I've seen this clip where US President Barack Obama is being inteviewed by Jay Leno on The Tonight Show and I have to admit, I am pretty impressed. I was never into the US elections, because if something is overhyped, I get turned off -- and I thought that election was definitely overhyped.
After having watched this interview, however, I thought "Jeez, this guy has charm oozing out of every pore in his body." So yes, loads of charisma -- but that doesn't mean I think he will be a good president. He's quite a smooth one, that's for sure.
He's taken a bit of flak from critics about his "special olympics" joke during the show, but that just proves how hard it is to be a president -- you can't even crack a joke anymore. Tsk.
