Obama Dubbed Stand-Up-In-Chief

By Ryan Kopf - May. 10, 2009

President Obama, recently dubbed by many as Stand-up-In-Chief, celebrated the ten day anniversary of his first hundred days with the White House correspondents dinner. His jokes referenced many recent topics, including a suggestion from Hillary Clinton about taking a vacation in Mexico.

In the past it has been rare to see a president so easily able to connect with the public. Obama has marked his presidency so far with weekly addresses at whitehouse.gov, several drastic policies shifts, and a continued campaign-esque reaching out to the public.
