On his way out the door, President Obama is embracing his street organizer roots and encouraging protesters against Donald Trump’s presidency to not be silent.
Speaking to reporters in Berlin, Obama said, “One of the great things about our democracy is it expresses itself in all sorts of ways. And that includes people protesting.
“I’ve been the subject of protests during the course of my eight years. And I suspect that there’s not a president in our history that at some point hasn’t been subject to these protests.
“So I would not advise people would feel strongly or are concerned about some of the issues that have been raised during the course of the campaign, I wouldn’t advise them to be silent. What I would advise, what I advised before the election and what I will continue to advise after the election is that elections matter.”

No surprises here. "Community Organizer" is just a PC expression for Obama's real life's calling - Communist Street Agitator.
Yeah, he's in line to replace Sharpton or Jackson when one of them retires as "race baiters"!!!!
The presidency is bigger than politics. Obama doesn't have a clue. He thinks he is still a community organizer.
The protesting isn't the issue, provided it is done in an orderly fashion.
Blowing roadways and people from getting in and out of building is not appropriate behavior.
If Hilda has won the election and the conservatives were acting like the current protester's the media, politicians and all the other low classes would be all over it.
Please keep in mind that the conservatives DID NOT act like these protestors when Obama won the elections in 2008 and 2012.
It is time for people to put on their big girl/boy panties and act like mature adults. I know that will be a huge undertaking for them, but with any sense of decency they should be able to do this.
All these protesters are proving is that they are not as tolerant as they think they are.
Community Organizer??? No, he's a hate organizer, always has been.
10:06 - no - street thug!
Come on.
Obama is intelligence.
He was a Manchurian Candidate.
Came from nowhere, and did nothing that any of us know of.
All of his records are sealed from view.
Secret President for the secret government.
The Agitator just needs to Shut Up for the rest of his term
and finish taking his around the world vacations on the
very expensive Air Force One, costing millions per trip...
It was wrong how he went to Europe and Bad mouthed the new
President-Elect Trump .....
They say when the Campaign is Over it is Over .....they
(the Dems) need to practice What they Preach .......
Now was supposed to be the time to bury the hatchet and
come together.... TELL THAT TO OBAMA !!
Jan 20th in DC will be very interesting!
Obama still campaigning to do all he can to Hurt Trump and
us Deplorables ( the majority of USA)
He and Dems not burying any Hatchets....they still sceeming
