This is a symbolic gesture. It makes people feel good. Would you sign the petition? http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/move-over-...paign=rss&utm_content=/rss/yahoous&yptr=yahoo Move over Marine Le Pen and Francois Fillon, France wants Barack Obama for president A petition has been created to convince the former US president to run in the upcoming French elections. By Lara Rebello February 25, 2017 07:13 GMT The right-wing populists who could take power across Europe Newsweek International France is set to hold its presidential elections in April and despite being so close to the finish line, a new contender is being considered Barack Obama. A group of voters, unhappy with the current list of candidates, has launched a campaign to get the former US president to compete on French soil... so what if he's not a citizen. The guerrilla campaign was launched with a website and online petition, which aims to collect 1 million signatures by 15 March, following which the organisers will try to convince Obama to apply for the job. "Barack Obama has the best resume in the world for the job," the site mentions. "Because at a time when France is about to vote massively for the extreme right, we can still give a lesson of democracy to the planet by electing a French President, a foreigner." Around 500 'Obama 17' posters have also been spotted across Paris featuring the Nobel Laureate's photograph and his US campaign slogan "Yes we can" in French ("Oui on peut"). "We just wanted to say that we've had enough of all of these guys," one of the organisers who goes by the name Antoine, told The Verge. "In a campaign where we only talk about the scandals of [center-right candidate François] Fillon or the rise of [far-right candidate Marine] Le Pen, at a certain moment we told ourselves well, why not?" he explained. Antoine and his fellow organisers are aware that Obama will never really compete but they believe he is the only candidate inspires hopes of a better future. "The only guy who's ever made me feel that way is Obama," he said.

"But in another world, in 100 years or 200 years, it may not be a problem." The petition has already received over 35,000 signatures as of 24 February.
Its funny when the liberal media talks about stuff like this they refer to "France" as if its the entire nation and not just a collective of cucked bigoted radicals. But when they refer to anything else its "the far right" as if to suggest its just some small rogue element. Marine Le Pen is dominating. The cucks are trying to marginalize her the same way the American cucks tried to marginalize Trump. Brexit, Trump, Le Pen, then Germany, then Canada. Imagine ...ridding the world of radical bigoted liberalism. It would be the dawn of a grand era.
First it was Brexit. Then it was Trump. Soon it will be Marine Le Pen. Get used to it! The people have had enough!
I wouldn't wish Obama on my worst enemy! I have no particular hatred for the French - why would I want to burden them with our failed Marxist Community Organizer?
Because multiculturalism has never once, NOT ONCE, produced anything other than death and strife. G ahead, try and show me one period in human history where the merging of two or more cultures didn't end in war, subjugation, and chaos. Go ahead, you can't do it ...its never happened. Multiculturalism is a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing plague, we're simply not ready for it. Everybody needs to go to their corners and we'll live peacefully via the only mechanism that has brought peace between nations throughout all history: commerce.
No. Nothing to do with xenophobia. The new generation (Gen Z) of 'conservatives' are the least white generation ever born in the western world. You are very much mistaken.
Actually it can work, but not in the way that Progs insist it should. It has worked in countries like Indonesia for literally centuries .. via the outlawing of non-native languages, names, religions, and text (ideograms). The non-natives eventually lost their mother tongue, and merged almost entirely. There has been virtually no strife in this regard since the 1960's (murderous purge of 'communists' ... aka Chinese). Many people in the west don't even realise that places like Indonesia and Malaysia are multicultural, that's how smooth it all is.
Hmmm, so it essentially took the suppression of culture in order to make multiculturalism work. However effective that is it begs the question: Is that still even multiculturalism? I think its a great idea and I can see why those regions do it; because they've always been very practical people.
Exactly. That's why Progressives wouldn't stand for it. They actually think that 'clashing' cultures can exist side by side harmoniously. As long as it's not in their street, of course. Incidentally, the Indonesian model is not a complete suppression ... modest vestiges of culture remain. Mainly in things like food, and attitudes to education.
Multi culturalism works when the weaker cultures merge into the more successful, more advanced culture while the assimilation further strengthens the culture overall by absorbing the best points of the entering cultures. Maintaining multiple cultures in the same region is the height of stupidity.
Yup, multiculturalism is the second leading cause of all non-natural human death since the dawn of time.
