So what is the media supposed to do? Ignore his shenanigans? It's this kind of thinking that made people vote for a reprobate - it's the media, media, media. Are the media making up things about him? Didn't the media report errors made by Obama and Hillary? I doubt anyone wants you to buy any "narrative", but if you want to know whether Obama is a better person, why not learn something about both men?

1) He committed and fulfill his promise on those wars. You really think Obama is responsible for the events in the middle east grin


Majority of those issues in the middle east have been going on forever.

1) The issue of Israel and Palestine
2) The war between Sunni shite ( typified by the battle btw sadam usian and iran in the past)( now the battles in Syria and Yemen)
3) The proxy wars between Saudi Arabia and iran

All these issues already exists before Obama.

in Africa

1) alqayida in the magreb (North Africa)

2) Alshibab in Somalia

3) Even yusuf was already preaching his boko haram message in north Nigeria before Obama became president.

Hahaha, You don't know Hamas called for a new holy war against united state and western interest just last week.

Even Islamic state use trumps campaign videos where he called for the total ban of Muslim to recruit new members grin

what did Obama do

1) He called for no fly zone over Libya

2) He called for assad to resign and supported proxies against him. Mind you the same thing trump is doing

I honestly don't think it will be fair to engage a person who thinks Trump is like Hitler a honest discussion. Hitler. What do you know about the Fuhrer of the Third Reich? You know how many people he killed every single day in Warsaw, Poland? You know how many million Jews died in the Holocaust? You know how he rose from an ordinary voter to the Fuhrer of Germany?

Are you comparing Obama's eight years in office to trumps less than one year in office

let me remind what happened in Obama's one year in office

He committed to ending the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, The rouge wars that only led to death of millions in the middle east. A lot of American soldiers lost their lives in those wars

He committed to signing a new trade agreement with African countries, which most American president always overlook. He signed the deal later in his presidency.


He set a new tone for the middle east peace agreement that quashed likes of hamas, hezbalah and iran's propaganda against America. Sadly, trump has given those extremists group a voice again through his actions.


He won a nobel prize for peace because of all those good deeds.
Nobel Prize For Peace? I could still recall his attempt in establishing peace in the first two years leading to that prize. But then we never knew he was like Janus. A human head and a lion head in one trunk. Those are not enough. I'm not here to nail Obama or to criticise him but to put issues in proper perspective.

He committed...He committed...But what then? What did he do? Who created instability in Africa and the Arab world by trying to purge Libya of despotism? What was his role in making peace in Libya after all the committing? Trade deals are still happening and I could recall how he helped in making sure our oil never gets into America. I wonder what Trade Deal means from that point.

Set the tone in the Middle East? And we have ISIS today in Libya, Syria, Afghan, Iraq and Bahrain? You mean this tone that led to the movement of Migrants from the Christians populated Aleppo city of Syria to Europe? How was ISIS formed? How do you train a people to support a course and dismantle them later? Are we stupid not to know that a Soldier trained must not be disposed in such trashy way?

Obi1kenobi:
Is this stuff for real? To say Obama initiated the "murder" of people because of one man is nonsense. By that assessment, 400,000 people are dead in Syria because of one man. Gadhaffi's people rebelled against him and he was about to carry out a mass-murdering purge before he was removed. Whether this was the logical strategic choice, or whether it violated international law of sovereignty is up for debate, but the morality of the action wasn't. Libya turning into a disaster reflects the complexities of geopolitical puzzles and had nothing to do with Obama's morality.

And Obama's administration had nothing to do with the refusal to sell arms to African nations. It was a congressional decision spearheaded by a Senator, Patrick Leahy.
So who do we blame for the killing of Gaddafi? Who was in charge of NATO that gave support to the rebels who till day have made the country a joke? Who tried to replicate the Libyan example in Syria with rebels, but failed because of Russian interference? Congress? The President doesn't have Veto Power anymore for the greater good? Who lobbied congress? Why hasn't Congress, using the Leah law, caused the cessation of arms sales and gifts to rebels in Syria? I'd have gone as far as asking who created ISIS but that can easily be dismissed for conspiracy theory.

Trump with his impulsive mouth and shock policies is just getting started. You can't compare Trump's one year tenure to Obama's eight year stint and call yourself being objective.
True, that's not a fair comparison but saying he's worse than Hitler is also a premature and erroneous comparison. Hitler murdered Jews in their millions and showed, with actions not words, that he wanted the race over. Has Trump done so? On the Obama line, my argument was based on the moment. My point is that the world is crazy and biased. If we want this man lynched for uttering just opinions, why do we glorify the men who actually killed? Is that fair?
PoliticsRe: Fani-kayode Blasts New York Times Over Trump's "Comment" About Nigerians by Sapiosexuality(m): 12:26pm On Dec 24, 2017
Obi1kenobi:
US Presidents are slaves to the foreign policy doctrine of world leadership and policing. It doesn't obviate their fundamental decency. Bush and Obama ordered soldiers who killed people but they were fundamentally decent people as family men and examples you want your sons to aspire to. Obama was criticized for intervening in Libya to remove Gaddhafi and also criticized for failing to act in Syria to remove Assad as their civil war spiraled out of control. You can't have it both ways. Donald Trump's pathologies as a failed human are too many to enumerate. To say that Obama is not a better person than him is ridiculous.
So, can we weigh their actions objectively to see whose is first on the demonic scale? Let's do it.
I hate doing this.

Being a slave is a poor argument that can also be used to defend Trump's arrogance and stupidity so far. Yes, you are controlled by the Bloodlines but your actions and whatever happens in your tenure is seen as your responsibility. That's the basis of your reelection or assessment.

So how do we compare the two? One sees women as tools, the other sees women as gold. One didn't initiate the murder of women and children because of one man but the other did. One hates black people and doesn't hide it the other doesn't but he couldn't help black people in Africa conquer terrorism and tacitly aided terrorists. How can Obama even come out on top in any real assessment?

Except we are trying to access their character before getting into government. That's the only way Obama can appear better on the moral scale.

"""fake news alert, fake news""" undecided
But that's true. I'm not defending any of them but trying to weigh their crimes objectively. Let's weigh their crimes on a scale and see whose weigh more.

Who destroyed Libya and what was the result today?
Who destroyed Syria and what do we have today?
Who tacitly helped Boko Haram and where are we today?
Who tried forcing homosexuality on Africans and used it as a war tool?

What do I weigh these crimes with and it would come out better? Trump's foul mouth and crude behaviour? His insult to women and black people? Both are bad but the former can never appear above on a moral scale in a morality class.

Except when he spends all his time whining about the media.

And it takes an abysmal judge of character and basic human decency to say Obama is not a better person than Trump.
That's how it seems. Obama destroyed Libya, Syria, ordered soldiers who destroyed many families and homes, tried to force homosexuality in Africa, aided Boko Haram tacitly but because he is more diplomatic, he's seen as better as the foul mouthed Trump. At the lay level, it seems he's a better person but he's not. The difference between Obama and Trump is that Trump is a wolf in wolf's clothing while Obama is a Wolf in Sheep's clothing.

If you get poetry you will get him. The bard was a master in that field and used it to communicate meanings. Just try writing ten lines of Iambic Tetrameters and tell how long it took you. Rhythm was his thing. I don't think he's overrated, I only think he's projected as the peak of literary writing. I don't think there's a peak.

The major and most widely accepted conspiracy theory was that his plays were originally written by the great British Philosopher Francis Bacon. If you are not familiar with Francis Bacon, then you need to do a quick research on him.

You may want to Google Amelia Bassano Lanier.
I think it's purely a confusion of metaphor for denotative language. I think when Shakespeare spoke of the Dark Lady in his Sonnets, that is, the beggetter of his poems, it was confused for a black skin lady.

After making a little research, these are my findings. First, she's not white but a Jewish, and she's not dark either. She's a writer too with similar writing content, not style, as W.S. She is the first woman to write something in England. She's a feminist, a stage performer and teacher.

https://www.snopes.com/amelia-bassano-william-shakespeare/

https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/john-hudson/shakespeares-dark-lady-amelia-bassano-lanier/

My inference. If she was black she wouldn't have been allowed to publish a book in the England of that time. If she was black she wouldn't be allowed into the schools to teach anyone or on stage to address any audience. Even Michael Jackson, in the 80s, had to change skin colour.

I think the confusion comes from the fact that she's not 'so white'. She's not white and her colour was a bit tanned like that of Barack Obama. More like the face of the Singer Jennifer Lopez. The name W.S could have been anything, but left to me, if there's anyone that fits the profile, it is that muse, agnostic and nonconformist, Christopher Marlowe. It is not Amelia Bassano Lanier.

Yes black woman. Saw the documentary on the history channel
Those are conspiracy theories. No one knows for sure. He was unknown when Marlowe ruled and after that his disappearance(Marlowe was hit with a bottle in a beer parlour. That was the story put out) W.S surfaced.

But a black woman? I don't think so. And considering the time, it stripes the narrative of credence. What is a black woman doing in England in the 16th century? Then, slavery has not happened and even if it is happening, when did she master meters and trochaic to that extent when it was a crime to even give a black person an education?

Yeah. Their were crackers. When Black people kept white slaves we intermixed but that was over 30 centuries. It wasn't just some five century ago. The story doesn't have any base to stand on. On maybe I'm making an argument without understanding what was said or presented. Tell me, what exactly was the argument? How did they link it?

There's a belief that some of his best works we're written by a black woman, and he put his name as the writer. The man didn't have good education
Black woman? Or Christopher Marlowe? I'm surprised there's a record of the muse getting married at 18. For all we know, his works became popular after Marlowe died. When you read Dr Faustus it has all the attributes of a Shakespeare novel. Occult. Mystery. Devil. Meters. Etc. It's a conspiracy theory but it seems valid.

Because he wrote like Marlowe, in Iambic Pentameters and smart trochaic, because Marlowe was rumoured to have worked with the secret service, because nothing was known about W.S before the time, it is not entirely preposterous to pursue the conspiracy theory that Marlowe is W.S.
