1. Love those Obama 5 minutes of pauses - sorta like John Cage

2. Comments on the YouTube channel about Obama's (pregnant?) pauses...

- Better than fatty fatty boom boom gasping for air every 2 seconds
- At least someone who thinks before he speaks.
- Even President Obama's pauses are infinitely more eloquent, informative, helpful and presidential than all of Big Baby Traitor Trump's incoherent egocentric ramblings.
