    Obama thinks he is the 4th best president of all time, atleast we know he doesnt lack humility. :D



    George Washington was the father of our country.

    Eh! No big deal. Barack Obama is better...at least in his own mind. Such was the laughably absurd claim of President Obama on 60 Minutes last Sunday. What? You didn't see it? That was because 60 Minutes conveniently left it out of its broadcast. If you want to see Obama engage in this latest bit of over the top braggadocio you can only see it at the online 60 Minutes Overtime which has a video of the entire interview. You can catch Obama's excessive praise of himself at the tail end of the interview starting with Steve Kroft's question just before the 55 minute mark:

  2. Obama thinks he is the 4th best president ever,

    The guy is probably dead on serious. I says kudos to our society, we have sukceeded. Everyone gets a trophy, every one has high self esteem, no one fails.

    You know.......ask anyone if they're a good driver, the reply is affirmative, it's the other guy who's the problem.
     
  3. I would agree with that assessment . :) .

    He does add "in modern history" at the end of his comments, and he does only mention legislative and foreign policy achievements. So, to be fair, he's not saying he's the 4th best President ever.

    But the comment is full of arrogance and is patently false. Reagan brought down the Soviet Union. Kennedy had the cuban missle crisis weathered pretty well. I doubt Obama could have handled either of those even remotely well.

    He also listed lincoln in his list of presidents who are better than him so ib his mind he is going back atleast that far.
