I love the vid. He plays on his regular guy cred. "With full knowledge that my opinion is no more important than that of my fellow citizens..." - regular guy cred. He had them do location scouting to find just the right place for regular guys cred. They had them take it in a diner for regular guy cred. You can hear cars in the background for regular guy cred. I assume he asked his bff Obama for advice how to film it - to maximize regular guy cred.
I seriously have to wonder if some people Obama liked to work with - worked on that.
