FILE - In this Oct. 9, 2016 file photo, President Barack Obama, wearing sunglasses, waves while boarding Air Force One before leaving O'Hare International Airport in Chicago. From his campaign fist bump to his theatrical mic drop at the last White House correspondents’ dinner, Barack Obama ruled as America’s pop culture president. His two terms played out like a running chronicle of the trends of our times: slow-jamming the news with Jimmy Fallon, reading mean tweets with Jimmy Kimmel, filling out his NCAA basketball bracket on ESPN, cruising with Jerry Seinfeld on “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.” (AP Photo/Paul Beaty, File)
