How can you not like this guy? Agree with his policies or not, you can't deny that he's a humble guy.

Washington (CNN) - President Obama seemingly preoccupied forgot one piece of protocol as he boarded Marine One on his way to Annapolis Friday.
Obama walked past the Marine at the bottom of the helicopter's stairs and didn't give the traditional salute.
Realizing his mistake upon entering Marine One the president pivoted in the doorway, jogged back down, shook hands and spoke briefly with the Marine, before boarding the helicopter for a second time.

1. I've got things to do today and don't have time to list all the (many) reasons I don't like this guy.

2. He is not a humble guy.

3. I don't like seeing a President of the United States chewing gum in public. I've seen him do it many times.

4. I'm glad that he came back down the steps to address the marine.

So?

Mitt Romney had a "Office of the President Elect" site (and a seal) made up, and he didn't even win.

that's both pathetic, and sad. yet it's also completely irrelevant, as this is thread about obama being humble. this "bu bu bu bu the other guy did it" mentality of liberals is what they've been reduced to. pathetic.

Perhaps you could explain exactly what your problem is with the president elect having office space, with a staff, and referring to said office as the office of the president elect?

you are mistaking his humiliation from his time in office as being humble.

when did I say I had a problem with it? I said it wasn't humble. here is thomas jefferson's headstone.

Here was buried
Thomas Jefferson
Author of the Declaration of American Independance
of the Statute of Virginia for religious freedom
& Father of the University of Virginia.

see what's missing? he did not view winning a popularity contest as an accomplishment worth noting. that's humble.
