like bursting into tears for what we have lost. It is so disheartening to know that people are so racist they cannot see what a genuinely nice man Obama is.

We've gone from the most intelligent, competent, caring man who did his best for the American people - to a clueless, uncaring buffoon who is only in this for attention and what he - and his family of grifters - can take. It boggles the mind and makes me feel sick and scared on a regular basis.

And prevented so much more Good that he could have done, are grinning smugly in the halls of govt while they work at all their nefarious schemes unhindered.

And people who can't see how good he is....boggles my mind too.

He confronted unprecedented obstruction at every turn - and then they have the gall to challenge his record. He could have accomplished so much more. And yet he kept his cool throughout, an amazing temperament. We've gone from "no drama Obama" to a self centered crybaby who thinks the laws of this land were created for anyone but him.

I get a stab of pain and then a heavy sadness when I see photos of this extraordinary man. I miss him so.

BEST. PRESIDENT. EVER.


And then I feel extraordinary gratitude that we had him for eight years.

All of us miss him a lot - and I agree we won't see his like again - but after all he had to put up with (especially from our own Congress! ) - he really deserves all the R&R he can get!

Class, dignity, grace, humor, steady, and I think as I look back,so very very careful with his wording, even in impromptu engagements with the public and the press. You could see his mind working while he was coming up with what to say. Now we have this, whatever it is.

Peace
