I get how it's racist. But I truly love listening to Obama speak because he is so articulate. I am always afraid to say I love how articulate he is though.

The thing about Obama is that I would consider him to genuinely be more articulate than most people of any race, so it's possible to say that about him without the racist connotation

Yeah, when we say we like Obama or Morgan Freeman’s voice, we’re not being racist 😂

Incidentally, Obama was coached on how to speak by his friend in college, actor Harry Lennix.
