Better than any of us deserved. Yeah he wasn't perfect, but he wasn't there to make money for himself by exploiting others, he just did his job to serve the people the best he could, and kept going after his term ended

A good time to plug his book on Palestine.

If only he could have done something about it as president.

Rest in Peace
