Washington Post


The president emerged from behind a curtain, to hearty cheers from the student crowd, and said: “I’m president Barack Obama, and I, too, want to slow-jam the news.”

It's a pretty cool and funny skit....but isn't this really below the office, even by his standards? I suppose with the dumbing-down of America it only makes sense for politicians to take their campaigning to late-night talk shows.

Hopefully in November the people enable Obama to pursue his dream of being a celebrity full-time.

He's already won the black vote, now he's going for the ignorant youth old enough to vote.

This is what's wrong with our country.

No worthwhile president should ever preform or entertain on a late-night talk show.

He only has until November anyway. Then everyone can whine about the next guy in office until he "rights the ship."

I'm not fan of Obama, but it always brings a chuckle when people solely blame him. You know we have this thing called congress?

At this point you can classify it as creative campaigning toward young voters. Every president is in campaign mode at this point along the way.
