Nice Pants
I'm not really sure how to react to this video from CNN of Barack Obama wearing blue jeans (OMG!!!1 BLUE JEANS!!!1). The women of the media seem to be obsessed to an unhealthy degree. And Obama seems to be enjoying the attention as well.
Is America ready for denim?

If he's reaching out to Hillary's "people" then it should be Wrangler - the jeans of Brett Favre!

Solid work Barack. I think they're boot cut too. Stylin'. . . . Visuals (or "Optics") are wicked important. Not to the pandering degree, but it's a necessity.

I read once that FoxNews and HeadlineNews were designed to be quickly and easily viewed as you're walking fast through an airport.
Jeans communicates "Hey, I'm a regular dude" as you're walking through an airport. :)
