5. I think you're right.
There's a social-psychological theory called "impression management" that may apply.

4. Barack's songs
I'm more into classic American popular music than most people, but I like a couple of songs on Obama's list. I can really picture him dancing to "THINK". YAY! Remember how cool Aretha and crew performed it in the Blues bothers movie?

I'd love to see Obama in shades and a blues brother hat! LOL

Brilliant choice. Nobody, nobody, nobody sings like Aretha. Nobody.

7. I love these lists. There is no way that's even remotely close to accurate.
Though Sinnerman is awesome.
