I know that. What we don't know is how many things Obama did for the corporations paying that kind of crazy money while he was President...and how much lobbying he does with Congress behind the scenes right now for those same companies.
He's not alone...EVERY politician does the same thing. That's why they all want that power in the first place.
It's utter and complete corruption.
It's the reason that Obama doesn't live in his beachside mansion in Hawaii...there's too much money and too much political corruption and cronyism in Washington D.C.
He has the juice to get that money because of his connections.
NOBODY has $400,000 worth of "wisdom" or "wit" to give in a "speech" for rich people.
And NOBODY is stupid enough to pay Obama $400,000...UNLESS they know they are getting their return of investment from it.
These politicians are playing us all like fools. They promise the world, and then break all their promises. Then they leave office and get rich.
And what about all the poor people who voted for Obama? "Yes He Can!" "Hope And Change!"
Well, they are all still poor. And he is now filthy rich.
