Yep ... The Obama's are ready to go home. That's my opinion. And I think it shows too! Why?
Let's face it, while some don't like to hear it, BHO loves the limelight, but HATES the work. I absolutely believe he came into Office believing that people, including most Congressmen and Senators, would just fall at his feet with everything he wanted to do. And that not only didn't happen, but he was fought every step of the way. That's really hard on a narcissist.
Another thing. He made it do the highest office in the land, and arguably in the world, and what else does he need to prove? While there are other things he would "like" to do, I don't think the "work" to get them done, or fight for, is in him.
He and Michelle, can take the girls and move back (?) to Hawaii. They can buy or build a mansion suitable to what they could see themselves in as King and Queen Obama; they could watch as his library was built; and he could enjoy all the world-wide accolades as he hits the speaking tour. He could openly enjoy all the "fun" of his celebrity status, and hobnob with all the Hollywood types, and have NONE of the daily pressures to BE President.
Obama LOVES the limelight. Obama LOVES Hollywood and that elite. Obama LOVES the celebrity. Obama HATES the "work" of being the President! (If everyone fell at his feet, it wouldn't be work, and THAT is what he expected.)
The Obama's will be the most smiliest of "former" Presidents as he leaves office. And we'll be seeing him in all the best places for such celebrities. His Presidential Library will be his, his portrait will forever be in The White House, next to all the prior Presidents, and his name will forever be in the history books. No one can take those things away. BHO has all he could want, personally. His ego and narcissism will be forever fed with his Presidential experience. So he's done. And he's ready to go home.
Hollywood, and all BHO's followers can dump all the money they want into the campaign, but I bet BHO will half-heartily go for the second term, and that's only because it's expected by the DNC and his followers. If it were up to him, he'd move today!
By the way - Speaking of Hawaii, and the Presidential Library - To me, this is PROOF he really doesn't care about the Blacks in American who helped him into The White House. Otherwise, Chicago would be THE site for the library. Chicago would be a relatively easy commute for Blacks to take, to be able to see it. In fact, I think it could well be the most visited library in Presidential history. But for BHO, the library isn't about "the (his) people". It's about him. So having the library in Hawaii, some 4,200 miles away from Chicago, crossing part of the Pacific Ocean, is hardly a trek most Blacks, especially the UNEMPLOYED Blacks, can make to see BHO's library! The Obama's have not lived in Hawaii, and have not "made their bones" in any place other than Chicago. Personally, I'd be happy with having his library as far away from me as possible!
Anyway, donors to BHO's reelection campaign - Go ahead. Donate your money. To the wealthy who support him, all the better you dump your dollars on that endeavor. I'd as soon see your money go to that wasted to that cause, than on it spent on something that could actually cause me worry.
