Imagine researching the 2008 election and your only video evidence were speeches and interviews of John McCain. The other guy would pop up occasionally.
Watching the President today, I was reminded of one of my favorite interviews. With the Des Moines Register in 2008. I've watched and shared it many times. It was just a Google search away. “Obama Des Moines Interview” usually gave a direct hit. I spent the morning trying to find it.
See if you remember it : White-haired man asks about Obama’s temperament. Obama says he keeps his cool and says Michelle would agree even when she’s yelling at him. He says he tries to understand an issue from opponent’s perspective. But if he senses they're tryimg to pull something on him, he will crush them. Laughs and says he's joking.
I cannot find this clip. I think it’s been taken down. ERASED from history.
