Now it’s just getting weird about the GOP. They claimed Obama brought disrepute down on the the United States during his time in office. So what are they going to say about this CNN report? That it’s fake news? That’ll be very weak tea:
Could France elect Barack Obama president? Not really — but that’s not stopping the organizers of Obama17, a guerrilla campaign trying to entice the former U.S. president to head to Paris.
“It’s totally crazy, but the cool thing is that once you get past that, you start thinking that maybe it’s possible. Who cares that he’s not French? He’s Barack Obama,” one of the campaign organizers told CNN.
They’ve launched a website and they put up 500 posters of Obama around Paris last weekend, said the organizer. He asked to be identified only as Antoine.
They’re hoping to get 1 million people to sign a petition urging Obama to run.
Sure, it won’t happen – but the organizers said he was the closest thing to a candidate that they could stomach. Along with that, he’s seen as a proven, effective leader.
So much for the world despising us when Obama was in power.
But can you imagine the conversation in the Obama kitchen? “Honey, I just had a job offer ….”
“NO!”
