The way Barack Obama introduced himself at an event makes us love him even more
No politician is perfect, but since Donald Trump took up residence of the White House, many people have come to see his predecessor in a much more favourable light – all of his predecessors, in fact – even Nixon. At an event for one of his charities, the My Brother’s Keeper Alliance, Barack Obama introduced himself in a way that reminds us of happier times.

“For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Michelle’s husband – Barack.”
Try as we might, we can’t imagine Trump doing this.
His opener has served to make people miss him more than ever.
Miss his intelligence and integrity SO MUCH.

Decent men doing their bit to make a difference. That's all we ask.

A Twitter user named Jim Cole summed up why the 45th President is less than he should be.
Oooooohhhhh we really miss you. We miss the LACK of lying.
