I don't get it.  For the last two decades the Clinton's have cashed in big time on their psuedo-celebrity with nary a peep.  Now Obama takes $400K of Wall Street money and they left is griping?!?!?  Come on people, let's be consistent for once.  The Clinton's took cash from Wall Street, tin horn dictators, oppressive regimes, commies, etc. and you don't have a worry in the world but the our first black President decides to cash in and you are objecting?  I would hate to think this is about the color of his skin but that seems to me the only difference.

Throiughout his career, Obama has made brash statements on most every subiect imaginable, and the over time he has taken the exact opposite stand when these same subjects surface again. He is getting $400,000.00 to give a speech to Wall Street to which he often referred to as "fat cats". At the White House Correspondent's Dinner a year ago, he teased Hillary over her six-figure sppeches to Wall Street banks. He said "if this material goes well, I'll use it at Goldman Sachs next year and earn me some serious Tubmans". His views on most subjects change frequently, depending on what helps him most at any given time. Since he is responsible for increasing our National Debt by $10 trillion dollars, it would be a nice gesture if he contributed his speaking fee to a worthy charity.

"our first black President decides to cash in and you are objecting?  I would hate to think this is about the color of his skin but that seems to me the only difference." Glad to see you are so logical in your reasoning....you understand better than the typical Trump voter that black does matter.

Note I was specifically referring to those on the left crticizing Obama.  So yes, I agree with you that leftists are the racists.

I find it amazing that the left didn't think he would.  There was nothing about the Obama's that led me to believe they wouldn't.  They definitely like the high life.

"I feel sure it is not the Obamas" Why do you feel that way? As he said it is time to satrt eaning a living and the $400,000 after taxes will pay the $22,000 monthly rent for a year. He is doing what Trump is doing...maintaining  a DC residence until the youngest daughter graduates from high school. Then, he will return to Chicago. The difference is the taxpayers are paying for Melania to stay in New York.

  Not that they are cashing in but that he is doing it publicly. He should be doing it with behind the scenes, under the table graft and corruption like the rest of the democrats.

IT seems Mrs. Bernie may be in a tight spot of her own with some fraudulent loans for the school. ???? My shocked face. Google up how Bernie siphoned off tens of millions of his left over campaign money through a company his wife set up just before he withdrew. Sad thing is it was apparently legal. His wife's company moved the money from entity to entity taking a 15% fee each time. The first transaction netted 15 million pre-tax. Haha, like they really paid taxes on it.
