From the Telegraph comes 50 things about Obama you might not know. Here are the two most pertinent:
• His favourite music includes Miles Davis, Bob Dylan, Bach and The Fugees
• He took Michelle to see the Spike Lee film Do The Right Thing on their first date
OMFG. Seriously. Has there ever been a President as cool as this? Take a second to let that list of artists soak in. Miles Davis. Bob Dylan. Bach. [Freakin' Bach!]. The Fugees. Now that’s street cred. I predict that this list of bands will do more to raise our international image than any other single thing he does over the next couple of months.
In related news, the White House service staff are already reporting that it will be a nice change from the endless loops of Veggie Tales songs and Dennis the Menace cartoons.
