Obama's visit to the UK : [details to follow] Is Barack a cool guy?

Asked by ucme (50047points) May 25th, 2011

Okay, here’s some footage of him playing table tennis with David Cameron…...who looks like a dick I have to say. I just think he’s a cool guy, for a president anyway. He’s often seen playing basketball & seems to be “one of the lads” at least from the outside looking in. What do you think? Cool or not?

Definitely cool. Very cool doing almost anything.

Obama is a politician. He may be cool in comparison with other politicians, but this does not make him cool, just less stiff than his peers.

I like him. I wish he was less willing to compromise but overall I am happy. I took time off work to volunteer for him in 2008 and will do the same in this round.

I think he is cool. When he speaks extemporaneously it is usually hilarious. The dude is funny, but measured.

He’s cool all right. Very relaxed in any company, a decent guy. We’ll swap you David Cameron for Barack O’Bama any day and throw in the Queen as well.

@jaytkay For some reason, I just don’t picture Newt Gingrich producing that same effect lol.

Cheers folks!
As I said, i’d certainly shoot some pool & down a few pints with the fella, given the chance.

@johnpowell I’ve watched that like 3 times already lol. Seth did the most damage, though, because he didn’t have to hold back. That was an epic moment. I almost felt bad for Trump, a little.

@Blueroses I think Kanye West is the a jackass popular music needs, the fact Obama commented was stupid.

Obama may be cool, but Putin is a badass

I guess he really does have a short memory after saying BP was going to have to pay! Now that is cool! Tell BP you will pay and then his men use BP! Morons

Cameron is a dick and Obama is cool.

By “cool”, do you mean destroying our country? Because, if so, yes. Very cool.

cockswain's avatar

Definitely cool. Funny too. And he’s a baller.

Blackberry's avatar

@jellyfish3232 Well, if you’re not into kenyan socialist revolutions, I guess it’s not that cool.
