Pres.Obama: 3-Pointer & Some Change!!!

April 6, 2010 Front Page 3 Comments

I’m inside Suite, a nice club/lounge in Milwaukee, with Biko at the bar looking at the big screen and there’s President Obama & CBS Sports, Clark Kellogg playing a custom game of HORSE at the White House. As a smile comes across my face, I began to ponder, is it me, or does President Obama remind you of yourself? Whether you’re an African American male or Caucasian female, it’s safe to say that our current President is more down to earth than other President we’ve experienced.

Or maybe I just can’t relate to 60 year old white guys with money and bombs on deck. I’ll tell you one thing, at the 3:57 mark of this video, the President yells out’ “WAPP” before making his shot and that’s totally me. I, myself, love to talk s*%@ before completing a shot or anything for that matter. In fact, I’m sure “Wapp” is a slang terminology that could’ve only derived from the urban demographic. And for the naysayers that can’t appreciate the President being a normal guy and wondering why he isn’t focusing on current events (like the Final Four), he jokingly addresses it by his comments made after a successful shot that followed a few missed ones, “I’m not going down easy, I got a few other things on my mind.” HAHA, now, I can def. respect that Mr. Pres!!!

    Obama’s got bombs on deck too!!

  2. President Obama is the only president where food stamps were used in his family. He has dealt with many of the problems that average Americans have. He went through the same cycle that I and my sister did. Our parents (from the Depression generation) worked really hard to set us up for a good college education– access to a better life. Same for Michelle Obama– they get what the rest of us are dealing with in day to day living.
