Oh wow, look at him getting votes by being a popular celebrity president.

On an unrelated note, is it just me or are some of these images kind of hilarious?

What a devious tactic!

That would be like a Hollywood actor running for president. We'd never tolerate such a thing.

And, my goodness, doing it for "free" of all things.

Doesn't he know that votes are to be earned through getting job creators to pay for them?

Just who does this guy think he is?

Pres. Obama interacting with people he looks so genuine. He shows that he actually wants to hear what they have to say and engages them. On the other hand Rmoney looks like he is just going through the motions.
