https://news.grabien.com/story-watch-obama-refer-himself-119-times-during-hillary-nominatin
Addressing the Democratic National Convention on its penultimate night to lay out the case for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, President Obama began by recalling his political debut at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. He then described how his family has become so well known to America in the intervening years. He spoke of his time in office, how the presidency has physically aged him, but how his daughters euphemistically note he now looks more "mature."
He spoke of everything he is proud to have achieved -- passing ObamaCare, expanding clean energy production, reducing consumption of foreign oil, passing the Iran deal, bringing troops home, killing bin Laden.
He spoke of how inspired he's become meeting Americans of all stripes. He spoke of his optimism. He spoke of the values he imparted from his family.
If it's starting to sound like Obama talked a lot about himself, that’s because he did.
In total, we counted 119 times Obama referred to himself during his speech ostensibly about Hillary Clinton.
Note that in arriving at this calculation, we included mentions of "we" when he was clearly including himself as part of the plural pronoun; the many uses of "we" in referring to America at large were not included. "Me," "myself," "our" and his third-person reference to "a half Kenyan grandson" were also included.
Did we miscount? Feel free to let us know in the comments section.

That MIGHT be relevant except for the fact that the piece of shit in the white house never built a thing but a house of lies and the nominee for President built things his entire adult life.

That is pretty funny. Has anyone ever counted references to himself in a Trump speech? Trump is all about himself and reminds you frequently.

Jeff is a one trick pony. He reminds me of a derelict sitting on a park bench arguing with himself and taking swings at the air around him.

So, is every post you make specifically calculated to demonstrate projection, or are you really THAT clueless?

Jeff must be a yuuuge Erick Erickson fan. Never miss taking a shot at Trump even though he trounced Cruz. If Cruz was so fuching great, how come he didn't seem to catch on?

Having now watched the organization of the GOP in running a convention and the organization of the Dems in running a convention, I am even more certain that the burdens of the presidency will weight not at all on Trump's shoulders as he will go down in flames. The only real question is whether he takes the GOP's hold on the Senate with him. I hope not as it will be the only check on Hillary's naming a justice to the SCOTUS who will be the vote to gut DC v. Heller, etc.

Never heard of him.
Wasn't a Cruz guy either.

Im surprised he didn't award himself the medal for "Courageous Restraint" right on stage.
