| Obama Sez - “I actually think I’m a pretty good president," |
| 2015-07-28 |
When's that ever stopped him before? Compared to Robert Mugabe, maybe...While discussing democracy during his last speech in Ethiopia on Tuesday, President Obama jokingly graded his presidency -- Certified Fresh -- and his imaginary 2016 chances. "I actually think I'm a pretty good president," he said. "I think if I ran, I would win." "But," he added, "I can't." |

| #19 Narcissist. So of course he has a high opinion of himself - anything goes wrong its always someone else's fault. We've had a mentally ill person in charge of the nation now for years. |

| #17 This is the kind of crap that happens when you live in an echo chamber. You get delusions of grandeur. And I think this is a call for supports to 'demand' he be allowed a 3rd term. Term Limits shouldn't apply to protected ethnics anyway right? |

| #15 Israel's Justice Minister MK Ayelet Shaked has confirmed minutes ago that the US parole board has recommended that Jonathan Pollard be released this coming Nov. 20th after 30 years in prison. It is not clear if Pollard will be allowed to leave the US and move to Israel. |

| #13 Every time I hear this I think of Winston Churchill. "I like to think that if things had turned out differently, I might have held this gavel myself" (HEAVILY PARAPHRASED) on speaking to a joint session of Congress which is held in the House |

| #11 Might want to recheck Shipman; the way I read the amendment, as VP the clock starts fresh each 4 years. and VP is unlimited. either way Jan 2016 cannot come quick enough. |

| #10 He would not be eligible for VP because the requirements say you must be eligible to be President. This went around when folks were joking about a George Bush Sr with VP Reagan white house back in the day. |

| #9 What he could do if he was a better politician is run for a House seat and become the next Sam Rayburn. But he ain't got the skill set by a long shot to be like Mistuah Sam. |

| #8 No go Navy, he might be elected VP but his disqualified from being President again, The Speaker of the House would be next in line. |

| #6 I don't think he's kidding; rather tossing some 'ideas' to those behind the curtain to maybe have him stand in as the VP for whichever D gets the nomination. Then assuming a D win, the 'prez' could resign, calling it personal reasons and there you have it, a third, legal term. Or an EO declaring term limits illegal. |

| #4 "If I ran, I would win." SO he thought Reagan and George W Bush were good Presidents then? Thought Carter was a loser? |
