A real leader: You know, Julie, obviously, with so many really important issues facing the USA and the world today, I don't feel we should waste any time discussing something so totally lacking in importance as the sports world. Sports are important in their place, and a great temporary escape, but when compared with world issues, it's just not something I should be discussing right now as I am faced with numerous serious problems facing this great country.
You guys would be up in arms if he didn't answer the question. Heck, the only reason this is even being talked about is because the idiot 24hr news channels picked it up and thought it would be good wasting time on a non issue.
Ummmm.......Isnt the freakin' government shut down?
It is, which is the fault of the idiot conservatives who shut it down because they want to invalidate a legitimate law despite not being given the political power from the people to do so.

It is, and it's not the President's fault. President does not control the international oil markets and pricing. US oil production is in the middle of its fastest-ever increase. And this will probably come as a shock to you, but a significant drop in the price of oil right now would be a very bad sign because it would indicate a serious economic contraction.

Well, to be intellectually honest, he was asked the question.
The interviewer is the boob.
You get the opportunity to interview obama, with all of the scandals, the terrible economy, the weakening of America abroad, the government shutdown, etc., there may be better questions to ask.
If Native Americans find it to be offensive then yes I think the team should change its name. I don't know how Irish people feel about the Boston Celtics or Notre Dame but if they find it offensive then those teams should change as well!!
Yeah, and Obama could have simply responded that it wasn't a matter He wanted to interject Himself into. How difficult is that?
Being POTUS doesn't mean you give up your opinion on things. Besides, if he refused to answer stupid questions everyone would be yelling about him hiding stuff. You know it and so does everyone else.
Imagine a President answering "no comment" to everything like a robot.
