Former President Barack Obama was honored with the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award at a gala in midtown Manhattan Wednesday evening.
"I'm not sure if you've heard, but I've been on this hope kick for a while now. Even ran a couple of campaigns on it. Thank you for officially validating my hope credentials," Obama said during his remarks.
The organization's president, Kerry Kennedy, presented the award, which celebrates leaders "who have demonstrated a commitment to social change." Past recipients include Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Bono, George Clooneyand Robert De Niro.
"If we summon our best selves, we can inspire others to do the same. It's easy to succumb to cynicism, the notion that hope is a fool's game," Obama said.
"When our leaders are content on making up whatever facts they want, a lot of people have begun to doubt the notion of common ground," Obama said.

Yeah, right .
Tell it to the Iranian protesters Obama flipped the bird to.
No. It’s what happens when you quite literally sell your soul: gain the world, lose enternity.
It's always the same Lefty bunch giving each other awards for being part of the same team.
A bunch of self-congratulations and myopic narcissism.
You know when Obama, Clooney and the vulgar DeNiro are together, it's a bunch of phonies who have inflated views of their own self-importance telling each other how important they think they are.
Lol lol lol!

You couldn’t pay me enough to go to this event.
Did they also give him the golden butt plug he earned?
That award and two reefers will get you a BJ from Barry.
Obama shares Sirhan Sirhan’s political views.
Colonel Qaddafi could not be reached for comment.
They hated Jesus Christ. They thought they were above Him. They thought He did not know of which He spoke. They crucified Jesus.
Jesus said “forgive them for they know what they do.”
I keep telling myself what they are doing to our President, it will not stick.. it will change... they won’t win this... And I keep seeihg their attempts ending in failures. The caravans almost certainly got our wall built. Their constant insults and hatred spread on the airwaves are turning people TO Trump instead of against. It solidifies his base. They wanted to have their meeting yesterday, in private... what we all saw was a backfire on them!
Their catty talk, their insults, their stupidity, their lies... they are so off the wall, so awful, it affects people out here .. we all know they are so far in the extreme, they are not believed. Makes a person want to slap them into another world.
The million dead in the mideast and the hundreds murdered including 16 schoolchildren by the weapons obama gave mexican drug cartels were unable to denounce the SOB.
This reminds me of a cold war headline: Leonid Brezhnev wins the Lenin Peace Prize.
Yes, RFK who we now know wire-tapped more people in a shorter time as Attorney General for JFK than Nixon did in his longer time in office. The Leftist RFK foundation awards a Leftist prez a misnamed award. Duh.
So true that this President is a masterful fighter who takes whatever they throw at him and turns it into gold. A real Midas!
I remember my dad’s almost reverence for Patton, his CO at the Bulge and to the end. But I have not had the fortune to see for myself a leader who is a master at strategy, action and in the bad times, like Washington, motivation of his troops.
Most important, to me on a personal level, was his stunning courage and commitment to move the Embassy to Jerusalem while at the same time joining Saudi Arabia’s new leadership (MBS) with our country and Israel. Unreal.
The origin of the word "gala" comes from the word "gallows."
Just sayin.
Was this for organizing the caravan or Antifa?
The liberal circle jerk.
Gay la la!
