I agree with the sentiment and I think that most people wish him well, but shouldn't the title of this post be "Former president pays tribute to John McCain"?

I assume that you know that Barack Obama is no longer the president?

Although it is normal to refer to all former presidents as Mr. President or President _____, when the term, "the president" is used it always refers to the current president.
