Obama’s Song: The Very Model Of A Modern U.S. President

Don’t listen to the Obama haters. They tend to hate a lot of things and people anyway. And the fact is, he and the Democrats have kept America from falling into an economic abyss, pushed through the beginnings of health care reform, increased the use of online forums to communicate with the general public and championed regular people far more than the last administration. With all of the negative political rhetoric swirling about the media, I find that humor can be both charming and disarming in terms of looking at politics in a more engaging and positive light. The following short musical clip, created by Ronnie Butler, allows President Obama (as played by Butler) to offer a rebuttal to his detractors in the form of a tune inspired by the Gilbert and Sullivan number “The Major-General’s Song” from The Pirates Of Penzance. As one YouTube commenter noted, you don’t have to be a fan of the President to love this hilarious clip.
