President Barack Obama has been discussing a post-presidential career in digital media and is considering launching his own media company, according to multiple sources who spoke on background because they were not authorized to speak for the president.
Obama considers media to be a central focus of his next chapter, these sources say, though exactly what form that will take — a show streaming on Netflix, a web series on a comedy site or something else — remains unclear. Obama has gone so far as to discuss launching his own media company, according to one source with knowledge of the matter, although he has reportedly cooled on the idea of late.

I have a digit for him.
He’d be a great presenter for Al Jizzum (or whatever it’s called....).
I thought there already was a MeTV.
His chance of success in any business, other than politics, is nil.The asswipe might fool the stupid voters twice but he is a non-starter in the business world. AND he know it.
How much does asswipe get as fed pension, senator & Pres.?
How much from we suckers in Ill.? He was a state senator too
How did he get to be a multi millionaire on prez salary?
(That last question was rhetorical) He got wealth the same way every rat politician does.
He’ll be giving digital exams at the I-95 rest stops?.............
STFU, Obama. PLEASE! Get out of our faces, for the love of God!
Sorry the O Network is already taken
I hope God steps in at some point....soon...
There aren’t enough gay porn sites already?
Talk about lobbying....
Oh great. He’s going to be like one of those little yappy dogs you can’t get to shut up!
Radio. Radio for sure. He can get the 12-3pm slot.
Yeah he cooled on the idea when he found out it might, just possibly involve some work.
How embarrassing.
Thank God. Something he is qualified for. Community Agitator. I mean. After all somebody gotta replace Sharpton, and Jacksone to continue Racism into the 21st Century. Best of luck Jug Ears.
Whereupon all of us, the hapless citizens of this land, will be denounced as RACISTS and the Democrats will, in the interests of equity, carve out a taxpayer subsidy for the operation to continue ... 'till the end of time!'
Well, he doesn’t have any marketable skills, soooo...
