President Barack Obama sounded like Kanye West as his confidence rang through during a Thursday interview with Univision Radio.

Regarding his prospects for re-election, Obama told the radio show host that he has another five years left in his presidency.
When asked why he has not kept his promises on immigration reform he responded:
“My presidency is not over. I’ve got another five years coming up, we’re going to get this done.”
He also suggested that the Latino community recognized that his efforts to pass reform had been blocked by Republicans in Congress.
“Unfortunately, the Republican side, which used to at least give lip service to immigration reform, now they’ve gone completely to a different place, and have shown themselves unwilling to talk at all about any sensible solutions to this issue, and we’re going to have to just keep up the pressure until they act.”
Pressed again about whether he had broken his promise, Obama said there was a limit to what the Executive Branch could accomplish.
“I would have only broken my promise if I hadn’t tried. But ultimately, I’m one man. You know, we live in a democracy. We don’t live in a monarchy. I’m not the king.”
If Obama could be around for another 10 years, then that would be awesome!
