I was upset, too. I hate our meddling in other countries' affairs and thought Obama was better than that.

Shitty Britties should just do what they're told and stop whingeing.
We're in charge, and have been for nearly a century.

That sounds pretty nationalistic and you know what I think of nationalism, especially ours.

This is a British internal affair and Obama should butt out.

Obviously we are going to prioritize trade deals with the entire EU over trade deals with Britain individually.

The UK doesn't have a codified constitution, but it does have a constitution.

It's a world trade affair and he who pays the piper, calls the tune.
I know that's an alien concept for you.

A constitution is just the set of rules and traditions that make up a societies governing structure. A constitution doesn't even have to be written, it can just be a set of traditions (like the Roman constitution). The UK's constitution is partially written, it's just not strictly codified into a single document like the US cosntitution. There are unwritten parts (like the tradition of the monarch delegating much of their authority to the elected leaders). But I would argue that there are essentially unwritten parts of the US constitution as well (like the entire deal with the US supreme court having the sole authority to interpret the constitution, it's never mentioned in the codified US constitution or even written anywhere in our law explicitly).

This President is last man we should heed
The tone was patronising, the language menacing – and the message not only hypocritical but, frankly, insulting. Certainly, Barack Obama has every right to say he thinks it’s in America’s best interests for Britain to remain in the EU, if that is what he believes. But he has no business to come here and preach that submission to Brussels is good for the people of the UK.
By arguing that a Britain outside the EU would be at the ‘back of the queue’ for a trade deal, to Number 10’s delight, Mr Obama displayed contempt for voters and left little doubt that he sees the special relationship as a one-way street. Has he forgotten he leads a nation founded to proclaim independence from overseas control, whose citizens died for the right to make their own laws?
Will he not admit that the US wouldn’t agree in a million years to join a body like the EU, putting the Supreme Court in Washington under the thumb of foreign judges? Or that freedom-loving America wouldn’t tolerate for a second the statist edicts spewing daily from Brussels? Why, then, does he abuse the UK’s hospitality by urging Britons to remain in a relationship his own people would never countenance?
Mr Obama’s grasp of history is shaky, too, if he believes the EU can take credit for seven decades of relative peace. Yes, a new spirit of friendship between European nations sprang up after 1945. But this had far more to do with memories of the horrors of two world wars than with any Brussels institution. No, the true peacekeeper has surely been Nato, whose shield protected the continent from the Soviet Union’s might during the Cold War – while our intelligence-sharing arrangements, on which our security from terrorism depend, have nothing to do with the EU.
Which brings us to Mr Obama’s own sorry record as Commander-in-Chief and architect of America’s foreign policy. This is the man who made way for the rise of IS by his reckless withdrawal from Iraq. He has failed even to honour his pledge to close Guantanamo Bay. And his chief foreign policy ‘success’ has been a deal with terrorist-sponsoring Iran. In the spirit of ‘friends who have no fear of each other’, to borrow his words, aren’t we entitled to ask why Britain should take advice from this President on how to conduct our own affairs?

The real monarch of the UK is always POTUS
It's none of Obama's business what the Brits do.
Personally, I don't care if the Brits stay or go...they have to live with their decision, not me.

Dear Mr Obama, shove your fuckin' trade up your fuckin' arse. We weren't at the back of the queue when you needed us on operations, twice in Iraq, and then again in Afghanistan. I guess it's only a " special relationship " when it suits America.
If you need help in future, you can always call on Germany, winners of so many wars, or Italy, but only if you're already winning before you invite them, and of course, the mighty French, but give them some notice, so they can get their military production running at full strength, by putting their white flag factories onto three shifts. Good luck with that.
Oh, and just as a little P.S.
The last time you went to war without us, the Viet Cong handed you your arse on a plate

Zounds ! Yon Foolish arse doth offend us with his Magnum Carter !
Sure, that's the moronic Brits view of a ' Constitution '. The lack of a real Constitution is applauded by Fools , such as yourself, because it leaves the British working classes without rights, you exploitative rat.
You're so dopey and duped by your ' betters ' that you even accept the imposition of American Republican political workers into the heart of government. Check out, for example, the plant in the Brit Defence Department;
A UK Republican criticizing Obama ? Hypocrisy. You're a dupe. Fool.
You're even dumb enough to heap praises on this plant over in the thread you banned me from commenting on, you shit-scared Tory twazzock;

The EU is not even remotely comparable. The EU Commission is 100% comprised of unelected, and unelectable, failed politicians in their own countries. That's why politicians in Europe love it so much as they can always have another career when their national electorates no longer want them. I mean, for fuck's sake Juncker himself is a washed corrupt arsehole from Luxembourg! Not one of you on here appears to have the slightest knowledge as to how the EU works. Their annual accounts have not been passed by the auditors for 20 years because it is so corrupt.
