WINNIPEG, Canada Former President Barack Obama said Monday these are "challenging times" but he remains hopeful because of the next generation of leaders that he aims to guide.
Touching on his "third act," the 44th president spoke of programs that have become a central pillar of his Obama Foundation and its $500 million presidential center project in Chicago.
He told a packed arena at Bell MTS Place how he plans to create a "university for social change" that will serve as a hub for young people in the U.S. and around the world who are skeptical of the "old institutions."
"If we train them if we give them skills, support, financing, media training, spotlights, then they're the ones that are going to carry forward the solutions that we so desperately need," Obama said.
He then amplified a vision he shared in Japan last year in which the new global class of future leaders are molded in his or his wife Michelle Obama's image.
"If we could form a network of those young leaders, not just in the United States, but around the world, then we got something," he said, adding, "if we can train a million Baracks and Michelles who are running around thinking they can change the world" hope is achievable.
Loud applause ensued.
Obama also spoke about his two terms as president and his relationship with Canada and its leaders during hour-long-plus discussion with moderator Michael Burns, the former CEO of the Invictus Games.
He didn't talk directly about his successor in the White House, President Trump, or the 2020 election, but he did take a jab at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., provided a clue about how soon he might complete his first book since leaving office, and shared his admiration of Joe Biden, who was his vice president and is now looking at a bid for president.
Obama will continue his tour through Canada on Tuesday, with speaking events in Vancouver and Calgary.
There’s a limit to the number of $300,000 no show hospital jobs in Chicago...
Here he is cutting the ribbon on the "Barack Obama School for Kids Who Can't Read Good"
The comrades just won’t go away.
When the scope of Spygate is finally made public, one Hussein Obama will be in a heap of trouble...bigly.
That photo DOES NOT look like its Obama.....stand in?
Not just a narcissistic sociopath but a malignant narcissistic sociopath.
Train a million baracks, to do what, hate America and suck d!cks?
GAG. Well I guess he's got to do something with his (cough) "federal inheritance."
=====================================
(HAT TIP RJSIMON) Unfortunately, his 8 years in office has already bore fruit. There are millions of whiny,
ungrateful, self-serving, narcissistic, anti-American, hateful, lazy, villainous people that continue to push this
country to the brink of ruin.
All they do is demand more and more handouts from working Americans.
And let's not forget the Jussie Smollettes of the world. A perfect example of the Halfrican; feeding his
malignant narcissism, insulting millions of Americans, creating a tissue of lies as a way to get a bigger payday.
If Obama had a son........
Mrs B as a role model for America? I dont think so. She's too busy shopping
to be of any help....plus trying on $4000 thigh-high boots keeps her pretty busy.
Affirmative action nobodys who never actually worked a day in their lives?
Incompetent fools given pretend jobs so that their employers could virtue signal about their commitment to diversity? (And for reasons of Corruption in the case of Mochelle.)
No. We don't need any more of those. We need people of real accomplishment.
REFERENCE--- Obama's $1.3B giveaway to Iran was paid in cash Jan 22 and Feb 5 from a little-known fund administered by the US Treasury.The so-called Judgment Fund is made up of tax dollars Congress has permanently approved in the event it's needed....
SOURCE: fiscaltreasury.gov. -----The Judgment Fund was established to pay court judgments and Justice Department compromise settlements of actual or imminent lawsuits against the government. It is administered by the Judgment Fund Section, which is a part of the United States Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Fiscal Service. The Judgment Fund Internet Claims System (JFICS) is the application used to process all Judgment Fund claims.
The Judgment Fund is a permanent, indefinite appropriation available to pay judicially and administratively ordered monetary awards against the United States. The Judgment Fund is also available to pay amounts owed under compromise agreements negotiated by the U.S. Department of Justice in settlement of claims arising under actual or imminent litigation, if a judgment on the merits would be payable from the Judgment Fund. The statutory authority for the Judgment Fund is 31 U.S.C. 1304.
If funds for paying an award are otherwise provided for in the appropriations of the defendant agency, the Judgment Fund may not pay an award. A federal agency may request that payment of an award be made on its behalf from the Judgment Fund only in those instances where funds are not legally available to pay the award from the agency's own appropriations.
Amounts paid vary significantly from year-to-year. Federal agencies are not required to reimburse the Judgment Fund except when cases are filed under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) or the No FEAR Act (Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act).

Will they have to wear armbands?
Iran: One of the linchpins of former President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran was that it would be accompanied by a near-ban on Iran having any access to the U.S. banking system. A new congressional report says that, too, was a lie.
[snip] Obama sent a clear message to Congress: If you don't block ( this nuclear deal), we will bar Iran's access to our financial system. The deal was clear, unequivocal. [snip]It was also a lie. Obama lied, and so did others in his administration.
That's the conclusion of a report by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. It alleges Obama officials pushed the U.S. Treasury to let Iran convert the equivalent of $5.7 billion of funds held in Oman's Bank of Muscat from rials into dollars and subsequently into euros.
[snip]Apart from the lie, which is bad enough for an administration that claimed repeatedly to be "scandal-free," this money did not have innocuous uses. Far from it. (Excerpt) Read more at investors.com ...

UT-OH--J.Ansari Zarif, the Iranian deputy for parliamentary and Iranian affairs within Irans Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
said he would expose "everyone who allegedly accepted bribes" to facilitate Obama's nuke deal with Iran. "........
"We will reveal which western politicians received bribes."
It's coming...
He wants to take his own Saul Alinksy community organizer training and put it on steroids. A future with thousands of Baracks running around will not be a good one.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." SUMMARY. In the Pledge of Allegiance we all pledge allegiance to our Republic, not to a democracy.
He had 8 years to do whatever he wanted as the Rs were very helpful to him. He has the biggest ego. It’s a long fall off of a high horse for he and the Mooch.
Hey Omabajugend, you didn’t build this country and it is unconstitutional to impose Communism and redistribution on American liberties.
Ah, word usage. Isn't "training" what you do with captive animals?
On the human level it sounds like conditioning. /Pavlov
Affirmative action nobodys who never actually worked a day in their lives?
Obama uses this sort of rhetoric because it is popular with anti-Americans i.e., Socialists. Socialism is a siren song to the indoctrinated. Head start is such a program....get government out of it and leave that program to the states. Michelle is too busy with fashion and Obama is too egotistic and Marxist to see what harm he did to this nation and he has surrounded himself with far left thinkers with whom he is most comfortable with.
NO TO RAISING UP MORE OBAMA TYPE ANTI-AMERICANS! OBAMA'S DON'T WANT YOU TO HAVE YOUR CONSTITUTION, PERIOD.
