Oh,Peter Baumgartner Barack Obama please don't leave us. We still need you in our lives.

In a bid to persuade people to go out and vote, Obama left the audience with a teary story "for the young people here."
"When I ran for the presidency in '08 -- the truth is not a lot of people gave me a chance," he started off.
"I was a skinny guy with a funny name. When I look back at the pictures I look really young," he jokes, adding that "the odds just weren't for us."
But one episode made him change his mind, helping shift the outlook early in his campaign.
He recalls a long drive in the rain to a campaign event in Greenwood, South Carolina, where he had to meet 20 groggy supporters in order to keep a promise he made one month before.
One of the people, though, was a member of the local NAACP and a private detective who galvanised the group by saying "FIRED UP, READY TO GO" in a call-and-response riff.
The rest is history:
"It just goes to show you, how one voice can change a room. And if it can change a room, it can change a city. And if it can change a city, it can change a state. And if it can change a state, it can change a nation. And if it can change a nation, it can change the world."
(YOU'RE NOT CRYING, I'M CRYING.)
We'll miss you, Barack.
