Obama Deserves a Profile in Courage Award As Much As He Deserves His Nobel Prize

Tonight former President Barack Obama was bestowed with the Profile in Courage Award at the JFK Presidential Library & Museum.

He deserves a Profile in Courage Award about as much as he deserved his Nobel Peace Prize.

According to the JFK Library:

The award recognizes a public official (or officials) at the federal, state or local level whose actions demonstrate the qualities of politically courageous leadership in the spirit of Profiles in Courage, President Kennedy’s 1957 Pulitzer prize-winning book, which recounts the stories of eight U.S. Senators who risked their careers by embracing unpopular positions for the greater good.
When did Barack Obama ever risk his career by embracing an unpopular position?

Obama isn't the only former President to receive the Award. Gerald Ford received it in 2001 while George H.W. Bush received it in 2014. In the case of Ford there was his pardoning of Richard Nixon.

Of course, the Kennedys are the first family of American liberalism and as such this is more at dig at President Trump than it is about anything Obama actually achieved. His prepared remarks focused on Trump's efforts to reverse Obamacare.

It very much remains to be seen whether Trumpcare will be an improvement over Obamacare and those who gained health insurance are understandably anxious. But the fact that Obama's minions bragged in their lies about "if you like your health insurance, you can keep your health insurance".

In the past, the Kennedy family has honored deserving recipients such as John Lewis in 2001 or in 2002 when they honored the FDNY, NYPD and the U.S. military following the 9/11 attacks or former Ukraine President Victor Yushchenko in 2005 following the Orange Revolution. I don't think Barack Obama possesses an ounce of their courage.
