Fill in the blank:

Barack Obama is the \_\_\_\_\_ President, ever.

I’m not really a fan of Obama these days, but I would say:

“funniest”  
“most self-aware”  
“coolest”

Just look at this…

Feel free to write in mean things as well.

I’m not going to do your cloze exam, but that was a cool video. I’m willing to add 5 points to my coolness assessment of Boehner too. That with his previous total, and the 12 point for calling Cruz a miserable SOB gives him a new total of, well … 17. But he’s moving on up!

“most ironic”

Take it to mean what you will. I think he’d make a great Saturday Night Life host, or substitute for Steven Cobert.

At first I thought “cold-blooded”, but LBJ wins that hands-down. I think “most unflappable”, and Congress really tried to flap him.

I did not vote for him or McCain/Romney.

He’s one of the most rational Presidents. I will miss that.

😛 on the Boehner thing.

Clinton’s leaving office video was better. And Bill Gates had a pretty good one when he retired.
