Obama can have a spontanous conversation if he wants, but what comes out of his mouth is not what people like to hear, like

"spread the wealth around" and more socialist B.S.....

Obama is going to be stressed out sooner than later, because he has to watch every word he is saying, to avoid more damage than his governement already has caused.

But I don't think we have to feel sorry for the man and his family who watched the Super Bowl in the company of Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez in the White House.

Because he cannot do so without letting his true feelings come out.

Like "my...uh grandmother was a typical...uh...white...ah....person".

Or to "Joe the Plumber". When he said he wanted to "spread the wealth around".

Or in San Francisco when he thought he wasn't being recorded and said...

“You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them,” Obama said. “And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

"This is one of the reasons that Fundie religion has become so widespread in recent times. It used to be that people were a little more easy going about the religious section of their lives; take the family to church and then it’s either football games or the golf course, where those favored by God, go to commune with what Nature is supposed to look like, once she understands the duties of a submissive bottom. Golf courses and cemeteries have a lot in common and I’ve long believed they should be combined in symbiotic interplay for the best of both worlds."

Poor fella.
Obama can always go back to being a community organizer and talk his radical smack to a receptive audience.

He can be spontaneous to his heart's content on the day after inauguration day 2013.

Mr teleprompter in the kindergarden class can't be spontaneous?

What is his lawyers definition of spontaneous?

Surely he cannot be worried about contradicting himself as his media minions constantly dissolve his past.

He has been spontaneous all we wants to behind closed doors where he feels most comfortable.

In other words, everytime he let's down his guard and tells people what he really feels and believes, we realize he is not who he said he was.

Isn't that the epitomy of being a politicion (and/or an actor)?

The people who didn't vote for him already knew that he was fake....the ones who voted for him and now having a hard time paying their bills, might wake up sooner or later...some have awakened others are still asleep, but get their hand out in the mail and rather vote for him than for the person who will make them work for their money.

If Obama cannot have a spontaneous conversation because he is constantly hiding his core values and who he really is then that is his personal choice. He not only causes himself damage but he damages the country through his dishonesty.

The office of POTUS takes its toll on every occupant. It is obvious that it has taken its toll on Obama in very short order. Anyone notice how thin he is of late, the poor complexion (sallow) and unhealthy appearance under his eyes? Clearly he is stressed on a number of levels.
