President to appear on "The View"

[teko]

The president will appear on the view on Thursday. I have heard criticism on the air waves about his decision to do so. What do you think?

Me thinks it is ingenious. No scripted questions, and not a left or right news/media broadcast. And more people watch these programs than the news. Some people are saying he is stepping down and disrespecting his position. I say good for him in stepping down into the muck with us little people and reaching us where we live. lol

Just because I do not care for Obama does not make me Un-American! I love this country and hate what he is doing to it!

Why  start a  forum like this  if both sides can't express their thoughts! I have never been treated so ugly on MH before!

Wow! That is all I can say!

You would love to see the American President make a fool of himself.......how nice and patriotic of you.  I was not a Bush fan and I hated when he made a fool of himself (and he did it often).  I know it really bothers some people that we have a smart president. lol

The other day I heard a Republican on tv say that the President needs to keep a respectful distance from the American people. WHAT ?????  Are you freaking kidding me !  

I'm with you Teko, I think it's a great thing.

I am not to sure how I feel about this! I like the fact that he has the chance to be grilled on a very publicly watched show but I fear that they are going to hold back and make him look great!

I am not a fan of him and I would love to see him make a fool of himself without having his que cards telling him what to say! But on the other hand there is so much going on in the U.S right now, does he really need to be "playing" on the View. He just got back from vacation, does the man plan on working!

Just my opinion....I just found out that I live in the Laziest state, so who knows!  : )
