The Great Seal of the Pretentious Elite

Barack "I have delusions that I'm already the President" Obama had the following symbol before him at a recent meeting with Democratic governors:

obama seal


"Vero Possumus", a faux Latin rendering for “Yes, we can” as its motto, the Great Seal of Obama screams pretentious narcissism.

But, I'm thinking the folks who show up here are a pretty creative bunch, so here’s your chance to come up with your own motto: What would you suggest for Obama’s Trained, er, Great Seal?

(Extra points for pretentious Latin phrases!)

To get you started, here’s mine: "Praetensa Maximus" What’s yours?

Update: Mickey Kaus over at Slate had this to say:
Is Obama's new faux-presidential, alternative-reality seal his "Mission Accomplished"? If you wanted to emphasize to voters that the Democrats' nominee is a bit stuck up, it would be hard to do better. I suppose he could start requiring reporters to stand when he enters the room.
