Barack Obama’s golf swing reveals he’s an athlete, a duffer and fun to play with By Michael Bamberger Senior Writer, Sports Illustrated Published: December 24, 2008 Golf.com has performed an important service. It has posted five photographs, taken by AP photographer Gerald Herbert, that shows President-elect Barack Obama on vacation in Hawaii playing golf. This is invaluable as we all know that nothing, not even a CNN special called “Obama Revealed,” reveals the soul as ruthlessly and efficiently as how one plays the old Scottish game. John F. Kennedy nearly made a hole-in-one on the short par-3 15th at Cypress Point (the best-smelling hole in all of golf, if you like the mix of eucalyptus and brackish ocean water) while running for the presidency in 1960. Kennedy, considered by presidential golfing historians to be by far the most skilled of our golf-playing presidents, was relieved to see the ball stay out. He was trying to succeed Dwight Eisenhower as president, and not as First Golfer. The game then wasn’t the populist activity it has become. Kennedy, foolishly, allowed himself to be photographed taking a golf swing in fancy loafers, no socks. Still, he won West Virginia. But Obama does not have to run from his golf.

Conservative talk radio was screaming that the president and the first Latina to be picked as a Supreme Court justice: Racist! In later months, the US Senate approval the confirmation of the first Hispanic woman to hold the bench. GM went through bankruptcy. The president ordered the firing of the GM executives who were responsible for the economic failure of the American car company. Former presidential candidate Alan Keyes and his lawyer (who will be explained in later videos) Orly Taitz have protested the president’s decision to attend the Notre Dame Commencement. President Obama gave the green light to have Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Former President Bill Clinton help in releasing journalists Roxanna Saberi, Euna Li and Laura Ling from custody in Iran and North Korea. Mancow Muller, a Chicago conservative talk show host wanted to prove that waterboarding isn’t torture! With assistance from military trainers, he tried it out! And he didn’t like it. Conservative talk radio host and Fox News commentator Sean Hannity taunted President Obama over the issue. And even dared to try it. Sadly, he hasn’t. Thanks to the …
