Props to Obama for doing it, would like to see him answer in less presidential manner though (most of his answers don't say anything we haven't heard from him or others politicians before). | ||

It is also quite the libertarian heaven as well. | ||

gobearss How do you balance family life and hobbies with, well, being the POTUS? permalink PresidentObamaObama It's hard - truthfully the main thing other than work is just making sure that I'm spending enough time with michelle and the girls. The big advantage I have is that I live above the store - so I have no commute! So we make sure that when I'm in DC I never miss dinner with them at 6:30 pm - even if I have to go back down to the Oval for work later in the evening. I do work out every morning as well, and try to get a basketball or golf game in on the weekends just to get out of the bubble. Speaking of balance, though, I need to get going so I'm back in DC in time for dinner. But I want to thank everybody at reddit for participating - this is an example of how technology and the internet can empower the sorts of conversations that strengthen our democracy over the long run. AND REMEMBER TO VOTE IN NOVEMBER - if you need to know how to register, go to Gottaregister.com. By the way, if you want to know what I think about this whole reddit experience - NOT BAD! And then the internet imploded. | ||

For the love of god don't give him any ideas. He is entitled to his opinion, but should he be doing it from a account also used for mlg pr? It seems like a bad idea. | ||

Internet freedom is something I know you all care passionately about; I do too. We will fight hard to make sure that the internet remains the open forum for everybody - from those who are expressing an idea to those to want to start a business. And although there will be occasional disagreements on the details of various legislative proposals, I won't stray from that principle - and it will be reflected in the platform. This actually doesn't sound like he is really for a totally free internet. Makes me worry a bit for the USA folks. | ||

The only exception is when someons says he's libertarian says republicans are worse than democrats (actually, that's also my case), then he gets upvoted. Otherwise there isn't a day when they don't shit on some republican. | ||

Hard to be a republican after the great George W. bush left a legacy of amazing decisions. I guess the bought part is unfair, democrats are generally bought as well. | ||
