Barack Obama's approval is fluctuating in the mid 40's and clearly it is time for an overhaul of his administration, or at least his public persona. Lets face it, Tiger Woods is more popular with Elin than Obama is with the American public Since the Secret Service refuses to allow the president to utilize his Blackberry for greater information than Joe Biden texting him with the question, "What up, Dog?", Obama has some time on his hands. I suggest, as his new Public Relations Director, that he plop down in front of the TV in the Oval Office and switch on Seinfeld.
Hear me out on this. If you are the President and your approval ratings are low, then what better to get into the hearts of people than to start referencing the best show in TV history as voted by TV Guide? As the Director of Presidential PR I suggest the following;
1 - Get Obama in a puffy shirt as soon as possible. Can you picture Barack sitting down for his State of the Union address in this attire? Oh sure, people would mock him, but once they picked themselves up off the floor they would be climbing over each other as they hit every boutique on the eastern seaboard in search of the pirate look. Talk about an economic stimulus. Forget bailing out Goldman Sachs, just start dressing up like Blackbeard.
2 - Insert ''yadda, yadda, yadda'' into as many presidential addresses as possible. Obama could start the State of the Union in the usual way, "My fellow Americans, tonight we need to discuss how to turn around this soon to be Marxist nation, yadda, yadda, yadda. God bless America." This strategy would may backfire as it would give Limbaugh and Hannity enough material to get to the year 2065.
3- Only serve candy bars for dessert at State Dinners, and ALWAYS use a knife and fork when devouring them. The downside to this would be when Oriental heads of state were in town and the White House would only include chopsticks with the meal.
4- Continually accuse any republican of Doubling Dipping at the chip bowl in the Senators lounge on Capital Hill. Always good for a chuckle.
5- If Barack really wants to get a laugh, he needs to shout "NO SOUP FOR YOU!" whenever someone asks for seconds at dinner. (Note to self...do not advise this when the President is serving at a soup kitchen at Thanksgiving.)
6 - Obama needs to publicly proclaim that he hates ANYONE who had a pony while they were growing up. The American people would back him up on this, nobody likes a kid with a pony and besides, studies show that only Republican kids had horses when they were youngsters.
7- Finally, the President needs to offer everyone he meets a Jr. Mint. After all, who doesn't like a Jr. Mint? They're chocolate, they're minty, they're delicious.
