Barack Obama & Misty Copeland On Race, Body Image & Staying Humble | The Influencers | TIME

A true master at articulating himself and whats on a person's mind
Amit Kumar. Yes he was.
wow, remember when the president spoke in complete sentences? what a time it was
And remember when the U.S. President was actually ''presidential.'' Those were the days.
Sam Hanson Oh my goodness...so refreshing..
c mac You know things are bad when people start missing Barack Obama in the White House. The Tangerine Teletubby is lacking the basic traits of what makes someone a President and I wonder if he will ever acquire those qualities. I sincerely doubt it!!
DT doesn't make 4 years. He is an utter embarrassment and a national disgrace. The Dems will be running against President Pence in 2020.
Sam Hanson hahahahhahhaahhahshah!!!
I cannot recall any other speaker in any field or of any race that has so much grace, dignity, humor, fluidity, and warmth when they speak. His very being inspired me during my years in law school. I sat up straighter in my seat, carried myself with more dignity, an answered my professors' with more confidence even when the courses were kicking my butt. The man was born to be an orator of hope and change. While I did not agree with all of his politics, I surely miss his dignified manner in Washington.
wow "a dignified manner" is that all it takes?
@@luisnieves8242 and a really big, uh, mmm, uh, mmmm, you know, uh, heart. LOL!
This was beautiful for my eyes to read. Thank you.
and bombed 7 countries in 7 years you fucking idiot
@@monicaturk8001 so did so many other white presidents
Fifty years from now, I will STILL call him president Obama.
Jason Gafar and I will also call him a president that did't do shit for 8 years.
He killed Osama Bin Laden, and spoke in complete sentences. Also, he protected the folks in the "Bowling Green Massacre"
...would be hard not to...and for profound reasons.
Yes,It will be a long time before we get another President this intelligent again.
Just read this brilliant tweet which pretty much says it all.

Obama entered White House amidst global crisis, worked to restore order/calm. Trump arrived to relative order/calm, worked to create chaos.
Obama is an amazing human. I'm not even American nor have I ever cared much about any US presidents before, but I would look for Obama interviews because I just like to hear him talk, I always learn something from him. He is just a great role model for ANYONE in this world.
He is an amazing man indeed. He dealt with unprecedented hatred and obstruction and always handled it with class and grace.
Connie Lo We had a philosopher for a president in the last 8 years. It's been quite a shocking change.
Connie Lo and you speak english as one. thats what education does for you. isnt great to hear americans speak chinese?
Connie Lo So true!
Connie Lo you are a cutie by the way
I'll personally miss President Obama, thankful to have lived to see the most influential, intelligent and lovable president in the world. He showered love to the world, brought all religions together. He preached peace and unity....every nation in the world miss Obama.
if only he went to one of them.
the countries he bombed won't miss him
Love you President Obama and Misty
Copeland. Thank you for your service
Mr Obama.
That President is truly one of a kind.
Victor Elensi. Yes,one of a kind
He still my president I'm not even an American
I feel bad for the people who have been convinced you have to hate a man because you don't agree w his policies. Some of you are really convinced he's evil and that's hilarious.
The Truth, i think you are confused
The Truth its not just Democrats watch the news smh
JEB845 music. i totally agree.
I DON'T HATE TRUMP, I HATE THAT HE IS A RACIST AND A VERY DANGEROUS RACIST BUT WAS IT PLAYS OUT NO ONE HAS TO SAY IT ANYMORE, WELL HE HAS ALREADY PROVEN THAT FACT ,BUT THE DEVIL GREATEST LIE WAS CONVINCING EVERYONE THAT HE DOESN'T EXIST REMEMBER THAT
James9533 unfortunately for some individuals hate is in embedded within their DNA. I always wonder how it feels hating or disliking a human being you see but DO NOT truly know.
I'm French, and I wanted him to be my President. I think he is one of the most intelligent, humble and cool human being in the world !
the french deserve better,sorry!
I'm Italian and either one is fine.
It’s the African genes in him. We’re cool like that.
Oh gosh.. What did he do? Who cares if he is a good talker, the world is not a Talk show. His politics were a disaster. Nobel price for doing nothing!
@@KEJE78 Nothing. Can't you even be positive about an uplifting interview like this one with Misty Copeland? How many presidents sit down for an interview with a ballet dancer?
Class, class, class.
So nice to hear an intelligent articulate gentleman President. So tired of the inarticulate buffoon in the White House.
Just because he is a good bullshitter and good orator does not making him intelligent nor a gentleman. He was smart in knowing how to use his accomplices in the media to his advantage. Unfortunately he did not accomplish a damn thing. Donald Trump has accomplished much more in his first 2 years in office than this guy in his 8 years in office. end of story.
@@jlove7723 what has trump done other than be Russia bitch
@@jlove7723: Exactly what has he accomplished to benefit the people of the U.S.?
Yasmin Naik he is really not a bafoon he saved his company from bankruptcy 13 times and is a self made billionaire with his father’s help of course he just is a really honest raw guy
@@victorbergman9169 What is the source for your information?
I miss my president 😭😭
you can have him!!
@@jlove7723 dude I bet even whites don't like u
and you don't eve like yourself so what's your point?@@randyjohnson899
@@jlove7723 like myself enough to know ain't nothing to u you in Obama videos that tells me who 9n your mind the most hahaga
Learn how to write @@randyjohnson899 so that I can I try to understand what you are trying to convey in your response. or is this "ebonics"
Oh, how I miss this incredibly composed, humane and intelligent man.
Don't be so easily fooled. Who do you think is pulling the strings of the Biden puppet??
Two champions in their perspective fields. Misty Copeland is a cutie. President Obama is classy. Now look what we got as POTUS?!
Sean Sartor. i totally agree.
Just read this brilliant tweet which pretty much says it all.

Precisely, but Trump supporters refuse to see that. I guess that's why for many Obama is like America's ex boyfriend she still keeps on stalking.
Misty Copeland is pure class.
"....The fact that they got a tall gorgeous Mum who have some curve that their father appreciates....." What a manly man you are Mr President.
The world miss you sir.
the greatest iconic of all time, Barack Obama. May God bless you and your family.
Oh you silly clown. You don't even know what you are saying. No one can be the "greatest iconic".....what the fk does that even mean?
This was great. But what really drove it home for me was that last part, where he said, "Thank you, guys" to the crew. Really shows he's genuine and the kindness isn't just a front or act for the camera.
Yes!
That prima ballerina bit from Obama was cute! 2:23 😊😊😊
Watching him makes me long for the days of sane-ity!
r B You mean sanity....
Once in a generation President. We appreciate President Obama.
What a great interview. Misty Copeland is amazing and shows her healthy body and is true role model. President Obama I miss you. It was great when we had a president who was smart, kind and a role model to the world!
awwww..... I love this for many reasons....one is I get to hear President Obama speak again.
Owaoo, such a powerful, strong, thoughtful interview. Why is is not shared and viewed a lot more???
And now you voted for a President who speaks like a 8year old kid
Florian Haffner I feel like this is an insult to 8 year olds LOL
We need more images like these two in our lives, on the screen, in our homes, neighborhoods, and workplaces.
I love Misty Copeland so much ❤️❤️❤️
What role models for society ! Excellence personified. Thank both of you for being and sharing who you are. May there be Peace & Love around the world. 💕
✊✊✊✊ Thank You SO MUCH
I'm not an American. But I can't deny I miss you Mr. President. The way he speaks is and has been an inspiration for me in those other parts of the world. Hope the world someday could stand up to your ideals
Misty Copeland is incredibly gorgeous. I would love to see her perform in a classical ballet.
Wow as a veteran and an American I appreciate that man. God bless him. And good luck to that young lady sky is the limit!
My two favourite people having an important conversation at a time skin colors remain a central theme in social evolution.
I am not even American and I miss him. So refreshing to see a leader talk
The future WILL remember....
Thank you for this video.
Beautiful interview. To see these stellar people from their inside view on life. I love you Mr. President! And Misty, too!
I love this! My two favorite people being interviewed together. I will forever love Obama.
A president that would discuss art, culture, history, science, life. Not a jerk like the one you have now that only talks about himself and has proven to be ignorant and nasty. The world misses Barack Obama, Mexico in particular!
I would argue the status of Misty Copeland in the realm of art.
discussed everything and knew nothing! just rap music.
I MISS OBAMA AND I WANNA CRY
Move to CA they are all going there
Great talk. Thank you!
Classy people!
Excellent interview. Thank you.
made me cry amazing thankyou!
lol, Misty is actually super tiny. In person, she appears even smaller than she does on screen.
Yeah, the fact that she is considered "large" really says a lot about the unhealthy standards of the ballet world. I can't imagine that being any smaller than that is healthy for anyone.
when they considered as “ large “ they went too many muscles and curves , not necessarily weight or body fat .
I am not an American but admire him hugely. He is definitely an inspirational person and great human being.
Honestly, though he is handsome and sharp as a tack, I can devotedly say that Barack Obama is one beautiful man, inside and out.
I love that man.
Such an incredible person. I always am in awe at listening to his words of peace and justice towards women and many more issues. A great President that will never be forgotten.
Misty is pure class.
I miss him!
not me
Both EXTRAORDINARY human beings!❤️❤️
I miss him so bad!
beautiful misty!! i see her at Steps all the time, she is wonderful!
We missed you 😶
Miss him everyday! What a time to be alive during his presidency. Simply the best!
those where good times??????!?!????!??????
Two of my all-time favorites! Misty Copeland and PRESIDENT Barack Obama. It doesn't get better than that.
Great interview!
Amazing interview.
Misty is such a gift to the art of ballet. As is Judith Jamison before her.
so inspiring Misty Copeland! Love you so much!💓💓 & I hope Barack Obama is again the President of the United States he's the best!
Good interview.
5:06 LMAOOOO
I could cry watching this. My heart is so hurt. I miss him so much. Misty and Obama, such grace, such class, such power. 🌹
My mom always told me you don't know what you had until you loose it when I lost her I felt and always feel my emptiness , I also felt when doing Obama 8 yrs I can't wait to how the new president would look like I wish I never hope that I miss him so bad
My favorite ballet dancet, Misty Copeland.
We need you back !
Great interview
LOVE IT! [Dragon Tales voice] Yes, they are biracial. Yes, they acknowledge that fact. They both had white moms that prepared them for the "real world" and not the world that they were from. It made a big difference. Take notes, interracial parents.
Shane C. yes
best ever...we miss you
My two favorite people sitting down around one table! So inspiring!
Sorry to the interviewer- actually I'm not sorry. You got to sit with them!
I can also relate to all this but personally I think, what doesn’t kill u makes u stronger just continue to shine👍
Excellent!
3 years ago?? how did i miss this video..such substance
I love them both💗
I would have Loved to be at that table listening to their wisdom.😊💝
This woman is so beautiful
In her dancing her body her
Voice she's just beautiful
I really love this Interview. Is this the whole thing?
Yaaaaaassssss! GIMME MORE!
you tough me a lot , may God bless you.
Why do I feel like this interview was an intro? I’m waiting for a full interview 😭 lovely exchange.
I love Obama...he's such an amazing man... I saw him speak in Germantown Pa...I'll never forget it...
Thank you
That last quote of his is everything
beautiful amazing people, lots of love and admiration from me!
Every time I hear Obama speak it gives me a sense of hope that things might be normal again.
Two very talented individuals and Misty is my role model 💖
April 2020.
Just dropped in to get a fix of normal, humour, intelligence. I miss him.
RIGHT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a real President, not the buffoon we have in the White House right now.
Julio Reguero Trump really isn’t

Both are such strong, beautiful, intelligent, human beings. 👏
