    Obama’s human rights record is abysmal. Sure he did a lot of good things too, but not closing Guantanamo, ramping up drone strikes etc negate all of that good. I’ve written him a couple of letters with all of this in detail to which he has yet to respond (no surprise). Instead he’s doing voice over work for shitty documentaries on Netflix.

      Obama hasn’t been president for nearly a decade.

      And there are a lot of things to criticize him about, but he legitimately tried to close Guantanamo, and was blocked by Republicans (and possibly some Democrats?) over and over.
