So President Obama was a guest the Jay Leno show this week. He gave a good-humored performance some critics have likened to that of a “sitcom dad” — witty yet square.
The question is, why? What did he have to gain from the apperance? The American presidency has not-too-arguably been further cheapened from the encounter (which I know was not a first for a sitting president), but it’s hard to see what the resulting benefit was.
Would it surprise you to see Obama appear in a Pepsi ad someday? It wouldn’t surprise me…
