — Man of the People.
Notice how many times the word “private” is used here? There’s nothing wrong with that. But while he is flying around in the part of the world and ever decides to fly commercial, may I suggest Malaysian Airlines?
He is stirring up trouble that is what he is doing now..
Poofter sex out of sight out of mind. Disgusting.

“Along the sand, let’s walk the shore together now, just hand in hand. It’s gonna be fair weather now, when the stars come out, stop to count them in the sky”. (Apologies to Lesley Gore’s ‘California Nights’, circa 1965!)
who is paying for this “vacation” Osama or US taxpayers? With this ex traitor in chief I wouldn’t be surprised if he issued an executive order to grand him free vacations for life and stick the US taxpayers his bill.
“Seize him and return him for trial!!”
Aww, let ‘em KEEP him’. Forever.
Trying to stay out of the public eye while his henchmen try to bring down the Trump administration.....
Which one is Barry they both look like the supposed daughter Malaria.
Hanging out with faggots in French Polynesia.
