YUCK: Obama says he would like to create one million Barack Obamas

In a speech promoting his Obama Foundation Barack Obama claimed he would love to create a million young Obamas.

The Hill:

Former President Obama said on Sunday that he would like to create “a million young Barack Obamas” to run the next stage in the “relay race that is human progress,” the Washington Examiner reported.

Obama reportedly made the comment at a conference in Japan while discussing the Obama Foundation’s work to help young people around the world get connected using the internet.

“If I could do that effectively, then — you know — I would create a hundred or a thousand or a million young Barack Obamas or Michelle Obamas,” Obama said. “Or, the next group of people who could take that baton in that relay race that is human progress.”

The former president touted the potential that young people have to create change, citing the survivors of the Florida high school shooting who organized Saturday’s “March for Our Lives” rally for gun reform, according to the news outlet.

He also said that a lot of today’s problems are “caused by old men.”

One million Obamas would make every American event very strenuous. Considering Obama always has injected himself into every major event we would likely see one million Obamas tripping over each other to insert themselves back into the public discussion.
