I bet Michelle is used to the fact that a lot of people are quite attracted to her husband. But the sexiest thing about President Obama is that he is madly in love with his wife.

(16,929 posts)feeling safer attending in Canada than here in the US because of the "wing-nuts" that have no clue about what leadership is about.
And isn't THAT sad?

(79,302 posts)Former President Barack Obama was in attendance for Sundays NBA Finals Game 2 in Toronto between the Raptors and the Golden State Warriors. He rolled up to Scotiabank Arena in a snazzy leather jacket and eventually took his seat alongside NBA commissioner Adam Silver.
While Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wasnt in attendance, the Toronto fans were more than ecstatic to see the 44th U.S. president.
Late in the second quarter, the in-arena presentation welcomed Obama and featured him on the videoboard. The fans responded with a raucous standing ovation and added an MVP chant.
