    He got elected because he is black.  That may win votes but it does not run a country.

    Obama was consistently shafted by republicans in Congress who have done nothing but run a brick wall up infront of any semblance of progress he hoped to attain. Hours of filibustering, refusals to accept anything he put through congress. They're a farcical limb of US politics who do nothing but damage.

    Sure would be nice if the BBC could afford some audio/visual engineers so they can properly lay a sound track on video.

    The American government is long since bought and paid for by corporate interests.  No president has the ability to run the country anymore.  You can blame it on Obama but I suspect the next president will have the same problem.  The new role of the government is not to represent the people but to get them to accept what the 1% wants.  That is the main problem and it's one that is not going to be easily changed.

    "Yes we can" will be remembered as a meaningless advertising slogan from a useless, empty suit. Why would anyone expect anything from him? He was never anything more than a brand.

    Obama will say what politicians usually say "everything is getting better! please don't question our sovereignty"

Published

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.

Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.

President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Donald Trump scraps threat of 20% fee on Strait of Hormuz cargo | BBC News

Published

President Donald Trump has reversed his threat of a 20% fee on all Strait of Hormuz cargo shipping, as the US battles to break Iran’s hold on the waterway.

He said the toll would be replaced by trade and investment deals with Gulf states, just hours before the US resumes a blockade of Iranian ports.

It follows renewed strikes between the US and Iran, which triggered a sharp rise in oil prices as tanker traffic through the Strait has virtually stalled.
