Courtesy of the Daily Kos:The first time President Obama met with his US Attorneys, he told us, “I appointed you but you don’t serve me. You serve the American people. And I expect you to act with independence & integrity.” None of us ever forgot that.— Joyce Alene (@JoyceWhiteVance) December 29, 2017
Trump demanded government employees (appointed or not) give their sole loyalty and service to him. President Obama demanded loyalty and service be given to the American people. There lies the difference between self-serving—and selflessness. There lies the difference between self-importance—and greatness.
Barak Obama is what a real leader looks like, and he is dearly missed.
Oh did I not mention that the loyalty Obama demanded was to the American people and the Constitution?
Because of course it was.
