    barack delivers a powerful and completely unbiased speech...and yall still hate him. he litterally spends an hour describing how we need to come together for the greater good despite our differences....and yall still hate him. im not suprised tho...its been this way since his first day in office...its been this way since he brought 95 percent of our troops home...its been this way since he and other actively improved a dying economy...its been this way despite peace and physical health being at an all time high in america since he began his 2nd term...and i would say its because he's black, or because he's educated and articulate...because for some reason that makes you a target for hate to the average american ...but i wont. i will simply say that 20 years from now the same americans who spat on him...will sit in awe of how much they disrespected one of the greatest leaders in american history.
  • Love him or hate him, you got to admit the guy never gave in to cynicism. He always stayed positive.
  • I come back to these speeches to get a reminder on what sanity is. And to restore mine to.

    I am so privileged that I grew up under Obama. He's the first president that I remember and he shaped my life and the way I think in such an incredible way. Even though I am disapointed due to the current election results, I'll take his hope and optimism and Michelle's class and wisdom into the possibly dark next 4 years. I have nothing but love for this family
  • Everyone, just stop spreading hate. Come on. Whatever your beliefs are, it doesn't change to fact that we are one country. Whether you like Obama or not, you have to respect him as a person. I certainly do. Just think before you speak, and think about what it will do in a YouTube comments section. Nothing. Just chill out.

    Who’s here after Trump’s farewell address?
  • @user-zn3xl9xf3r
    He worked really hard for America for the past 8 years. I'm not American, but I was deeply touched by his sincerity in every speech he made. He'll be greatly missed. No impeachment, no scandals, no wrongdoings. His feats will forever be remembered. Thank you Obama.
  • @realtalk7685
    Obama's been one of the best orators in this nation's history. Character, integrity and grace. He will be missed.
  • @tipp0183
    This is a hard one man, damn! It feels like a breakup that shouldn't be happening.
  • @Hancockst1
    Everything Donald Trump could never be.  God bless this man.  What a gem.
  • @haq_se_dkp
    All his speech was 'we' not 'me'. You can say he's the best President, because not just Americans, even I, an Indian, miss him.
  • @sheenabailey
    Don't go!!! Please give us two more years to get this voting thing together! We're sorry!! Well the ones who didn't vote are sorry.
  • @nnnheart
    Everybody who is complaining "oh he could do better" id like to see you try
  • @radhikajain8619
    I cried and I'm not even an American. What class! What dignity! What an amazing family the Obamas!
  • @brianr6651
    I come back to this video every time I feel hopeless and frustrated. It grounds me and restores my faith in America. May we never have a gameshow host, concerned only with his public appearance, as POTUS again. We need more politicians like Barack Obama.
  • @YouLovesChloe
    No scandals, no impeachment, no mistresses during Obama's 8 yrs. Like him or hate him he was a DAMN good president and it will be VERY difficult for our next pres to live up to Barrack Obama. Him and his family will be greatly missed 💕💕💕
  • @takeilaf1433
    Absolutely love you President Obama... Thank you for your service!
  • @Michaelartzer
    Every once and a while I go back and watch this starting from "Michelle LaVonne Robinson" and cry my heart out.
  • @sivaselva133
    I'm a Canadian and I still know how depressing it is to lose a n amazing president.
