The words Lewis left were a political statement...he wanted to go out as a public servant, Obama made sure that was possible.

Obama used Lewis' death as a political football. Pathetic and low class.

You're just jealous that once again, Trump looks like the truest ass of all.

And here you go again...making it about me. Equally pathetic and low class.

Go figure...

It was a great and appropriate eulogy

It wasn't a eulogy. It was a campaign speech.

Low class, pathetic and shameful.

Typical Obama oratory. Too craven to be honest.

Anyway, leave it to Obama to turn a funeral into a political statement. No class.

You think John Lewis would be disappointed?

Of course not. He was a good swamp dweller.
 
Re: Obama eulogizes John Lewis: He "brought this country a little bit closer to our highest ideals"

Obama is a decent person. Trump is not.


No big mystery going on.

None. What makes you think he's running for anything?

I would normally agree that you would recognize "pathetic and low class", as you are master of the subject, but this time, you are off the mark.

I respect your opinion. Good to know. I voted for him back in the day.

However, Obama isn't running for office, Biden is.

I have never seen a presidential candidate hide from the public more than whoever you all have running this year.

I've never been a big fan of President Obama, but I listened to his eulogy for John Lewis today, just incredible and an illustration of how far the office has declined in three plus years. Beyond his praise for Lewis, Trump supporters should listen to how he turned this from a eulogy to a political statement to get the left out to vote. Without mentioning any names, Obama destroyed the current administration, it was masterful.

All Trump had to do to prevent it was show up like GW, Clinton and Obama but he couldn't get out of the way of his own ego, sad. If he indeed does lose in November he and his little supporters should look back at this day.

Such a treat to see what it's like to have a mature president and an inspirational leader.

Everything Obama said was truthful and to the heart. He honored Lewis, was pointed, sharp and cutting. He underscored the current issues’ parallels to issues of the past.

You just don’t like that he took down Trump and the GOP’s effort to undermine elections without even mentioning his name.

If Biden doesn't start getting out there and showing the American public who their choice is, he should be disqualified from running for President.

Obama is not a candidate for president. You all are pulling a bait-and-switch. You're trying to fool the public into thinking Biden is Obama, and he's not.

There was more "swamp" at that funeral today than in the entire state of Louisiana.

What could piss off White Supremacists more than the first black president eulogizing a black civil rights man from the South?

No, we should have a constitutional amendment lol.

For real, why are you people hiding your candidate? Why are you fooling the American voters into thinking they're getting Obama 2.0?

You're right, Biden must have been pissed off.

Obama was the first clean, articulate African-American he'd ever met.

What if you ordered tickets for a vacation in Hawaii online, you boarded the plane, and ended up in Alaska.

How would you feel?

This is how the American public would feel if Biden took office, and they heard him speak for the first time.
