Man I'm going to miss Obama. Now we are stuck with an annoying orange great.

Agree or disagree with Obama's leadership, what cannot be denied is he is a man of great dignity, integrity, respect, and maturity. He is a marvelous orator, he's intelligent, educated, articulate, humble, secure in himself, he has an open mind, a great sense of humor and wit, he's appreciative, and while I've disagreed with many of his policies throughout his tenure (I'm a conservative), speaking on his character and values he is absolutely someone that I want representing me and my country and that I hold great admiration for. This is a person of immense class and grace that deserves respect because he gives respect. It is truly a tragedy that now comes in someone that holds none of these traits. Trump is a detestable, abhorrent person. He's a shameful embarrassment to our nation and an abysmal example to all as someone to look up to or follow. He could never make a speech like this without pointing out the "sore losers", how amazing he is, and spewing his infantile, petulant, vindictive vitriol everywhere while having his supporters chanting intolerance all the while. This is very disheartening to see, much less watching so many reveling in it. So thank you, Obama. Throughout the next four years I'll always have your example to look at as to how a real president and leader should act. You were my president, and I say that with pride. You will be very much missed.

All he had to say was “Michelle” and an entire crowd stood and applauded

I'm in tears...one year later and I'm watching this because I miss this amazing man as our President. America needs a leader like you now more than ever.

This is what you call a president. A president that cares deeply about the American people. Thank you Obama.

Even if I don't like his policies, you cannot deny this mans talent for public speaking. Dignified, respectful, and totally organized. Great speech.

Obama: “Of all that I have done in my life, I am most proud to be your Dad.” Trump: “If she wasn’t my daughter, I would be dating her.”

Who is here in 2020? 47:22 "I've seen our doctors and volunteers rebuild after earthquakes and stop pandemics in their tracks." I miss his leadership right now!

We won't see an orator like that in a long time

Regardless of how we all feel about Barack Obama and what he did/didn't accomplish while as President, can we at least all agree that OVERALL (cause every President does have some failures) the United States of America is in a better place because of his presidency? I am a democrat but I will put political bias aside for this critique (for the most part). Yes, ObamaCare did have its problems, the national debt nearly doubled, Guantanamo Bay has still not been closed, ISIS became a military problem, North Korea is a bigger threat than ever, and shootings are seen as a bigger/more common problem in our society today. Also, he pledged to bring the political parties in Congress together and be a unifier President, but (whether it was his policies or the decisions by the Congress) that didn't happen. There were plenty of failures during the last 8 years, even his biggest supporters won't deny that. With that said, he does have many accomplishments, even with these failures; millions of people now have healthcare, Osama Bin Laden and many terrorist leaders are dead, the wars started by George W. Bush ended, Guantanamo Bay's prison population has been reduced to only a handful, and race-issues can't just be ignored like they used to be in our society. The unemployment rate is lower than it was during George W. Bush's 2nd term, the auto, banking, and housing industries have recovered from the greatest crisis since the 1930s, we have begun re-establishing relations with Cuba and Iran for the 1st time in decades, and the U. S. brought the whole world together on global climate change agreements. Furthermore, every LGBT citizen can legally marry, more states have legalized medicinal marijuana, women's pay wage gaps have decreased, he put 2 women on the Supreme Court, and millions of Hispanic and Islamic immigrants have become citizens. These were a lot of difficult issues to deal with in just 8 years, and even when the majority of politicians and citizens disagreed with this man he never gave up trying to make our country better despite many setbacks. Overall, was Barack Obama a perfect President? No, I will admit that he did have some failures, though he shouldn't be blamed for every bad thing that happened during his Presidency. Is the country as a whole better off now than it was in January of 2009? Yes, but we still have more we need to come together on (Democrats, Republicans, and Independents) to keep making progress to improve the lives of every American. Finally, in terms of being the 1st African-American President, he did the best he could despite the prejudice and racism he faced. Plus, regardless whether you personally liked this man or not, he leaves office with a decent approval rating with more people liking him than those that don't. While we don't know how many of his accomplishments or failures will be remembered in the near future, as a whole Barack Obama will be seen as the 1st African-American President that made this country better than it was when he started despite opposition and uncertainty; that (in my opinion) will be his legacy!

Man I come back to this video all the time. Miss tf out Obama

People don't appreciate shit till it's gone.

Who else literally watched the whole video

2020 and at home under lockdown. Don't you miss this man?!

God we need him more than ever .. 2020 please be good to us 😭

he was a man of the people. he was not perfect but he tried his hardest. he was a family man above all and a prime example to all Americans.

I'm going to miss having an adult in the White House.

Going from Obama to Trump is like swapping a diamond for a rock. . Miss you, Mr. President!

We're going to look back on this in four years and realise how good we had it

Even though I'm not an American , there was something in this speech that made me tear up....Farewell Mr. Obama❤️

As a Kenyan, I am really proud of Obama... He will be missed.

Dec 30 2019 needing this for motivation going into 2020 all the way in Botswana, Africa🇧🇼

Oh, we had it so good. I'll never forget President Obama's time in office. He was my president through my adolescence and early 20s, and I wouldn't have had it any other way.

Best wishes to the first family who made America proud. From an unknown Asian.

Guy's don't respond to Trumps supporters with hatred and name calling. Show them the respect and compassion Obama would. Don't give them more reason to hate you, Obama, or his supporters. Worst case scenario they just end up high-fiving themselves and their numbers won't grow since there won't be any more hate out there for them to harvest. If you are watching this video you're here to respect this man and honor his legacy, not to get into another fruitless argument with the opposition.

I love hearing him talk.

When he says “for all my remaining days” it always makes me tear up.

I'm in tears, I don't think I'm gonna stop crying in the next four years😭

"Michelle...for the past twenty-five years, you have been not only my wife and mother of my children, you have been my best friend. You took on a role you didn’t ask for and made it your own with grace and grit and style and good humor. You made the White House a place that belongs to everybody. And a new generation sets its sights higher because it has you as a role model. You’ve made me proud. You’ve made the country proud." Gosh...French peoples loves you mister Obama...

Watching this now, makes me more emotional than ever. He was an amazing man and everything a president should be. He's still sorely missed.

I still love to say “YES WE CAN” on August 8 Year 2019. ✅

You know as a republican, as a president Obama wasn't my favorite, however as a person I find him a very respectable person and a great man to his family. I liked how he defended Trump and that how he is going to do the peaceful transition of power to continue our democracy. I have a new found respect for him for he is a man of his word and true defender of democracy. I loved this speech it was very very touching and very patriotic. I'm proud to have him as president of this great nation.

I don't care what your gender, race, ethnicity is, democratic or not, wether you liked him being president or not, he deserves so much respect, him and his family, one of the most classy family. He didn't have to tell anyone to stop booing at trump, he didn't have to talk about Michelle, Joe Biden, his daughters, staff, he didn't have to thank us either, but he did. Such a respectable man. I don't imagine trump ever saying any of this (at least he won't mean it if he does). We will miss you Obama

Just the fact that people there were teared up shows how much respect this president earned throughout the years.

I was there. One of my greatest experiences. Came here to revisit that day again because FB reminded me of it as I shared it live that day with my family and friends.

the gentleman who sang the national anthem did a fantastic job. very impressive.

I'm not an american, I'm not a democrat and I'm not a republican. However, I will say that I sincerely think Barack Obama has been by far the classiest, most charismatic, most inspiring and downright coolest US president I have thus far seen. He will be greatly miss the world over and, regardless of what the new administration or the new congress do to repeal his accomplishments, his legacy will remain forever. It will remain because he has inspired a whole new generation of people, something I don't think any other US president (save perhaps Reagan) has done in the past 30-40 years.

I voted for Obama and I don’t regret it.

I'm watching this in 2020 😍😉

What a graceful and beautiful family. Brought tears to my eyes I will miss them and the Biden family so much ugh it hurts. No one will ever top them and as a 19 year old young woman I'm SO glad I got to grow up with Barack Obama as my president.

ughhhhh no such a classy and caring president leaving so a classless and hateful failed businessman can take his place :(

Our greatest President in modern history. #44Forever

Sir thank you for giving us my family a chance to sleep well.

How dare FOX PIGGYBACK OFF President Obama's farewell with negative commentary. SMH... President Obama's confirmed validated FACTS! He was very impactful for the American people....Thank you President Obama!!!!👍🏽

I am not even American, I'm British, and i just think this man is fantastic. 8 good years which progressed the states and the world itself. Obama will forever be great!

I am not american but for 8 years i really was...i salute this man and first lady Michelle

I can't imagine I've watched the whole of this today. Wow!

As a Canadian, how America went from a tall cup of hot chocolate to a melting creamsicle with pubes on it is beyond me....

I'm not American but he makes me feel like I was for 8 years

Obama: So, we- Crowd: WOOO (aplause) *there is another*

Now THAT'S what I call a President!

I'm a Syrian-Turkish citizen, even though I'm not an American but I still have that feeling that Barack Obama didn't only lead the United States, but the earth itself, Amazingly. I don't have the ability to say I'm proud to have such a leader as Obama, but I say I'm proud to live in a generation that had a great man who have always protected the Human rights with my respect from my heart I wish the United States the best. God bless the earth

Miss you Obama. History will pay you respect

The end part made me soo emotional.I hope he has a great time and i wish the best for him and his family as they really deserve it.

August 2020 and I’m still here, listening 👂 with 😭 to an honest politician to ever do it. We love you Mr President we miss you now more than ever. #44Forever ❤️😷

The greatest president of our times! Can you believe what we've just elected? (in comparison to this great human)

Hey Michelle you like exercise why don't you run for president

This is class, will trump get a crowd saying four more years, no he will get, you owe us 4yrs!

The greatest Icon of the 21st Century

I'm gonna miss this guy just as such a respectful and classy gentleman, and as a stylish superstar, regardless what he did or what kinda personality he's got.

speech starts 5:37

Miss him so much. All class, all heart.

I was 6 when he entered office I’m now 15

Thankyou Mr President, i have learnt so much from you

:( even Australia will miss you

I am confident George Washington would be proud of the United States had a great man, Obama as a leader. A president.

He is a lot more presidential than trump. He doesn't just try to manipulate his supporters into doing his bidding. I will forever miss Obama's leadership.

now I don't want to start an argument with anyone at all but I'm gonna miss Obama really much I hope he is doing fine

I'm an Indian and I have never ever felt such profound respect for an international leader as I have felt for Obama. He is the noble man of this century!

This makes me feel safe . Please come back please

President Barack Obama - *Made* America Great Again

I will miss President Obama. He truly helped me as an ARMY VETERAN. I salute him and wish him well in his future. No president is perfect. He didn't mess up the country. We have been messed up for years.

Thank You ABC News for sharing your clean and full video.

The coolest US president of all time 😘😘🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Obama, please come back...

The microphone blends in with his suit

Good bye to a humble, reasonable leader

Although I am not American living outside of US, I come back to hear this speech every once a while. That's how good and powerful this speech was.

this felt like the end of an era

I'm not American, but I love this president!

I'm totally proud of being a Native Washingtonian of the District of Columbia! USA...watching this broadcasting and from (Malmö) Sweden God Bless you all and God Bless the United States of America!🍒🍒🍒🏛🏛🏛💲💲💲

For some reason unknown , even we Indians could feel a connect with him. And he'd probably be missed forever, bcoz there hasn't been a combination of chivalry, charisma, character and an excellent sense of humour. There was no one ever, and I dont think there will be anyone in the near future. He truely defines what it's like to be a gentleman.

Those last few minutes of the speech made me cry when I watched it live and make me cry now. Miss him

Who else cried

THE BEST PRESIDENT SINCE JFK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Michelle and I-" HEY MICHELLE!!

He shook so many hands and hugged so many people at the end of the speech. That's love and appreciation for you right there.

Love him or hate him, you got to admit Obama is a very sensible man.

Thanks ABC whenever I miss them I can come here and get a refill. God bless President & Mrs. Obama

The sheer fucking chad energy when he walked down that carpet

Needed this to remind me what a REAL PRESIDENT LOOKS LIKE, SOUNDS LIKE & STANDS FOR!!!!! Thanks to the Obamas for their service, you all are truly missed!

they started chanting 4 more years I started tearing up! It was so nice having this intelligent, well-intended, loving man as the leader of America. His leadership has been moving and inspiring

I'm gonna miss Obama he was a good man

Obama is darn well classic! No wonder Trump so insecure of his intellect! Gosh we missed Obama leadership.

I miss his kindness

Thank you, President Obama.

Obama you were so awesome as President the nation will miss you

Love from India 🇮🇳 Barack Obama Mr.President 🙏

Amazing... It brought back memories of days when America was really GREAT...
