I don't know him, but genuinely want someone to surprise him big. After seeing this. Well people may think he is a failure but no one knows how life could be, as the saying goes "we've all been kids before but no one has been an adult yet". May he get people to show him Love

@tuffguy_1 added:

Obama, i hope wofa has pension. As we show him love we wish to see him comfortable when he finally decides to retire. If wofa doesn't, i hope there's a way we can help him so we don't have to open gofundme for wofa in the near future.
