Obama: An Intimate
Portrait by Pete Souza review – a people’s man at work, rest and play
A record of Barack
Obama’s eight years in office by the official White House photographer reminds
us of what we are missing in the age of Trump
"a people’s man at
work, rest and play"
I'm sorry, I find this revolting.
A people's man?
A people's man who dropped bombs every single day of his
administration?
A People's man who created the world's first
industrial-scale scheme for making people disappear?
A people's man who killed at the very least 500,000 people
in the Middle East?
A people's man who created several million refugees and
nearly destabilized Europe?
A people's man who never did a thing of consequence for his
own people in America?
