VIDEO: WWII Veterans Completely Humiliate Obama, How He Reacts Is Pathetic Just one week after returning from a vacation in Marthas Vineyard, President Obama jumped on a plane to Charlotte, N.C. to deliver a speech at the American Legions national conversation. The speech proved to be unlike any the president had given before. Many times throughout the speech, Obama paused, obviously anticipating applause and acknowledgement from the audience. Instead, he the veterans in the room left him only with an awkward silence. A video of the incident shows the president entering a state of desperation, as he scrambles to find common ground with the audience. In fact, the most heartening reaction he got from the audience was after he claimed, We will do what is necessary to those who harm Americansto go after those who harm Americans. The majority of Obamas speech focused on the militarys continued efforts in Afghanistan, which he promised to bring to a responsible end. He also spoke out about the recent beheading of James Foley, the photojournalist who was captured and publicly murdered by an ISIS fighter. What do you think? Would you clap for Obama?
