Did Obama cite Mandela? Or did he just straight up plagiarize?
He put quotes around it, but did not directly or properly cite Mandela. Which means in a year or less, people will be attributing this quote to Obama. That seems about right.
ETA: Apparently it's a 3 part tweet and he did not cite to Mandela except at the end. The link above is just the first part.
Great for him that he can't come up with his own material. Of course, after 8 years of trying to emulate Saul Alinsky, David Ayers and Karl Marx, who would expect any different?

The fake news purveyors here have repeatedly said that he plagiarized. This is despite the fact that he specifically attributed the quote to him. It was a series of three connected tweets then signed Nelson Mandela

I really should change my avatar to Obama. So much fun to be hard. Like insta-melt.

He must have been reading it off of a teleprompter while keying it in.

So what was the tweet?
A quote from someone else.
Big accomplishment.

I love the fact that Obama birthed the Trump presidency and Hillary delivered it.

I honestly didn't know , or care. Would have been funny had he just plagiarized it though to be honest.

I'm sure this is only funny because trumpkins are pretending that Obama is touting this as some big accomplishment. Anything to stay angry.

Quote is bullshite, I hate that quote. There is a large portion of racism that is inborn.

Your post is bullshite. Kids are a product of their upbringing. They don't think it's wrong to play with a kid of another race until someone tells them it is.
