Obama Reelection Campaign Trying To Make Him “Cool” Again…
Because what’s more important than a president that’s “cool”?
Via Politico:
Barack Obama had all the 2008 cool.
Now he’s trying to get at least some of it back.
A video of Hollywood A-listers singing a Will.i.am song about him, a Shepard Fairey painting with “HOPE” beaming in bold letters beneath his face, constant buzz on social media — the Obama cultural phenomenon four years ago lit up the youth vote like no campaign before. So as the president gears up for a reelection run that’s going to struggle with independents and moderates, his team is looking to revive the cool appeal — and reignite the young voters who’ve strayed.
Last Tuesday’s pre-Fashion Week fundraiser was an early strike at recapturing the magic. Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and actress Scarlett Johansson cohosted the event at Theory, a trendy clothing store in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, hawking pro-Obama T-shirts, scarves and tote bags designed by Marc Jacobs, Tory Burch and Beyoncé Knowles with a runway show for a well-dressed crowd.
Johansson and Wintour both fundraised and campaigned for Obama four years ago, and Jacobs, Burch and Knowles all designed gear sold as part of that year’s Runway to Change. This year’s Runway to Win, Johansson told reporters at the event, is geared to “reintroduce that kind of cool factor to the reelection.”
The Obama 2008 campaign logo, a trendy graphic design ‘O’ rising over a red-and-white striped field, is back again this year with updates. It’s been modernized with matte colors replacing the glossy and more varied shades of red, white and blue. On BarackObama.com, the 2008 color palette and design has become more sophisticated, with bright blue replaced by navy blue, baby blue and white.
The changes, said Obama 2008 design director of new media Scott Thomas, are meant to allude to the cool while introducing the notion that Obama is now “more distinguished and more experienced” than he was four years ago.

Step #1: Take the ‘Hello Kitty’ bell off the handlebars.
The only thing cool about him is the ice water running through his veins. Satan is hot isn’t he, after all it’s nothing but fire in hell.
Step #2: advance to a “man” type bike. That one appears to be a “women’s/girl” bike.
nope, not possible. No matter his sycophants and acolytes do or say, the cat is out of the bag. The person they thought was the coolest guy in school turns out to be the weird kid talking to imaginary friends and eating paste over in the corner by himself.
Also, there’s this:
http://theulstermanreport.com/2012/02/03/white-house-insider-obama-complains-i-wanna-be-cool-again/
The economy is in tatters, people have been out of work for years, the middle east is in flames- but the focus is on making president downgrade “cool”. That’s-
winning the future, the soetero way!
The White House insider said about two weeks ago.. That obama wanted to be cool again.. 2008 he was cool and why isn’t he now.. He tasked his crew to make him cool; So I guess we will be seeing more things to make the fool,look cool.
I would love for him to be cool, Like in cooling his jets in a 5 by 7 cell.
They’re gonna need to burn all of his mom jeans. I hear skinny jeans are real popular with hipsters right now, maybe he should go with that.
What historical Fascists had their supporters make them look cool?

LMFAO….. To funny ….
@Grass Mud.
Two like minds here.
The Insider is right again, I almost fell of my chair when I saw this headline. Sent to Ulsterman too. For the longest time I thought I was reading fiction, fun fiction from Ulsterman, now not so much.
@Grass Mud Horsey,
I agree. There is no way he can be “cool” again.
Even his mfm shills won’t be able to make it happen.
We know too much now.
There is another approach that we’re overlooking here.
Why doesn’t the Obama administration simply change the way that ‘Cool’ is calculated? That accounting trick worked for the unemployment rate, didn’t it?
From cool to tool in 3 years. November can’t come soon enough, and January we send him packing.
Cool as Herpes.
Step #3: Try wearing some men’s clothes and riding a man’s bike.
Here is a suggestion….
http://famousdc.com/2011/05/19/rep-allen-wests-american-chopper-picture/
From cool to fool.
He is such a shallow bastard.
What self respecting world leader would whine like this.
I think when he gets the boot in Nov. he will have a mental breakdown.
Give him a big, bad ass chain saw. And step back while he cuts off his own leg.
I once heard two sista’s discussing a guy who thought he was “cool”; the described him as follows
“He thinks he’s hot $shit but he ain’t nothin’ but cold diarrhea”
Kind of describes him perfectly, don’t you think?
One sign that you might be a narcissist is if you care more about LOOKING Cool than actually BEING Cool.

NEWS FLASH!
Obama is not and never was:
-Cool
-A great orator
-A uniter
-Intelligent (I.Q. off the chart…….not)
-A constitutional scholar
-Hetero
“Room temperature” cool, I hope.
There has never been a time in the history of America where people need to understand where this nation is headed with the “progressives” in the Obama Administration and the “progressives” in Congress and even in our educational system. History is about to tragically repeat itself. I find myself thinking (and I know some of you will scream “alarmist” when I post this on this thread) that what is NOW happening in America really isn’t all that different than what happened with the Jim Jones and the People’s Temple. I urge you to watch this PBS documentary concerning Jim Jones and the People’s Temple! http://www.documentarywire.com/jonestown-the-life-and-death-of-peoples-temple
This jackazz is cool and the Squatch is beautiful. Somebody wanna borrow my glasses?
He’s a chump. No amount of window dressing is going to change that.
Charman Zero’s campaign has started trying to rehabilitate the Wookie’s reputation, too.
Yeah, that’s my #1 priority in a POTUS. I gotcha cool right here, BoBo.
Good God, can we please get an adult in there?
@friday: If history does repeat itself, can we hope for another Reagan? Seeing that 1st vid, in retrospect, makes a person recognize the gift that RR was to us as a Nation.
That 2nd vid is goose-bumps. Seeing the juxtaposition of Reagan then those clips of the others?
@Fishy….alarmist? No. Many of us wouldn’t think so. There’s apparently some type of building towards some “massive” happening. More likely a negative happening than a positive. Unless some type of Divine Intervention from Above us has other plans.
Not gonna happen. It looks to me like Mooch is also trying her best by busting her considerable backside to be “cool”. There’s nothing cool about people who are destroying everything my dad and grandad fought for to keep American free and prosperous. Barry, your unAmerican ideology is NOT “cool”. The horse has left the barn and there’s no bringing him back. You and your classless wife need to go as far away from America as possible and NEVER come back. You both are traitors.
He should grow some mutton chops and maybe start using Hai Karate cologne.
You don’t get no cooler than that.
All he has to do is make an Executive Order deeming himself cool, there, problem solved. Or perhaps Pelosi could introduce a 2,000 page “Cool Reform” bill since “cool” is obviously broken and has to be fixed at any cost in blood, treasure and liberty. Maybe the answer is for Obama to appoint a Cool Czar. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Anyone who ride around on a stupid bicycle has no room in the goverment
@John Difool
Oh man, you’re showing your age there. I can still remember the smell of that stuff right now, good times man.
The eco no money that’s❞Cool❞
I see that they photo-shopped the training wheels off of the girlie bike
“He should grow some mutton chops and maybe start using Hai Karate cologne.

I’m thinking maybe a mullet and some zubaz pants and this guy would be oozing coolness from his very pores.
Better order a 50 gallon drum!!!!

The “cool” part maybe has something to do with hiring a certain Constance Steinkuehler as a video game czar @ the WH for something like $350,000?
Looking for specific link on that. Someone else knows this info I’m sure.
Step #4 remove that bike helmet and replace with a Skull Cap. Or German battle helmet.
I didn’t know Obama was ever cool in the first place.
Cold, yes.
Cool, no.
Obama ™- A Katzenberg,Soros,Marx,Beyonce production.
So they are admitting America would rather endure a raging case of herpes than have this man as President?
The media has come a long ways since 2008.
President Erkel
You can’t polish a turd.
They’re counting on “cool” to get him re-elected?
His supporters can’t be too smart.
@Hickster says:
Meet Constance Steinkuehler, the White House video game czar
Video games can teach kids how to conserve energy, eat a balanced diet or solve quadratic equations — consider the invisible hand of one of the most unconventional White House hires in recent memory.
Isn’t that what you want the Federal government to do?
http://deskofbrian.com/2012/02/meet-constance-steinkuehler-the-white-house-video-game-czar/
And millions of people will fall for this bullshit AGAIN. The left continue to stir it up and the right will continue to let them get away with it. When will the right decide enough is enough?
And yet…as long as the media and Hollywood shills for him we will still have that 49% who will re-elect him. What America wants is “Reality TV” and “American Idol” when they turn on the news at night.
Expect Michelle to show up as a back up dancer in a Beyonce video and Baroque on an episode of “Cribs”.
@Grass Mud Horsey
Thanks for the link.
After all, they have plenty of free time on their hands. From Ulsterman:
“Each day the White House quietly releases President Barack Obama’s daily schedule to the media – and each day the media ignores how very little this president actually does.”
“And so goes President Barack Hussein Obama’s work schedule for Thursday, February 9th, 2012.”
11:15 am || Receives the Presidential Daily Briefing
2:45 pm || Meets with Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti
7:10 pm || Delivers remarks at a fundraiser; private residence, Washington
Meanwhile Valerie Jarrett and side kick Soros working feverishly around the clock destroy the country.
How can you go back to something you never were?
Obumbler is a retread. Always has been, always will be.
myrtle @ 4:16 pm:
LOL!
Baroque will also be starring in, “Pimp My Ride.”
http://theulstermanreport.com/2012/02/03/white-house-insider-obama-complains-i-wanna-be-cool-again/
Feckless John B is ❞cool❞
with the gang
Winning a Grammy Award tonight for singing that Al Green song at The Apollo should really bump up his coolness factor.
“Obama is now ‘more distinguished and more experienced’ than he was four years ago…”
“distinguished”? He NEVER had experience and the fact that he’s running our economy into the ground proves he hasn’t learned a damned thing.
Netanyayu is cool, Allen West is cooooool, you are a tool.
Remember that toy: “Sit and Spin”, that is perfect for you
@friday: that’s the info. Yep.
Well. Not so much. Since I’m a hick & all that, it seems overdone. Overdone.
Just wait ’till he breaks down in tears and hurls himself on Whitney Houston’s casket.
The election is in the bag then.
* too soon?*
He still looks like a total idiot riding his silly bicycle wearing the sissy little helmet
Take off the sign around your neck that says “$25 an hour, the gay blade rides again”.
Fishy – You’re spot on. When the regime’s great nemesis, Breitbart, starts to strategically release those videos of Comrade Barry, the class/race war will get into high gear.
This be ❞Cool❞ with the O’
http://letthemfight.blogspot.com/
he never stopped being cool…dah!
I’d trade a lot of Obama’s cool for a little competence. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have much of either one.
John Difool:
I am just waiting for the First Racists to make themselves the real story behind Whitney.
We’ve had “Cool” for three years now. When can we get “Competent?”
They have to try and make him look like Mr. Cool, and hide the fact that he is such a hateful , stinking Communist.aka Muslim.
If he is re elected, he has nothing to lose. He will put into effect all of the stuff he couldn’t get done this last term.
He has plans to push ahead with gun control. Can’t have an armed population. He will change his mind again about the churches having to pay for abortions etc. He will spend like there is no tomorrow. He will appoint Supreme Court Justices that are liberal Socialists. There will be no end to the horrible things he has in mind for this us.
Pray hard that he doesn’t get a second run at this country.
Maybe John Kerry can dress him up in some byciclers spandex and pretend they are Lance Armstrongs.. or maybe wind surfing…. fucking loosers.
twit
Step #5: Grow some “balls”.
He is an imposter. With Stephapolous he stated something about his Muslim religion and Stephanopolous said” you mean your Christian religion”. The idiot said my Christian religion. You don’t make those mistakes. America! Get smart vote against Obama no matter what. Our children and grandchildren are depending on US………
Sangfroid cool like a snake.
Hiss on him!
Girl’s bicycle – not cool.
Big fucking Harley – cool.
Pussy plastic bicycle helmet – not cool.
Black half-helmet with lots of stickers or skulls – cool.
Mom jeans – not cool (as a matter of fact, they’re gay).
Dirty Levis – cool.
Golf – not cool.
Shooting your favorite 1911 – cool.
Metrosexual – not cool; gay.
Heterosexual – cool.
Marxism – not cool.
Liberty and freedom – way cool.
Bowing to 3rd world dictators – not cool.
Kicking their asses – cool.
You – not cool.
Ronald Reagan – the coolest
Sorry ass hole, you can never be cool.
To be cool Barry you have to start by loving your country…and you love America like O.J. loved Nicole.
Ann Coulter had a good point while being interviewed by Michael Medved. Paraphrasing, she said that we elected cool in 2008 and we got the incompetent Barack Obama….why don’t we give square a a chance and elect Mitt Romney.
If they want to make him cool that’s fine with me as long as by cool they mean room temperature.
liberals polishing the brown turd. problem the more you rub the deeper in the shit you get. polish on you commie rat bastards

“But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao.
You ain’t going to make it with anyone anyhow”
I think we found the problem right here folks.
Obama cool?
This brings to mind that old saying: Gag me with a spoon!
Maybe I’ll try to convince lots of people that I’m black, and that way I’ll be cool, too. Because then I can start telling them all kinds of other lies – like how I can make the oceans recede and how I opened a Cracker Jack box and found a Nobel Peace Prize.
Kind of funny how often that word – cool – has shown up on youtube vids lately. Even ones about MO.
The Coolest Guy -”That Is What Am” remains, Obama’s acolytes notwithstanding, Fast-talkin’, Slow-walkin’, Good – lookin’ Mohair Sam.
The last wish of a dead man walking.
Apparently, the Obamas think treating the White House like their own personal playground is cool…at least that’s what one commenter wrote on the video. (I had to ax her because she called me a racist) Most of these photos are unretouched White House photos…..cooool

He never was “cool”. He has always been a “fool”.
Gas 4.85 a gallon by Memorial Day…………….how cool does that make this fucking idiot…!!
He looks like a fucking pussy.
Barry was never cool – only in the MSM`s tiny minds. He`s more of a ghoul than cool.
To be cool, you either have it or you don`t – and Barry certainly doesn`t. No matter how much money he throws at it, or whatever image he wants to be – it cannot be bought.
Now Col Allen West – there`s a cool guy…and he doesn`t even have to work at it either.
Cool: Either you is or you ain’t.
Dalton Watson II only a confirmed pussy would ever get themselves photographed on a stupid bicycle like that

Hey, Obama is cool…Reggie and he keep up the latest “Tom of Finland” wardrobe.
TOO FUNNY!! You either ARE COOL,.. Or your NOT. There IS no TRYING,..
Oh and you also have to be in high school.
So there is that.
THIS JUST IN…..
Jimmy Carter loses “WORST U.S. PRESIDENT EVER” tittle to Barack Obama!
Barack Obama takes “WORST U.S. PRESIDENT EVER” title from Jimmy Carter. Carter was notified late yesterday of the loss. Carter expressed bitter disappointment at the loss. Carter stated that when he was president, he worked hand in hand with the Middle-East Anti American Coalition to obtain the tittle and was assured by Middle-East Anti American Coalition that the “WORST U.S. PRESIDENT EVER” title would be his for at least the next 100 years.
Obama was proud of his accomplishment and stated that THIS title he has ACTUALLY EARNED!
Not like his Nobel prize that he received for JUST SHOWING UP!
***NEWS FLASH***Obama THE WORST U.S. PRESIDENT EVER!
What do you mean again, never was in the first place and never will. Unless destroying America is cool.
Which is worse, Obama the worst president, or that scum Bush who gave him the keys.
He could have gotten the records, and proved him to be the commie non citizen, or put in place laws that would have him jailed for treason. But I think they cut a deal, and that is why the scum is running free.
I think it would be cool to have Biden take him out with his motorcade. Just run him down on the front lawn and speed off like he does to the rest of us.
Can you picture Biden in the debates against Ron Paul, now that would be COOL.
