Barack Obama has been campaigning for Hillary Clinton for months. This week, Michelle Obama joined Clinton on the stump for the first time. This has many people asking, who is paying for these campaign trips?
The answer is simple. You are.
Barack Obama’s taxpayer-funded paycheck continues whether or not he’s performing his presidential duties — even if he’s working for another presidential campaign.
Obama has even extended presidential privileges directly to Hillary Clinton, allowing her to fly on Air Force One during her campaign.
Now, many Americans are attempting to stop this apparent conflict of interest.
A petition has begun circulating that demands that Barack Obama not collect his salary while he campaigns for Hillary Clinton. See the petition on the next page:
He is paid to be President, not to endorse or campaign for anyone, especially the loser on his ticket.
You think wrong, difference between a liberal and conservative
Ralph Balko I’m actually a libertarian, not a liberal thank you.
He is corrupted
This is so damn wrong! No president has ever done this before. He and Hillary should have to pay for the use of the peoples airplane. I am so sick of these fucking politicians ripping off the American people. We need a revolution to get rid of these corrupt people!!!!! I have never been this angry in my life. Come on people let’s get rid of these bastards!
Yes time has come for them to wave goodbye
Yes no pay.
Yes and he must pay America back for using air force 1
It’s becoming the American way lie cheat steal
We agree especially now we know the price of using air force one for a hour
