There is no doubt that our boy Obama is the coolest of the cool. And he just happens to be president, too. Here's a list that proves how he made being president cool again.
1. That swagger.
The constant reminder that he's got everything under control.
2. That humor.
"Between Two Ferns", "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee","The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", "Saturday Night Live"; the list goes on and on! The ability to have a self-deprecating sense of humor—even when you're the president—is a talent in and of itself.
3. Our boy's got game.
Look at that height! I bet it didn't even touch the rim.
4. He likes to live dangerously.
"A three and half foot drop? I got this." Look at that form too. I bet he landed graciously. Just as he always does.
5. Children love him.
For obvious reasons, of course.
6. He knows how to greet people.
The only way you should greet Bruce. Nailed it, as always.
7. Always looking cool
He even masters talking on the phone. He's probably talking to Trudeau, planning how they can overload the world with their coolness combined.
8. He brushes off the haters.
Presidents have to know how to get that dirt off their shoulders. Can't let it build up until you are buried under the blame you are putting on everyone else. Thank you for showing us what it is to be self-confident and to believe in yourself first and foremost.
9. This is his 2016 Christmas Card.
Thanks to none other than Justin Trudeau for encouraging this shot to be taken. You deserve our never ending gratitude for this precious moment.
10. His bromance with Biden.
Their love, their friendship, their teamwork. The dynamic between the two is something that we are so lucky to have had. Thanks for an incredible eight years.
11. Once again, that swagger.
Gotta check out my competition, then it is Shades on Blades On.
12. SO MUCH SWAGGER.
"Is it cool in here? Oh wait, it's just me."
13. He's always got our backs.
We always knew Obama was here at the end of the day to make us feel better even when times were rough.
14. That smile.
Reminding us that being the president can also be fun, sometimes.
15. All of the mic drops.
And well-deserved mic drops at that. You can mic drop your presidency on the last day sir. Job well done. Thank you for everything.
