(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

President Obama spoke yesterday at the 2014 U.S.-Africa Summit in Washington, D.C.

"I want to thank," the president began.

He continued: "Last year in South Africa, in Soweto," he said, "I held a town hall."

Later, the president discussed Africa's expanding energy market: "I don’t want to just sustain this momentum, I want to up it."

"I just want to close," he ultimately concluded -- having eventually referred to himself 68 times in a 44 minute appearance*.

*Grabien staff calculated this number to the best of our adding ability. We make no guarantees. Here is the full transcript.

Someone should merge this with the video where he wipes his nose every five seconds, you know, because of his cocaine habit.

I will take your word for it...

Honestly, I am left thinking “only 68 times?”...

The fact that everybody makes fun of him for making everything about him doesn’t seem to phase him. Just seems to make him do it more.

Nope. I’ve listened to approximately 50 words that have come out of his mouth in the 6 years since he visited D.C. That was enough. I don’t want to go over 51.

He is the GOD-KING Ruler of Amerika. Everything is about him.

Just ask any of his adoring sycophants in the US Mainstream Media about this.

None of the African leaders will get one-on-one meetings with Mr. Obama, but the White House arranged for Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. to meet with the leaders of South Africa and Nigeria.

African Leaders aren't important enough to meet one-on-one with Obama, sends in Crazy Uncle Joe.
