It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

“We had no choice but to make the lady that called the disabled Black kid the n-word rich, because you kept insisting Black people deserved to be treated as equals.”

Sesame Street had him pegged back in 1988.
