What would he sing? The Internationale?
He already is, Simon. He already is.
I think he should do it; as long as you’re going to be the national laughing stock, might as well do it right.
Why not?
Obama’s base is the young and the starstruck, and he is apparently thoroughly bored with the actual work of the presidency.
An American Idol appearance would give the people the impression is he actually “doing something”, especially the people that he needs in 2012.
He could never make it on American Idol, he’d have to show a borth certificate first....
Obama would never share the same stage with the likes of Chuck Barris given that he was a Game Show Host by day and CIA Operative by night.
Probably figures that’s the only way to get Obama to stop pre-empting the show.
Yeah, he can do his presidential act in front of those judges.
Can he dupe them like he has most of the rest of this country? Answer, it’s Hollywood.
Yeah, but that isn’t new. It peaked season five.
He’s already the American Idol President.
Is Obama the President of the United States or an actor because I see awhole late of acting and little Presidenting going on.
Obama will probably be stupid enough to do it.
What’s he going to sing “In Over My Head”? Cowell had better be careful - viewership would crash.
Guest Judge?
Paula's Lap Boy?
Randy's Lap boy?
I thought he was already on every tuesday, that's what my TV guide sayss..
look! 7.00 pm pst "Lie to me"...
Obama should just send his teleprompter to perform on his behalf.
Seems redundant since he was elected by the same crowd that wathces American Idol.
