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:
Absolutely, he not doing the peoples bidding. He’s utilizing AF 1 and all that are required along with for purposes outside the scope of government business.
He’s protecting this country from all enemies foreign and domestic. Trump being of the domestic variety. Give him a raise!
That’s not his job as potus,get back to ruining America #barrythetraitorsamerica

Mark my words! She will win this election against all odds!
He shouldn’t get paid
I agree. He never has done a good job or even done the job.
Yes I do agree
It might be well for Trump IF Obama did campaign for Hillary . He is not an asset .
