What did Obama do for the minority community within the 🇺🇸?
I can be positively sure that he did more for them then the Trump is doing or has done or will do
HOW TO DO JUSTLY , AND TO LOVE MERCY AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH THY GOD … ..ahoo !
Kto tu rozpráva že sme v demokracii keď žiadna demokracia nikdy ne existovala a ani nikdy nebola žijeme stále v totalite
BARACK HOSEIN OBAMA WILL PROBABLY GO DOWN INHISTORY AS THE WORSE PRESIDENT OF AMERICA WHO SAID THOSE WORDS ????? PRESIDENT OBAMA BELIEVE IT OR NOT .,;:
Worst President in the USA. at the funeral of a real POS. Lewis never gave back to the community that picked him up and made him rich. IM SURE LEWIS AND CUMMINGS ARE LOOKING UP WISHING OBAMA WOUKD JOIN THEM.
REST IN PEACE REP. JOHN LEWIS.YOU HEARD THE CALL, YOU’VE CARRIED THE TORCH, YET THE FIRE STILL BURNS.
more than 400 years and still we cant even give everyone in america equal threatment
God bless John Lewis.
Magnificent speech President Obama!

Don’t be fooled, but this Eulogy was more of a pseudo-DNC speech that he was giving for his support for Sleepy Joe. Make no mistake, just wait how this is all politicized by the Establishment politicians, including Dubya as well, all in their concerted effort to oust our Democratically Elected Commander in Chief, the 45th President of the United States of America – Donald J Trump.
Try as they might, they can’t oust him. Would they have handled Covid in a better way? I doubt! The economy? I doubt! The protests? They would be loved them! Traitors as they’ve always been, the Dems are going to face another blow, harder than the one that they received 4 Yrs ago, and the real American hero – Trump, will be elected again! Semper Fi!#Trump2020
We not fool, Sleepy Joe can be a comma, he will still get my vote before President Treasonous Trash with his ignorance, divisive rhetoric, greed. Racists and trifling behind. He can’t defeat God or this plague
Obama STOP INSTIGATING HATE TO YOUR FOLLOWERS. PEACE BECAUSE WE ALL LOVE THIS NATION.
Time for “operation orange peel “ remove him
If you’re talking about removing the Trump I agree
@Edwina Byrd No you fool, Trump is a patriot, Obama a crooked spy.
obama has hidden agenda
It’s not hidden. Let’s get rid of the trash
And I’m so glad he does
My man, my President! Thank you for a succinct message to the American people and a beautiful send-off to our hero, Mr. John Lewis!
This is the man trump fears will help Biden WIN
And I pray to our God above that someone will remove the Trump
Check out John Lewis’s essay in New York Times on how the death of Emmett Till’s brutal murder angered and motivated him to fight for respect and equality‼️🇺🇸💙RIP Mr. Lewis‼️💙
Good Trouble RIH Brother John
Mr Obama has aged so much, he needs to eat a little more and take his vitamins.
As we listen to Obama’s trademark rousing oratory we should remember that he launched drone strike on thousands of civilians in other countries, put immigrants in cages, bailed out banking corporations that stole millions from people and invaded 7 sovereign countries.
Even Obama is quoting Scripture, ‘And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be…’ Revelation 22:12,20
for 3.8 BILLION years ,every Life has been SHORT but EVERY GOOD DEED has been FOREVER. We did not invent our alphabets languages, nations invisible borders and religions,. those were THEM, NOT US. Only what WE DO is who we will FOREVER BE. , Life has been DOINGS, NOT BEINGS.. Jon Lewis trusted his eyes and mind and has blessed GOD’s evolving creation with his short time here in God’s reality. EVERY Life was SHORT,. DEEDS FOREVER. John Lewis will never die.
Obama said “twennyfoo”. Is it just me or is he embracing his African American side a bit more these days before Election Day?
Oh wow. Obama looks so old now
The real president speaking facts during this funeral like a true leader has some of you SEETHING WITH RAGE IN THESE COMMENTS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 we love to see it. Meanwhile your boy 45 wants to get the election pushed back and is crying about not being loved. And you sheep keep wanting to go outside and to the beach and his rallies maskless hollering about masks being uNcOnStITuTIoNaL and cry later when your test results come back positive. Let Darwinism take y’all out. Keep trashing Obama and looking up to the fool who doesn’t even care about your lives 😂🤣😂🤣😂💯
Obama should really stop smoking. He looks awful. And exhausted. His experience as President has clearly wounded his pysche…guilt and shame have sucked his soul dry.
I miss this man so much. Setting the bar for what it means to be president.
The Democrat party is the statue of slavey tear it down.
Some people claim that freeing the slaves, and, a century later, passing the Civil Rights Act, were things done for the benefit of African-Americans. BUT, make no mistake, these GREAT THINGS were done for ALL AMERICANS — so, that WE THE PEOPLE could finally and fully LIVE-UP to the PROMISE of the ALWAYS GREAT NATION that WE WERE MEANT TO BE from its beginning !
lolololol the scum bag talking to give free food stamps and free phones
Can’t wait to see all the tears come November! It’s gonna be so great to watch all these people’s brains implode when they realize how big the silent majority really is. Just one debate is all we need. Just watch as Biden gets dropped off at the retirement home afterwards! Lol
President Obama gave one of the best eulogies at a funeral I have ever heard.
This right here
uppity black that lived off the government
Is Obama should be running again?
I was glad to see all the LIVING and IMPORTANT Presidents were in attendance to CELEBRATE the LIFE & HEROISM of the AMERICAN PATRIOT John Lewis !
Obama was a destructive force for america, driving division through racism
John Lewis was a Great Man , rest his soul . Our past President , at one time was fueling the fire , and Mr Lewis probably didn’t like it , Our country is hurting . democrats are no longer democratic . i’m not going to type five paragraphs , all I’m going to say , God Family Country . Our Fathers Mothers Daughters Brothers Sons , have died in many Wars , For this country to be United , Sorry , The Democrat Party is Fooling us all .

Thank you for the impassioned history lesson. I never knew John, you’re a good man and a leader of character. I hope your life’s efforts bear fruit beyond expectation. RIP
Election Day should be a Federal Holiday. It is a no-brainer.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA! THE VERY DEFINITION OF INTEGRITY, LEADERSHIP, COMPASSION, CARE, AND FITS A PRESIDENT LIKE NO ONE ELSE!!!! WE SALUTE YOU ETERNALLY!!!
Preach Reverend Obama! This country needs you because the USA has lost its luster.
Obama was the most corrupt and sleaziest politician in US history.
One word, TREASON!!
Awesome speech Obama you would’ve blew UNM-G Communications class away. John Lewis and Obama help make America Great.
BIGGEST pos TO WALK THIS EARTH AND LIAR ALSO AND HIS PERVERTED FRIENDS ALSO LIKE THE CLINTONS WHICH WILL BE GOING TO PRISON VERY SOON
😣💐💐🕊️🎉💋💯🍏
We born with sin we die with sin matherlutherking jr
Obama the wimp. He didn’t do anything when he had the Ferguson, Missouri riots. Today BLM wasn’t around, it would have been nice to see what he would have done, nothing.
No wonder Trump suffers from inferiority complex.
I wish you could run a few more terms. You are the best president ever.
Obama sucks. Corruption former President in U.S History.
Mr Obama .you were not good President of the U.S ever.
Bull craps Obama.
Barack Obama failed to do anything for the African American community for 8 whole years. Sadly John Lewis did more in one day than Barack did in 2 terms. RIP sir..
Man i wish u were president again this yellow guys has us in a mess the White House. Is a mess i miss u Mr President Obama
A great speech for a great human being from a great president. Listening to Obama makes you understand why Trump is so jealous about him.
thank you, President Obama, for reminding us
that we all owe a great debt to John Lewis .
What a difference! #presidentialspeech
Obama is a homosexual. He’s scared of the military
Obama doesn’t like black people
I have a dream!!!
What a mockery. God have mercy.
Desecrates Memory of Lewis by going full partisan political speech. How disrespectful!
President Barack Obama speak from his heart ,even his speech is being prepared by speech writer. Thank you ,President Obama for honoring Rep. John Lewis a good man who serve our country.
President Obama you did a great job. R.I.Paradise John Lewis a fighter for equality.
I’m gonna tell my baby daughter he was the president when she was born.
More power to President Obama … you are being missed every second
Now THIS is a President
What a great sermon by a great man for a great man.
Why aren’t there more than 514k views and only 2k comments? There should be 51.4 million views and 2 million comments.
We are living in a very historically significant time. There are going to be many heroes who need to be remembered. President Obama and John Lewis are at the top of the list.
Marching and begging a FAKE government for anything I PASS.
I don’t think he deserved to speak in that podium, unless he repent his lies….,
All the power of this beautiful eulogy would have been taken away if former president Obama had worn a mask during this speech. thank ya Obama and John Lewis for being a credit to our race and our country.
We Love you John ♥️🙏
We Love you President Obama ❤️
Trump not here to pay respects just shows what he cares about.
Thank you John Lewis for your fight for equality and thank you President Obama for all you have done for America especially your Obamacare and Medicaid. My relatives are nurses in America and they have seen how it has helped thousands in need 🙏 God Bless you More🙏 Americans Vote Wisely !!!
Barack Obama talking about a bible lines in the beginning of the speech. ? He is a hypocrite!!!!!!!!
So miss hearing President Obama. Refreshing to hear President Obama speak so eloquently! He is what reminds us what a real president should sound like!
i regret moving to America: https://youtu.be/5GEkdPr9Gu0
Thank you sir. You made my day. Rumors about you are a distraction from your truth. You made the black family trend. You are a encouragement to every black male wanting to become great.
Isn’t it great that this clown lying con man Obama is out of public office.
How can people love someone so ill-equipped to be President, thank God this con man has been replaced. All he is good for is reading something someone else wrote…good riddance con man…jail is coming to you.
Barack Obama…We All LOVE YOU MAN!! Such A Gift to The United States of America ;] Your Compass is Always,Always Pointed Toward Truth. Eloquent and So Fascinatingly Smart…You are Beautiful…One of The Grreatest Presidents Ever!! Shine Your Light…Let it Shimmer into the Hearts of all Who Hear you. Let Them All Feel the Need to Live by your example…Let ignorance, intolerance & Hatred Fall Away…We Shall Not Harbour the Shallow, Inhuman Void. John Lewis was an American Warrior for Truth, Equality & The Common Right to Have Civil Rights. John Lewis should have A Statue of Him in Washington. Let Future Generations See His Righteous Fight for Justice Boldly in his image. I seen The ‘FREEDOM RIDES’ Documentary 25 Times…I Cannot Believe that Hatred & Injusted existed at that Level…Heart Breaking…That Documentary Should be taught in all the Grade Schools. We All send ya A Grreat BIG HUGG BORACK…GOD BLESS YOU!! John Lewis is Reuniting with All those Brave Souls who Lost their Lives to Make America what it Needs to be…WHOLE…’E PLURIBUS UNUM’
Barack Obama President

Children , it is time to act like it and love each other. Peace and Love now.
I am curious “What is the value of Lewis’ Estate” ? Than I can decide if he helped us or himself.
Obama trashing Trump on a funeral is the biggest disgrace ever!!! TRUMP 2020
John Lewis was a “Warrior!!…We are in the fight of our lives this November, the republicans are gonna crawl out from under their rocks real early. They are gonna cheat in everyway possible!! they lie every single day and show no desire to ever stop!..Trump wants to be a dictator like his crooked, corrupt friend puttin!..4 more yrs of trump??..We will be asking to go to the “TOILET!!…We can’t let this happen!!
My gosh Obama can hold an audience, what a beautiful speaker he is. It’s like chalk and cheese listening to Obama and trying to ignore tRump. We miss you President Obama, you made America great, not like it is now, tRump is an embarrassment to America, he is a joke. Vote everyone vote.
