U.S. President Barack Obama characterized the terrorist acts in Paris last week as "an attack on all of humanity and the universal values we share." But the terrorists and those whom they represent clearly do not share those values. As journalist Mark Steyn noted, these acts are "an attack on the West, on the civilization that built the modern world."
Yet Obama continues to obfuscate the specific nature of the attack, and in a manner consistent with his approach to Islamist terror in general. We have a hypothesis as to why.
Obama will still be a young man when he leaves the presidency. His multiple policy failures (which are failures by his own self-imposed yardsticks: Russia, Iran, Israel-Palestine, Syria) will not have diminished the capacious ego that he brought, and which brought him, to the White House.
What post-presidency career would Obama consider worthy of his future attention and efforts? Few jobs of Olympian prestige are available, and his self-admittedly vast self-esteem might diminish the list still further. Ambassador to Kenya? We think not. No, we agree with a number of other observers that Obama has his sights set on the office of United Nations Secretary-General.

No. He will want to be on that cabal that controls the US, in the TPP. Above US law.
Everytime a Democrat president gets ready to leave office, this comes up. UN rules don’t allow it.

He will revert to Kenyan citizenship.
During his speech today I thought he was auditioning for the post of leader of the Muslim World.
We heard the this about Bubba too. In the end it never materialized.

Can non-Christians be Pope?
Correction: Precedent says members of the Security Council don’t nominate a Sec-Gen from their countries, and the current regional rotation appears to be pointing to Eastern Europe
He would be a good fit. He would elevate the UN to the position staring up at a gnats ass.
If he had the authority, I'm sure he would withdraw the U.S. from the U.N, but only for the 5 minutes it took to accept the appointment, because the U.N. depends on U.S. money.
However, having Obama as Secretary-General would be the perfect excuse for our next president to cut funding to the U.N.
In Obama’s world, non-citizens can be President, so yes. Obama can be Pope.
With a little luck, ISIS will nuke Sodom-on-the-Potomac while The Won is home from the golf course.

Actually, if Obama were to become Secretarial General, it wouldn’t take much for a Republican President/Congress to cut the US contribution to that of Kenya. I’d vote for that.
“.............No, we agree with a number of other observers that Obama has his sights set on the office of United Nations Secretary-General.”
Aw C’mon people This is totally deja vu. EXACTLY what was said about Clinton in his last year.
When he’s out of the presidency, he’ll move into the position of the anti-Christ.
