There's a little swagger there, but then he pulls back with a charming look of humility. No wonder Michelle fell for his charms.

The person who posted the video at YouTube had to block comments there because "...I got bored reading all the racist bile from YouTube's Ron Paul mob and Tea Party creatures - life's waaaaaay too short to be dealing with that level of hate!"

I'm glad the racists were cut off but it's depressing to see that this had to be done.

It is one of those places people can and do spew their hate freely. It's that way even on kitten vids.

That's the only thing they ever post on YT. What a convincing argument, right?
