News and information about President Barack Obama

Some guidelines:

-Please message the moderators with a permalink to the comment section of any submissions that don't appear in the new queue.

-Please do not use this subreddit as a catch-all category for submissions that are critical of actions of the federal government or American hegemony in general. As a rule of thumb, political stories that do not directly involve Obama as an individual should be submitted to r/politics instead.

-While we welcome debate, stories and comments that are demonstrably false (e.g., "The Muslim Obama still won't show us his birth certificate") and racist commentary (e.g., "His black ass has been living on welfare ever since he moved into the Whitehouse") will be removed, and are grounds for an instant ban.

Please message the moderators with reports of infractions, and include a permalink to the post. Your reason for filing a report should be stated in the message. It should be noted that reports are for spam, clearly irrelevant posts and demonstrable misinformation or racism; opinions rooted in fact (however unpopular they may be) should be judged by popular vote.
