I can imagine Obama himself getting a chuckle from it. He's not thin-skinned like someone we know.

They don't try to make them "deep fakes" -- it's obvious that the video is manipulated and that makes it fun snark.

Thanks for the Doobie!

Whoa did we ever love the name of those Brothers' in 1970!

It seemed like the lyrics were right up President Obama's alley.. I hope he gets to see it.. I think it's Awesome! So creative with digital whom all ever made it for us.

The only version I ever heard on the radio was by Dobie Gray:



According to wikipedia, there were a lot of people who recorded that song and I never knew about any of them. Maybe I need to get out more.

The Doobies came up on youtube.. that's the version I remember.

Thanks for Dobie's version.. I remember the voice but not his name.. but that's what we have google for. Looks like he recorded it in 1969.. about 4 years before the Doobies..
