There was no flirting.Obama is a great example of what a family man should be, plus with all the other things they try to make out of a big deal I don’t think he would delibarately flirt with someone on national TV.

Ah! come on naz. That headline you titled this video clip with was an obvious ploy to get surfers to hit your sight. And since you fooled me to look. I must applaud you on your tactic. However, I must chestize you on starting unfounded rumors.

There was no flirting involved, period… President Obama just has a vibrant sense of humor.

if he was flirting then i’d have to say it was casual. he a man that’s so comfortable with his power that when he says ‘hello’ then it’s easy for women to get alittle hot and bothered.(but i saw your picture, if his wife leaves him then you’re probably next in line)

I think the author may be overlaying her fantasy onto Obama, hehehe.

But having traveled to some Asian countries, what Americans consider just “being friendly” could be taken as a serious romantic interest in some countries.

People see what they want to see. Many think because President Obama is a powerful person, some think he should be flirting just to flaunt his desirability. That maybe expected from an immature egoist but not from a devoted husband and father. I saw no flirting at all!

I did not see it as a flirt, but rather a tease…the man has a vibrant sense of humor.

Sorry, I have to agree with the above no flirting. She said thank you as to her leader being wonderful and he asked her since she was thanking him, if she had anything to do with him being wonderful. It’s an attorney’s sense of humor!!! LOL

Not at all flirting. She appeared overly tickled at the teasing gesture the President made, to the point of laughter that included gasps of air. Wasn’t that funny. Obama is a very very handsome and charismatic man with a presence about him and i am sure many women find him very attractive as do I. The man could say “Boo” and i would find it hysterically funny. So unfortunately no flirting sweetheart, he has a strong, beautiful, woman at home whom he had to work for and I don’t think any woman black, white, red, yellow, or brown could ever measure up. He is the President but she is First Lady for a reason, not because of any underhanded reasons like the First Ladies of the past due to money, family heirs, political, but because she is just that a beautiful, smart, articulate, caring, mother, wife, and devoted to helping all classes in her country and will go into any neighborhood to make sure she sees the problem so she can fix it. Stand beside the first black President from the begining while he was considered a joke to everyone else because any black candidates of the past were not taken seriously. No First Lady I know even comes close nor any lady. And you think this man was flirting with this babbling Indian reporter? Keep dreaming. LMAO

Nope. Don’t see it. Just look at his facial expressions and his body language. This man is not even thinking about her. As a matter of fact I have never seen any indications at anytime that President Obama ever flirted with anyone. If you see that in this footage your grasping for straws and I suppose if he did openly flirt with her then I suppose you would assume he is cheating on Michelle. Please, let it go already!

Flirting? Trust me, I know flirting when i see it. That was in no way shape or form direct or indirect flirting. As someone else posted, that could have been anyone…..male or female. Continue to do what GOD has created you to do Mr. President, & may HE (GOD) continue to bless you in all you do.

He isn’t thinking about this woman at all not when he has a beautiful woman at home I didn’t see any flirting at all.

there was no flirting going on in that footage none at all. he did say anything to her to make any indication of ah flirt. if you think that was flirting then sexual harassement charges and accusations must slip off your tongue where you work at. i don’t see it. sorrrrryyyy charlie…

Patel, why did u chose to blog this topic? Sexualizing Black men is an important obstacle, but I don’t see it here. If this was an attempt to get this topic going [Sexualization vs Respect], I think a more clear cut approach should be taken. Otherwise, the subject seems abit trivialized…POP culture is a killer to Black progression… don’t participate in it as well!

If he had chosen an Asian or a white woman…then the article STILL would have said, “Of all the women Pres. Obama could have chosen…” God forbid he picked a black woman,or a man then he’d be choosing favorites, right! A 5th grader could have picked a better topic to “report” on from the G-20 summit. Nazneen, you have the attention of thousands of minorities, please use your power to do something more constructive than telling people to look for something that’s just not there.

I think this argument goes to the root of the Black-White racism this country has been plagued with for the past 500 years. The black man has always been feared by whites for his attractiveness and physical/sexual prowess. President Obama is clearly a very attractive, charismatic, funny guy. He defies all stereotypes attatched to the black man. I think this makes many people ucomfortable….therefore leading to this attempt to sexualize his sense of humor. The response would have fit any reporter of any gender or nationality. I’ve seen many a politician use humor to lighten a room of antsy reporters. Never, to my knowledge, have I heard of ANY of them being accused of flirting. The world is waiting for Obama to slip up somewhere so they can say “See we told you ” But in the immortal words of snoop dogg , Obama’s “Too swift on his toes to get caught up with you h___s…lol….
