- Bush award at 19:37 -President Obama presents 13 exceptional individuals with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Honorees include former President George H.W. Bush, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, author and poet Maya Angelou, financier Warren Buffett, and Boston Celtic great Bill Russell.
If you are watching this in 2020 and miss having a graceful gentleman as the US president, stand here :)
Oh god yes.
Oh yes, i miss the good old days When ISIS controlled 1/3 of the Middle East. When nato countries refused to pony up. When unemployment was much higher Before the pandemic. When the embassy was in televiv. When irenaean generals could get away with murder and did. When China could do whatever they want Regarding trade laws. The old nafta when American companies could pay Mexican workers $3 an hour instead of the now $16 now they have to make which may cause a middle class that after 25 years Nafta failed to do. Yes I do remember the good old days and president's made dam share the status quo was good enough.
Guess what @Paul Aspen Canada, I wish he was taking us through this pandemic crisis. Cause Trump showing his incompetence of handling a major crisis which causing a lot of people to die. Just sad
@@gilgene5803 gavin newsome praised trump. Other governors too.
Yes!!!
I stumbled across this video one day after Donald Trump was indicted a fourth time. I cried as I watched this video because it reminded me of a better time in America.
you mean the time in america when a dude was married to a tranny? Imagine all the fudge pounding going on in there? Just ask the Chef...oh wait
What a gracious, intelligent man. He has such a sense of self that he is able to admire and praise others. God bless you President Obama.
Gotta. agree, Obama was/is a decent, respectful, intelligent man of integrity, honesty And Leadership ,a kind caring man who appreciates A Loving family and many dear friends in his WH. And around the world, not self serving nor narcissistic like the current man in the White House today who never owns up to any mistakes or bad behaviors as seen with regard to Ukrane to get info on his rival Joe Biden, what sad and horrible chaotic times we've had since trump took office , and I miss Mr. Lewis immensely, God Bless u President Obama & family, every day or anytime Trump speaks or spews his disgusting hate and distain for the poor, immigrants or anyone that does not kiss his Azz or show loyalty scary crazy times, praying for anybody but Trump ❌⭕️ in 2021
SuzieQue: Absolutely nothing gracious or intelligent about being a lying, cheating, fake "president".
O give me break!!😡
Yea Obama and Nixon have much in common they spied on there political rivals and sold out this country to China I guess it's TRUE history repeats itself
@Moe Snert has trump balanced the budget? or did Bush balanced the budget? trump has ballooned the debt by trillions of dollars and destroyed the strong economy handed over to him by President Obama while overseeing the death of 100k americans and counting.
This was when we could be proud of our President.
And when the president can make a statement with a full sentences. And not say how he would have been better than each person. Jbn
This make me cry......I used to love watching Obama or any other President. Today I hate watching Trump. It's like I'm being forced to watch all his stupidities......
Thats for sure.. Who could be proud of the Doggie Dung that is in the WH today.. Going to have to fumigate it after he leaves..
You were fooled with speeches
@@southernpineadventures7260 Obama was no con man.
Folks.....And this is the reason why John McCain dying wish was to not invite Trump to his funeral. It’s call humbled respect.
Many people in the public service that have past recently all had one thing in common..Trump is not invited.
Folks !!! Traitors
@Richard G The scary part is that he is in the club and all the noise might just be misdirection. I am looking forward to seeing the political beasts blown up in Trump's storm, but after that where are you going to get your quantum dot, I think they let you choose hand or forehead:)
@Richard G lol Trump is a one percenter
yet Obama won Nobel Prize for Peace and he felt he should award a war criminal < Obama later started three wars > The things that Obama and Bush had in common]
1) both are masonic. Bush was a member of skulls and bones
2) they both slaughtered many innocent people
3) Both entrenched patriot act that denies Americans right to privacy]
4) They all declared wars based on lies etc,
5) Bush started Guantanamo Bay Prison....Obama kept it operational
Back when The sitting president respected his predecessors.
Unoriginal comment, so -6 immediately. -1 because it was politically charged, and another -1 because its controversial. So, your comment ranks a 2/10. Sorry. Better luck next time.
@@lynx7631 The fact that you think the comment was meant to be a joke speaks volumes about your state of mind. ;)
Bort McBort I meant comment*, just edited it, sorry.. also I think i’ve got an 👌 state of mind; might be wrong.
Darth Vader hey pal! If you don’t like my comment why waste your time and write a reply!
C G I’ve been doing this forever.. nothing personal
I watch these to remind me that there is a grace, beauty and dignity to America that is not forgotten in the age of Trump.
I'm from New Zealand, and I feel the same as you do.
Such a humble person.
A president who missed dearly, presenting an award to a predecessor he has great respect for, now is that being a human being!
How much empathy and class president Obama had. How could we have fallen so much with this current clown???
The best of America and what a gracious President. I miss Obama
RIP George H. W. Bush... and thanks Obama!
@Curtis Jones well aren't you just a ray of sunshine.
@Curtis Jones hell doesnt exist *dabs*
Curtis Jones - you are a sad and strange little man and you have my pity.
@@wpprodpyc9266 can we maybe leave dabbing in 2016? ... ik I'm 3 years late, but that dab was 5 years late lol
President Obama was a class act wonderful man wonderful family America still needs him.
Michelle for Vice President!
You're a good man, James Murphy 👍
President Obama still gets invited places to meet world leaders and represent America: in stark contrast to the incumbent of (what has now sadly become) the Brown House.
James Murphy America needs Obama like a hole in the head,have you ever used your little brain to think how many innocent people’s lives lost he was responsible for,but maybe you are one that believes that as long as the dead are not Americans is ok?
Varnavas Christofi The president will always be responsible for innocent deaths. He's the leader of the most powerful country in the world. Trump in one term is responsible for more innocent American deaths than 2 terms with Obama and 2 with Bush combined.
Loved George H.W. Bush! Voted for him. (Independent). Admire and deeply President Obama. ❤️
I can't express in words how much a miss a real president. Pray for this country.
Me too.
Richard G George Washington, John F. Kennedy and Ronald Regan were all failed presidents too. Right?
@Richard G You're just jealous because he was admired and respect while now we have a 3rd grader in the White House that the world laughs at. The only people that like Trump are people like him. Uneducated lying racist.
Greg Cantelli .. Trust me.. I have a 3rd grader in my house.. the imbecile in the White House is waaay worse!
@@good_teanice_house6789 just why do you think JFK was killed!!????
Who's watching this in 2019? We need a real president again like President Obama and the two Bushes. Great recipients of the Medal Of Freedom .
Calm down dude Trump win again 👍👍
@@tommyn.j3628He will not win. Americans are smarter than that. Remember Hillary won the popular vote. The stupid Electoral college made that clown win.
I could watch these over and over, Obama is such a true gentle human from the core of his soul. What a beautiful example of what a real leader is like
lol that dbag was the beginning of the end of this country
@@Penny_Wolf SHUT UP
@@Penny_Wolfhe hid how radical he really is. He’s a Marxist.
Watched just to hear a real president that speaks English in full intelligible sentences without sputtering out sentence fragments and insulting people. Been a very long 3.5 years.
Same here
I know that's right.
dennis coates ah yes when one speaks the truth your insecurities as a trump fan boy compels you to instantaneously label them as a communist. Common sense isn’t communism- although illiterate people like you may see it as the same word lol.

November 2020 we are taking our great country back again
There is a 0% chance we'll ever see Trump honoring a predecessor like this. 0%.
I know. It's disgusting and embarrassing. Mr. Obama's comment how the recipients of The Presidential Medal of Freedom, shows us who we are as a nation.
*Enter Trump...honoring Rush Limbaugh 🤦🏻♀️🤢
Very sad indeed.
You ain't never lie
He wouldn't even have a ceremony to hang Obama's portrait in the white house like tradition.
Why should he while Limbaugh and his ilk still walk the earth? /s
I pretty sure in the near future he's going to have a portrait and a medal of freedom?
Obama was such a gentleman and so gracious and intelligent . I was so proud of America when he was in office, he represented us with greatness and such amazing qualities of his own. Now we are all ashamed
Tax Man I agree completely with you,Now we are getting ready to have a war,Thanks to the clown they have in office now,What a disgrace.
yup. obama didnt care what backgrounds or political sides they were with, he recognize people everyone who helped america move forward. Bushes, Clinton, Oprah, Ellen, just to name a few. You can say what you want about Obama, love him or not but he represented us with class and dignity.
Peace On earth
Peace On earth
Peace On earth "Gracious, gentleman, intelligent, amazing qualities"...What about honesty and integrity? Without those all of the other "amazing qualities" mean nothing.
There was a time when many of us, many youths from developing countries, looked up to United States and envy your democracy and freedom. Not now with Trump. I am sorry America. You tooked a total U turn.
Sad but most definitely the truth. I pray for Joe to be the next President where we treat our citizens and the world with respect and care. I hope and pray the world will be with us now and prayers for our new leadership that will better serve America and the world. WORLD PEACE, GOD AND UNITY.
America has their own youths who can develop. You youths can develop your own countries. If we can make it so can you in your country.
The way America recognizes,appreciates and honours its heroes and heroines in all aspects of triumph, achievements and perseverance is just heartwarming!
John Hill you a president knowledgeable about the subject that you are honoring. Trump can not do that. you doing a great job will not cut it.
Shade, I suspect you are a left-wing version of the right-wing kooks who wanted to put Hillary in prison.
John Hill if
Why do they call you shade, is because you hide.
i am so happy that George H.W. Bush and Maya Angelou were presented this medal by Obama then that other person who will remain nameless.
He gave it to a Republican. That is what made Obama great, he could look past party lines
Like his predecessors
This how real presidents talks and demonstrates love to everybody
This made me cry. What a classic act Obama is. Americans need to watch this to remember what a great country it used to be before they picked a jackass to run it
the exact opposite. This video just shows how strong the deep state is!
Obama was not a jackass. He was and is a self-aggrandizing S.O.B. He gave away the Treasury to the fraudulent banks and committed indictable war crimes by Nuremberg standards. He left the White House a multi-millionaire and the country in great debt. He started nuclear arms race #2 with Russia. He did nothing effective to deal with the coming climate catastrophes. If there were any justice, he would be in a Hague prison cell with G.W.B. for company.
you;re right... he is a class act. Ignore the other jackass haters...lol
R F oh yes and let’s not forget letting Putin kill our soldiers, wishing a child sex trafficker well so she would keep her mouth shut, etc, etc. the list goes on and on!

I'm not a doctor but you should change your medication!
Miss a real President. Great President & a human being...
Obama used the black people to be a president IT is human i think you are a brainwashed idiot
@@tommyn.j3628, President Obama won the presidency because 78% of Americans voted for him. We loved him and always will love him!!
I am a Canadian and love to watch how beautiful the 2010 Medal of Honor ceremony by President Obama. He with America honored the people who honestly deserved it and did not make it political.
President Obama is so full of humanity. We need more of him in this world.
So classy. The contrast to Trump is incredible.
Wonderful
I have been and still is critical to the USA. To see this ceremony reminds me and hopefully many others why we have found women and men that are larger then life in USA and givs people in the whole world inspiration in their service the good of all! Given by president Obama with a smile and humor made it a joy to watch! It is a privilege to be reminded that USA also is the home of so many decent people- It is good to get this reminder today so that Americans still can be proud of their felllow-citizens even though it might be hard to remember thase days.
Well stated.
The good old days when America had a leader.
George HW Bush is an example of selfless service. A remarkable man.
President Obama is not reading from a prompter, instead speaking intelligently from his own memory. Smart guy!!
I like the sentiment, but he was reading. He simply knows how read without appearing like he is not reading.
It doesn't matter if he's reading because we all know he's a writer too. Dreams From My Father put him on the map as an author before he was even a politician.
Obama smart lol
Cnn really did a number on you.
@@romanmax8561
@@romanmax8561 dumbass
2019. I'm still with Obama.
Obama awarded both Republicans and democrats soo unbiased not like today it is soo 😢
a lot of people criticize him. I’ve scene a lot of hate comments on him. To me his will always be one of the best presidents we have had
@bill bixby That's because FACTS speak for themselves. What a moron.
@@rashida7777 , Yes I totally agree, trump is such a moron
Yea, I'm sure President Obama agreed with all of President H.W. Bush's policies. This was definitely not a political PR move. GTFO.
@@miguelitosanchez Shut up he would have shut all the stupid oil wars down if he was that partisan!
Was so nice to see this vid ...we have forgotten what having a president feels like!
Rest in peace President Bush. Thank you President Obama.
And then we gave it to Rush Limbaugh how far have we fallen
I agree giving the medal giving Rush Limbaugh any medal is a freaking disgrace, he is a hater
It was given from somebody else,it does not count.
You know Rush Limbaugh stayed overnight at the White House when George H.W. Bush was president? In fact, Bush actually carried Rush's bag! Thus I think H.W. would have been proud that Rush got it.
Very well deserved!
Maha Rushie!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😃😃😂😂😂😂
Impeachment is forever? So is the Medal of Freedom, bitches.
What a gentleman Mr Obama is
Especially in this gloomy time, I missed the man.
Absolutely touching to see the 44th lend a helping hand to the 41st as he sits. All class, all round
It is awesome to see you honorJohn L. I know he is very proud of you Mr. President. So is Dr. King.
When a gentleman was a president.
As a Brit, I miss this amazing man.
Come back America. The world has missed you.
This is beautiful and inspiring. One day I will be an American ... A true citizen!!!
Fidellio369 these days are over sadly my friend.
Fidellio369 tg
Not the best times to be having those dreams. The “Antichrist” presently occupies the White House.
You are already more true American than trump.
For the life of me, I'll never understand how the United States went from this eloquent gentleman to the current bully sitting in the White House.
I don't either, Trump changed the atmosphere for the worse, anything goes, Lying, name calling mocking of ppl, legislators other heads of State is now acceptable to the Trump Base, never to anyone sane and decent though, Biden will win 4 sure 2021, what a mess USA is in from the day Trump had his crazy campaigns to now with this Pandemic :( better times coming!
Americans are racist and sometimes stupid. I'm still trying to figure out how we got ourselves in this current nightmare.
Donot blame Trump,blame the i-------ts who vote for him,
It all changes on November 3rd but it will take years to repair the damage.
"black"
I had a strong dislike for many of Obama's policies. However, he was/is a superb statesman, excellent orator, and a true gentleman. As man, I have great respect for him. When it comes to behavior, he is a great role model.
When you take class and dignity for granted, you’re left with a pornstar-bribing Twitter queen that tear gasses people for a photo op
Id like to send this comment to my friend if that's alt- right 😁
He is hilarious
Yes and holding a Bible in his hand upside down to reinforce his narcissistic worthlessness.
Chris ZA not to mention how he sullied the medal of freedom by giving one to Rush Limbaugh😡
And now we give it to rush Limbaugh, for doing his his part to drive a political wedge between Americans access the county, and help defeat the world's greatest democracy.
ScienceBitch for telling the truth.
I dislike president Obama's policies, but I do respect his tact and recognision of those who deserve credit. Well done.
@Michael Fitzsimmons - So does that mean you like Trump's policies, like caging children? Your hollow platitudes for Obama smell bad.
Just asking....as opposed to what other Presidents policies?
Trump could never be this graceful.
nope Trump has Narcisstic Personality Disorder, he is mentally unstable and yet he remains our President...4 now anyway
President TRUMP isnt clonw .
And DT cant even lower the flag to half staff for John McCain.
John mcain killed the healthcare reform. He was self serving failed military man. His wreckless action caused that fire on that aircraft carrier.
@@itsnotme-jl9jt Why don't you enlist and go to the front lines before you call anyone a failed soldier
@Lillel thats cute. Clinton was a draft dodger. Now go talk to the people whi served with McCain. Whats that, you don't want to do that. I didn't think so. And speaking of cowards, you won't even man up and stand by your comments and use yiur real name on here. Why is that, coward.
@@nzappazapp8360 flying over peoples heads dropping bombs is not the same as groundtroops slogging it out in the mud. I think you know the difference of what you call the front line. But you do use your real name on here and in 2020 that means alot.
@Lillel well that part is true. But thats because i can't figure out how to do it. I'm working on it.
I know you are going to kiss Dr. Maya Angelou.That was very elegant. I am so proud of you Mr. President. Great job.
Kiss on Dr maya angelou was so elegant and graceful yet so touching. Respect from Pakistan
Wow, grace and dignity from a President, hard to remember that
Gawd the good old days, when you could respect the inhabitants of the Whitehouse.
If it was Drump he would have given all the medals to himself.
And would have worn them around his neck at every public appearances.
I just had an image of Trump walking around with a ridiculous amount of metals on a military uniform that he didn't earn like some 3rd world dictator
@@aeroripper It can happen.
No
He would’ve melted several down and awarded himself the biggest best medal for saving the US economy and curing covid “because one death is too many”
Can’t believe Trump gave it to Rush Limbaugh
This is how a President must act not the sociopath narcissist who currently occupies the office in Donald J Trump

I really like the way people were smiling and happy. Can't wait to have a president you can be proud of.
Folks, remember this when you are going to vote again...
President Obama truly enjoyed this event!
Obama was a law professor of UChicago. Of course he is smart.
When you have the professor as the president, those were the days.
The way he looked at former president Bush, Obama was it. It will be along time before we see a president like that again. I'm not even an American but he was a president for the whole world.
All those things that happen during Obama administration, are unique and very special. Reason being, those Americans who received awards from President Obama, are equally very special people and they did not see him as a man of colour. How come some Americans still create barristers among their neighbours? Thank you President Obama. X
The first 60 seconds of this has more class and intelligence than the complete clown show currently in progress...
Very well put my friend.
You will never get this kind of inspiring history and humour from Trumpanzee! that's why I'm watching today.
And they'd why Trump supporters watch. The want this and can't get it. So they skult around Obamas vids. They're crazier than Trump.
Trump should've never been elected for dog catcher much less president of this great country that was great before he became president hell he makes George W look like a saint
Trump supporters are not NWO supporters like Barrack Hussein supporters.
"Trumpanzee", whoa. I don't think I'll ever forget that one.
@@johnwest3287 "NWO" came from Bush I's lips.
It's pressure to honouring someone whom u respect for what he/ she did for the nation but not for urself " it's an inspiration to our leaders , God bless u forever
Watching this presentation in May 2020 oh how we miss an intelligent and articulate President who is able to honour the best efforts of others without a single reference to his own actions. Well spoken and with appropriate humour such a far cry from the current incumbent, you don’t know what you are missing until you are shown the poor individual who currently occupies the White House looking forward to a change in January 2021!
This is why I love our country. Forget greed, meanness, lies, etc. This should provide for all of us a greatness that can't be measured. It was a blessing to hear and watch this event. Come on, people. Let's pull together to show the whole world why our form of government is the best, or at least try to live up to these accomplishments. Politics shouldn't become a dirty sport. May we achieve this kind of greatness again.
I have always admired President Obama since I heard or him & saw him interviewed by Oprah W. in her show. God bless him, family & God bless America!
Obama has been the president who shows of young generations what a real president should be. He has shown them what ethics are, how to tell the truth no matter the cost, and how to treat others with respect.
What a great American president.
This....is the real America I remember. The decency that has been lost. The civility that has departed.
Now that’s what a president looks like. Including all that came before him.
"And when we award it to" Rush Limbaugh... you fill in the blank, I can't.
Oh how I miss having a "normal" & decent President like Obama and even GW Bush, such sad chaotic times with Trump in the White house now 😢
no.
JoJo Ber bush really you forgot Irak ??
@@bindongodembele3381 no i didn't forget Iraq u r right though that was terrible we had no buisiness going to war with them there were NO WMD'S but Bush Jr was still far better than DJT in any regard, total chaos since day 1 with the Narcissit in Chief
When there was class not an @ss in the seat.
Yes that is correct. If you invade Ukraine, do nothing including help arming them. Watch ISIS take over 1/3 of the middle east and inspire 150 terrorist attacks in western Europe. Load up on regulations that kill economic growth. Never challenge NAFTA or China on trade deals. Tell America manufacturing jobs will never come back. He was an awesome president indeed. Unless you live in America, yeah not so much.
@@itsnotme-jl9jt That's all bs propaganda for idiots. The truth can now be revealed by the failure in management of the Corona pandemic.
When you believe that the trade war would create jobs in the US or the sanctions on Iran reduce the threat of terrorism or that detaining immigrants kids will improve the welfare of Americans
Paul Aspen Canada what a fucking idiot
john grogan As you go from right to left on the political spectrum, you will see the average IQ increasing linearly. It dips at the extreme left but peaks at moderate left. Proud to be Democrat.
Obama the emcee
This is what it means to be president. It's not about the president and his supporters legacy. It's about the people who the president humbles himself before them and goes out of the way to honor them without grandstanding for himself.
Awesome, don''t we miss him.
My God...will the UD ever have a president like this again!
God, how I miss having a President with decency and integrity.
Back when we had a President who was a class act
Mr. President u r my favorite president of United States of America I am a Sri lanken what I liked an love in u is u r a great human been an a family person but u have missed one person on giving the freedom medal to the king of pop mr.Mj ......
A president who respects his predecessors and cares about what they think! Miss this a lot! #biden2020
ALWAYS INSPIRING..MY PRESIDENT FOR LIFE.
I'm crying for the country we used to be. Please lord let us go back to be a decent country.
I've been going back over these in 2020. We had some great presidents once upon a time.
I am just weeping, why don't people see that this is what a president should be like, why do they want someone who stirs people to violence, bullies those who are vulnerable, why are they so blind
It just blew my mind hearing Obama speak compared to a "so called" president we have now. Adult language Obama and childish trump
This kind of commraderie and gentlemanship is what I miss about the Obama Whitehouse. The man was just class. The respect and honor he showed the former president is just class and well deserved.
Notice how the former President gave the medal to some he didn't agree with..and some who didn't. VOTE FOR HIM!
Notice how he honored so many who GAVE TO SOCIETY even more than they accomplished professionally
Notice how naturally he was with touching and comforting slightly nervous recipients
Notice how easily he broke into a smile and relaxed the room
How Lucky Were We?
I love watching Obama speak. No matter the subject. Such great speeches.
God, how refreshing. . .a REAL President !
I'm a republican proudly voting Blue in 2020.
From this one to the current loony at the WH? America, what happened? 😢
electoral college caused this.
Ideology, hatred of others, xenophobia, racism, misogyny and the Russian state (Putin) and his thousands of hackers to bring down democracy which they have been doing for decades. They much like the Confederates who lost a civil war here, in World War II the Russians should have never been allowed to take Berlin. They work from grudge and their version of justice. Putin believes he is the rebirth of Stalin. Very complicated issue, multilayered. But the Russians have never been our “friends”
I know makes me sick, miss having a decent respectful, intelligent kind man in the White House, look @ the numb skull we have now, a divider and hater of anything Obama or even a slight against Trump, he goes straight 4 the jugular, he is mentally unstable Biden will win hand down 2021!
Immigrants
White privilege,
This is what CLASS looks like...real class!
A great President Obama to be remembered all time for his extraordinary qualities to lead a great nation and to uphold US leadership in the global stage.
Miss Mr.President Obama so much❤❤❤
Compare this to today. It's a National shame. Please get out to vote in November and save our country.
Future presidents can learn from a humbled and motivated president like former President Obama.
I'm just here to remember what it was like to listen to an actual great president, instead of a petulant man-child like we have now. Can you imagine Trump delivering anything close to this?!
