6. I would rather watch him keep his promises to the American people

Rather than "mouth" some song.
"The coolest president ever"? Not quiet what he turned out to be.

10. I loved watching him and the first lady at the kennedy center honors this year. I couldn't find a

video with her singing the words, like I saw on the actual show, but they're kickin' it when Beth Hart and Jeff Beck do I'd Rather Go Blind in tribute to honoree Buddy Guy. The second song is the finale with Gary Clarke Jr, Bonnie Raitt, and Tracey Chapman singing Sweet Home Chicago. The Pres & First Lady are at 2:40 and about 6:00

One of the best concerts ever was when I was front row for Buddy Guy and Robert Cray playing the Ryman Auditorium about 5 yrs ago. The acoustics are so good there.
