3. Isn't it amazing how Presidential Obama looks
I think he needed to keep reminding the reporters that he is not actually President yet I'm with Letterman who jokingly suggested that Obama take office early How did Americans allow such a mentally challenged person like W in the White House?

8. When he said that he "had been reading some Lincoln"
the dirt hit my eye. Where in the hell did the meme "somebody to have a beer with" become a good thing in a President? I want the smartest man or women going.

9. He will make it ''cool" to be smart - kids will want to be like him and
