An exciting campaign video roused the Tampa crowd for the imminent vision of you-know-who Friday night.

"Please welcome," said the arena announcer, "the president of the United States!"

Pregnant pause to let the cheers build.

Then, out from behind the blue curtain sauntered the perpetually campaigning president, known today as Barack Obama. Big smile. Waving to the crowd.

Obama began his familiar jaunty jog up the stage steps, when, suddenly...Oops! Bam! He disappeared. Democrat down. (See video above)

Obama stopped the very public fall -- Forward -- with his hands, inches from a painful face-plant.

Then, he bounced back up, smiling. 'Hey, I meant to do that.' No, just kidding. He didn't really say that. At the podium, Obama tried to make a joke about his graceless entrance, saying he was in such a hurry to see his fans.

I hope and pray that is foreshadowing of his fall from power.

You beat me to it. Obama must have been courting the Pres Ford supporters in FL.

Don’t forget the ridicule Bob Dole got from the Left when he fell off a stage because a railing collapsed.

I’m waiting for him to ‘bust it’ when he descends the stairs of AF1. Have you ever seen him do that with his hands flapping? I’ve never seen anything like it.

Looks like he landed pretty hard on the right side of his ugly mug.

This was NOT a bow. It was merely Obama becoming unbalanced.

Wasn’t there an incident in 1996 when Bob Dole fell because the railing gave way, and the media used it to ask if he was too old to be President?
