Ill miss him too. I expect no matter how the 2016 election turns out I'll probably take the day off work on Jan.20 for a day of reflection.

This American has proudly stood by the POTUS through good times and bad and am proud of the job he's done in the face of OVERT FUCKING BIGOTRY and OBSTRUCTIONALIST GOP pigs.

Under the bus President Obama goes ... n/t SFnomad Jun 2016 #1
Most of em hated him anyway uponit7771 Jun 2016 #2
He's got great company..... Skid Rogue Jun 2016 #11
Ain't that the truth, my brother. DemocratSinceBirth Jun 2016 #26
This is unnecessary bashing. Most Bernie Sanders supporters and/or Progressives don't HATE Obama. JimDandy Jun 2016 #37
Strawman, never said "all"... nice try though uponit7771 Jun 2016 #50
Most or All--My argument did not hinge on the difference in quantity, JimDandy Jun 2016 #55
JimDandy, we agree. I am a Senator Sanders saidsimplesimon Jun 2016 #76
And never even tried to hide it. But then act shocked that the reast of us saw it and damn sure Number23 Jun 2016 #47
Yeap, they'll act like the some of the threads they rec'd into the 80s and 100s don't exist uponit7771 Jun 2016 #51
They hated him already Renew Deal Jun 2016 #6
The Bernites threw him under the bus years ago. nt Cali_Democrat Jun 2016 #7
That is not true democrattotheend Jun 2016 #91
Remember that Bernie wanted Obama to be primaried in 2012. Lord Magus Jun 2016 #98
Truer words were never spoken. Look at some of the replies below. George II Jun 2016 #63
That has been tried. President Obama broke the bus MineralMan Jun 2016 #65
No, but I am a little disappointed in him - not for the reason you might think democrattotheend Jun 2016 #90
When he was in this exact same position in 2008, it was considered the finish line SFnomad Jun 2016 #92
DC had its primary earlier in 2008 democrattotheend Jun 2016 #94
It was way too front loaded and SuperDuper Tuesday had something like 24 states in it and nearly 1/2 SFnomad Jun 2016 #95
He's pretty piped in...you think he'd know about the looming indictments BeyondGeography Jun 2016 #3
I actually got one of the BS cheerleaders to admit they were hoping for indictments ... pathetic n/t SFnomad Jun 2016 #4
Ooooooo, that man looks absolutely terrified. okasha Jun 2016 #5
Hey okasha~ you got juried.. somebody was wah wah wah.. Cha Jun 2016 #27
Yep, Sanders supporters have been banned from juries. rhett o rick Jun 2016 #35
Well Rick... zappaman Jun 2016 #45
Is that why I've been getting on 3-4 juries a day lately? bettyellen Jun 2016 #48
The reason why DesertRat Jun 2016 #66
Also because they ignored nasty personal attacks- I used to see that often and only be on juries 1-2 bettyellen Jun 2016 #74
I agree with you DesertRat Jun 2016 #77
Yeah right. That's a good rationalization. But there is no notice and no way rhett o rick Jun 2016 #75
You can believe what you like DesertRat Jun 2016 #80
"Since you believe that there is a site-wide conspiracy against Sanders supporters, I don't know why rhett o rick Jun 2016 #86
Is that a goodbye, Rick? zappaman Jun 2016 #87
Thanks, Cha. okasha Jun 2016 #36
You're welcome, buddy. Cha Jun 2016 #39
I think our Prez looks not only fearless but debonair. okasha Jun 2016 #44
Yep, too funny JimDandy Jun 2016 #82
Ooops. George II Jun 2016 #62
Shameful JimDandy Jun 2016 #84
i alerted because of the reference to "BROS' hopemountain Jun 2016 #34
Sexist? okasha Jun 2016 #38
so you decide to shove those ugly hopemountain Jun 2016 #40
I am not referring only to posts here. okasha Jun 2016 #43
Apparently 7 jurors disagreed with you. DesertRat Jun 2016 #67
That was a ridiculous alert. It breaks no rules - you can't simply hide what you don't agree with. Lil Missy Jun 2016 #54
Good to know JimDandy Jun 2016 #78
Bernie Bros is now a accepted sexist term on this site and used frequently JimDandy Jun 2016 #81
It was the Bros themselves that coined it, okasha Jun 2016 #83
The first use of the term was traced back to a Hillary Brah JimDandy Jun 2016 #85
I would report juror #2. No reason for the nasty comments! B Calm Jun 2016 #96
thank you, b calm ~ hopemountain Jun 2016 #97

Could you please post this for skink for me and address it to him. I think he has me on ignore. DemocratSinceBirth Jun 2016 #13
Has me on ignore too I suspect. nt geek tragedy Jun 2016 #14
I like this new image better... The old image had homophobic overtones, albeit unintentional. DemocratSinceBirth Jun 2016 #15
I got it for you! Maru Kitteh Jun 2016 #24
Obama is at 52% nationally. In Bernieworld/DU maybe 25% maybe lower. redstateblues Jun 2016 #17
52 is the new 60 the way our country is divided CorkySt.Clair Jun 2016 #25
yes MFM008 Jun 2016 #33
85% of Bernie supporters approve of Obama's performance geek tragedy Jun 2016 #70
I guess the other 15% are on DU redstateblues Jun 2016 #88
Or at Daily Kos or Salon.com nt geek tragedy Jun 2016 #89
That's how you respect the process. Hillary supporters take note. aikoaiko Jun 2016 #18
I'm perfectly happy to wait...until next week. brooklynite Jun 2016 #19

Yep. March 15th. Arguably March 1st. Garrett78 Jun 2016 #42
If you say so. We'll point to that date come November, then. JimDandy Jun 2016 #59
It was apparent by mid-March that Clinton would end up with more pledged delegates. Garrett78 Jun 2016 #69

THis is a clue to BS Supporters. nt BootinUp Jun 2016 #32
Obama would never have been President if they had rigged it against him jfern Jun 2016 #41
Bernie's losing because he did not pick up Obama's coalition of reliable Dems.... bettyellen Jun 2016 #49
The real reason he lost jimw81 Jun 2016 #52
He reached out, but David Brock convinced idiots that it was jfern Jun 2016 #53
The "idiots" were the ones who admitted they didn't even compete in the "southern states" were a... uponit7771 Jun 2016 #57
And accused people of using talking points the day his site launched! Brilliant. bettyellen Jun 2016 #72
Not true at all. People read his web site the day it launched and noticed bettyellen Jun 2016 #71
It's not David Brock's fault that Bernie failed to expand beyond his core constituency. -nt- Lord Magus Jun 2016 #100
A core constituency that gets 46% of the pledged delegates? Hilarious. jfern Jun 2016 #102
He didn't see the need to reach out to the black community until a week before SC. Lord Magus Jun 2016 #105
That's such utter bullshit. If anything, he spent too much time there. jfern Jun 2016 #106
+1, Weaver and Divine admitted not competing in "southern states" & Sanders lost by over 2 mil votes uponit7771 Jun 2016 #56
Really? I recall Obama facing the exact same rules that Bernie is now. Lord Magus Jun 2016 #99
Bulllshit. The party did not launder money against him in the primary. jfern Jun 2016 #101
The party did not launder money against Bernie either. Lord Magus Jun 2016 #103
It's been well documented. Denying it makes it clear you have no credibility. jfern Jun 2016 #104

The WH has handled itself well throughout this process. NCTraveler Jun 2016 #68
It's been fairly clear since March. Nonhlanhla Jun 2016 #73
Apparently he believes in math also realmirage Jun 2016 #79
If you read past the headline you'll notice that Obama didn't say that. DesMoinesDem Jun 2016 #93
Once again Pres Obama has the back of his fellow corporatist. I am shocked, simply shocked. Skwmom Jun 2016 #107
