Add this one to the presidential collection: the heart-shaped potato.
By the time Barack Obama came on stage to the taping of the "Late Show" on Monday, host David Letterman had offered up 10 reasons why in the world the president had agreed to do it. Among Letterman's theories: Obama said yes without thinking about it, or as Letterman put it, "Like Bush did with Iraq."
But Obama had other ideas. It turns out he was listening when Letterman had bantered with a woman in the audience who brought — yes — a potato in the shape of a heart to the show. Obama told Letterman: "The main reason I'm here? I want to see that heart-shaped potato." The woman tossed the potato to Letterman. She agreed to let Obama keep it. Said the president: "This is remarkable."
This the meaning between Obama and potatos. Yes, no one can deny Obama’s achievements after he was elected as the newest president. I like Obama very much. You know, he is always energetic 、compassionate and considerate.To show my support to Obama, I have marked words”Obama”on one of my lanyards . I will wear this lanyard everywhtere I go .
In my opinion, Obama also had his most irreverent answer yet on the question of whether some of the vitriolic reaction to his health care plan is driven at least partly by racism. "First of all, I think it's important to realize that I was actually black before the election," Obama said to huge laughs from Letterman and the audience.
On the economy, Obama offered a sober prediction as the country deals with 9.7 percent unemployment, the worst level since 1983. He said he expects unemployment will be a "big problem" for at least another year. But he also said the economy will rebound even stronger.
As for the war in Afghanistan, Obama said he knows some people want him to bring troops home, and others are calling for him to increase U.S. force levels to combat the insurgency. The top U.S. commander there is warning the war could be lost without more troops.
Tomorrow starts Obama's main mission in New York: His participation in the United Nations General Assembly.  Do you appreciate Obama’s temperament and his way to solve problems? Let’s share our own feelings together!
