ABOUT JON FAVREAU: Described by President Obama as his ‘mind-reader’, Jon Favreau was hired as Obama's speechwriter shortly after his election to the US Senate in 2004, and subsequently appointed Director of Speechwriting following Obama's presidential election.
Favreau was the chief writer of Obama's inauguration speech, resulting in TIME magazine naming him one of the '100 Most Influential People in the World'. Having left the White House in 2013, he is currently pursuing a career in screenwriting and private sector consulting.
ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.

The birth of Simba and presenting him with the sunlight beaming down on the cub, as Obama's birth video was one of the funniest jokes he ever told. Well, the other Trump jokes Obama told the earlier WH Corresponders' Dinner. All very, very clever! Obama has to be the best and most eloquent POTUS ever. You're so right, John-- that humor, and the ability to have perfect comedic timing in addition to Obama's style, eloquence, and brilliance is something very special.☮💙

Been meaning to watch this for some time and finally got around to it. It is an interesting talk with good questions for the most part. Favreau, as one would expect from a wordsmith, is quite articulate and a joy to listen to. And it is especially interesting watching this a year and a bit since Trump entered the White House and really being able to see the stark differences between the visions for America and its governance and the approach to carrying out the duties of the presidency between Obama and Trump. And those differences could not be clearer. Whereas Obama espoused an open, clear, far-sighted, uplifting vision of and for the country that calls it to aspire and to be its better self and strove to achieve that, with Trump it is small, weak, partisan, divisive and petty. America and the world are the poorer for Trump's ascent to power.

Trump is ugly on the inside as well as outside. You can surgically correct the outside but changing on the inside (especially if your over 70) takes hard work and that shouldn't be done when your President of the US. The only thing Trump breeds is hate. Pure and simple hate. Nothing he has ever said or done is encouraging or hopeful. Oh God, what has happened to the US???

@Danny B You are such a total bs artist. No one needed "Obama" to give the United States: Trump - out of ALLL the 3 million republicans who ran for President against Trump. Trump was chosen b/c of his racist rhetoric and that has been displayed time and again by the American public who are his base - and no well-woven bs answer like yours is going to convince people of your constant lies.

Exceptional view into the inner workings of the Obama White House from a central figure to the processes. Well done.

WHen President Obama sang Amazing Grace it inspired Transatlantic Folksinger Zoe Mulford to write a song called "When My President Sang Amazing Grace". It has been made into a children's book, been sung by Joan Baez in her farewell tour, and loved by many who have heard it. Obama inspired so many with what he did that day.
