        And when Ezra Klein gushed about Obama in The American Prospect that,
        "He is not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of word over flesh, over color, over despair. The other great leaders I’ve heard guide us towards a better politics, but Obama is, at his best, able to call us back to our highest selves, to the place where America exists as a glittering ideal, and where we, its honored inhabitants, seem capable of achieving it, and thus of sharing in its meaning and transcendence.

        And of course there's when Mark Morford, columnist and culture critic for the San Francisco Chronicle and SFGate.com, proclaimed that Obama "isn’t really one of us" and how
        "many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you, but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to reason or emotion, but to the soul."

        And let's not forget Barbara Walters




        The fact is, the above exemplified the attitude that a substantial portion of his supporters believed. As Michelle Obama put it, "We have an amazing story to tell. This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light" (Matthew 4:16; cf. Micah 7:8)

            Typical liberals working in overdrive trying to "prove" how un-racist they are.
            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    Don't forget France. He outright came out and endorsed Macron.

                      Issuing a statement regarding the legitimacy of the electoral process is far from trying to push Putin out of power. You guys are really reaching!

                          really? a sitting President telling the French people who to vote for? If Putin ran ads on American TV endorsing Trump, you liberals would be apoplectic. The whole liberal narrative is that Russians influenced the election using sneaky ads on facebook and such. Here you have an actual President coming right out in the open to influence an election!

                          JimL your disingenuous and ignorant objections are a constant source of amusement.

                            And, of course, there were Obama's undisguised attempts to run Israel president Benjamin Netanyahu out of office:

                            Source: Washington Times

                            The State Department paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayers grants to an Israeli group that used the money to build a campaign to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in last year’s Israeli parliamentary elections, a congressional investigation concluded Tuesday.

                            Some $350,000 was sent to OneVoice, ostensibly to support the group’s efforts to back Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement negotiations. But OneVoice used the money to build a voter database, train activists and hire a political consulting firm with ties to President Obama’s campaign — all of which set the stage for an anti-Netanyahu campaign, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations said in a bipartisan staff report.

                            Source: Breitbart

                            ...a team of up to five Obama campaign operatives has reportedly arrived in Israel to lead a campaign to defeat the Israeli Prime Minister in upcoming national elections scheduled for March 17.

                            The anti-Netanyahu, left wing Israeli newspaper Haaretz reports a group called “One Voice,” reportedly funded by American donors, is paying for the Obama campaign team. That group is reportedly being led by Obama’s 2012 field director Jeremy Bird.

                              It's Time magazine, that well-noted conservative... Oh, wait.... that's doing the reaching.

                              And your buddy Tassman is the one who brought these up as reasons for Putin's Hillary hate.

                              Nice own goal, Jim.

                                We're not talking about endorsing, Putin could've endorsed Trump all he wanted, I would have welcomed it. Then maybe you lunkheads would've taken notice. And I guess you forgot, Russia is an adversary of the U.S., France is an ally.
