You so right there I live in Auckland Central when Obama arrived there were cops everywhere I loved it it was the same when we had the Apac simmit over here in 1995 bill Clinton was president then Jenny Shipley was prime minister of new Zealand then I recorded everything dates times and year thats the same with Obama they both stayed at the hotel across the road from the police station last year 2018 we had the president from the Philippines visiting New Zealand if you have a look on line you'll see kids take a photo of him in Queen Street and president trump will be here in Auckland new Zealand in 2021 for the Apac Summit meeting if he is still president then
You definitely got that right back in the 1970s and the 1980s Americans always said we will never have a black man as our President and 39 years later they got one but it will be alsome if they ever get another one in the future
C Gall - I am an American citizen who loves Obama. I am currently moving to Chapala, Jalisco, to spend the remainder of my life there, away from the orange demagogue and many blinded people who support walls instead of breaking them down. Viva México :o) Estoy en el proceso de mudarme a Chapala, Jalisco, por el resto teórico de mi vida, lejos del demagogo en la Casa Naranja. Buenos suerte, amiga o amigo :o)
@@myninjamyninja375 true but don't forget he was ordered by a much higher elite s this boss .can't you people see pass them leaders. There boss. Look for him
Oh doesn't he look proud, like hes one of us. Many celebrities have come, and they looked scared. This man, soaked it all it. Thank you President Barak Obama!
As a kid i hated waiting through the welcoming onto marae (except the womens part they stole my heart everytime ) but now im older i recognise that its a privilege to experience even 1 of them
Whether you liked him or not he was always pretty cool and he always spoke and carried himself in a dignified manner. For me its about mannerisms and this guy has it. All that other stuff is up to you.
Obama was given the respect he deserves as a former president. Bush and Trump would also receive the same treatment if they also came here. Its about manners and giving due respect.
@@kiwibird8441 no they weren't. NZ wasn't converted to Christianity, maybe somewhere but definitely not the whole country and definitely not the same extent as Fijians, togans, and Samoans. NZ still has its traditional beliefs and they are more respected than stupied Jesus
Yes and thats the prime minister Jacinda with her husband singing to him. Well maybe not the hubby as he looks lost but whatever that is How great tho art
When the British came it took long time to get Māori to convert. Church songs was one way Māori could connect as we understood the presence of gods and also believed singing through voice can communicate with gods and spirits. Overtime Christianity took over Māori gods though. But you hear some of old Māori songs originate from the early Christian/Catholic tradition.
Us pacific islanders we are savages! We will welcome you with reluctance but once we've accepted you only then will you see the softness of our hearts.
Hey keyboard warrior! type all you can it wouldn't change a damn thing. yesterday he was at NZ, today, he came to visit us in Australia. And, you can bet it, that we welcomed our Hero here. Even our PM went to greet him in his hotel before meeting him at the dinner where he was to present a speech. keep whining, while President Obama (according to PM Turnbull) keeps winning. Oh, how I wish you could see the standing ovation from people at the opera house earlier today. Peace from the MOST HIGH God, be with him and his family forever. Can i get an Amen, guys?
The one of many Americans that were based in New Zealand to help defend New Zealand against the Japanese in World War 2 was also a good guy. Without him (he belonged by the way to colonisation) maoris would not be able to celebrate their many traditions. They would be too busy working in the rice fields.
This is just stupid. As a Maori even i believe this is outdated and just ridiculous. If the government is going to make us Maori people do a stupid outdated Maori performance to make New Zealand look more "cultural". I want the government to make white kiwi people do traditional Scottish dancing and ballet to greet incoming visitors too. Stupid.
The one world ruler, of the new world order, has already gone out from the US, after his short space as president, after the first six before him, and now we are just waiting for him to come back as the eighth, who will be the one world ruler. of the new world order, then the two witnesses Moses and Elijah will come into power, and the tribulation of the saints will begin. Revelation 17 : 10 : 11 (KJV) 10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. 11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 1. Gerald Rudolph Ford. 2. James Earl Carter, Jr. 3. Ronald Wilson Reagan. 4. George Herbert Walker Bush. 5. William Jefferson Clinton. 6. George Walker Bush. 7. Barack Hussein Obama.... and even he is the eighth yet to come, who will be seen as the one world ruler. of the new world order.
nz trucker I am a Kiwi too, I to thought Obama may be good but I have been shocked just how Obama is a sheep in wolfs clothing, look above on my comment on search sights.
