Meet Obama's bodyman: The White House 'Chief of Stuff' who caters to the President's every whim

Meet Obama's bodyman: The White House 'Chief of Stuff' who caters to the President's every whim

...a tiny cubicle just outside...the Oval Office sat Reggie Love, a 6ft 5in, 18-stone, shaven-headed, muscle-packed...

...the man is fast, athletic and tough... he is not one of the new President’s official bodyguards.


Heavy duty: Reggie Love, President Obama's bodyman, lugs bags to a car
and, right, on the campaign trail

...Reggie, a charismatic and immaculately dressed 26-year-old from Charlotte, North Carolina, spends more time with Mr Obama than anyone else - even the First Lady...he is the President’s ‘bodyman’....

The personal protection role has long been assumed by the highly-trained bodyguards of the Secret Service but...

...remained a little-known political tradition until the inner workings of the White House were dramatised in the TV drama The West Wing...


Obama and Reggie with another aide in the campaign aircraft

...It is Reggie who holds Mr Obama’s BlackBerry, dials the numbers on his mobile phone, briefs the White House chef on what the President would like for lunch ...Until Reggie Love, bodymen tended to be regarded as glorified butlers...

But Mr Obama promises to be a different kind of President - with a different kind of bodyman.

Reggie, who even the notably cool Mr Obama acknowledges is super-cool, has a suitably pithy phrase for his role. He is the "White House Chief of Stuff."


Brotherly love: Reggie sticks close to Obama as they take to the streets

I agree. The Executive branch has been compromised. We’re in the beginning stages of a dictatorship. Problem is who runs Obama?

Start with Soros and the list is endless.

It's probably all on his unauthorized personal Blackberry.

Прощайте, товарищ.

Glorified butler my eye!

He’s more like a modern day slave to “O” - who is his master! Love comes on call!

He has a personal chef? Did someone in the WH lose a job for the personal chef or are we paying another salary?

Somehow, my quote about the Prez-to-be’s beautiful girlfriends didn’t appear.

The personal protection role has long been assumed by the highly-trained bodyguards of the Secret Service but, ever since Washington, every President has employed a trusted personal aide who caters for his every whim.

No, they all have one.

My question (and it's a real and retorical one) How will/does the Secret Service handle this? Do you think there is going to be a sort of behind-the-scenes turf war over as to who is Obama's "real" bodyguard? Cause some how I don't see Mr. Reggie Love backing down when some SS guy says: "We're the boss here."

I somehow do not think this long nice article with bring a smile to the Rahm. I had the impression until reading this that Rahm was in charge.

You are right with the rumors, we can’t even find out who B. Hussein O. is.
