No matter what, this man, will always remain peoples’ president, and my vote will forever be for Barack Obama. His tenure of eight years as the POTUS was full of achievements for himself and his people. The way people admire Barack Obama as a leader is something unique. And the reason is, such gem of a leader are indeed rare and difficult to find.
Meanwhile we were busy to find resolutions for 2018, the man had few leanings from last year.
