Why do you think obama had his kids on t.v.?

Question

answering questions from a national media outlet? why would he take advantage of his kids like that?

Answer 1

It's an attempt to show that he's a regular family guy.  He's not the first, and it's not necessarily a problem.

As long as he doesn't do it so much it's harmful to the kids, I don't see a problem with it.

I DO see a big problem with Obama.  In fact, a LOT of big problems.  But not with this.

There are more important issues.

Answer 2

ok, if obama had his two kids on tv, and palin had her five kids on tv, then palin must be two and a half times worse than obama. Thanks for pointing out this to us all, you are a fine american.

Answer 3

old new "60 sec. man"

Answer 4

An parading your unwed pregnant daughter and her unwilling boyfriend around isn't doing the same thing. Seeing the candidates children/ family helps to give us a better idea of their character and what they believe in. If they can not control or even educate their own family what makes you think they can do anything for yours.  

Answer 5

He's looking for good parents for them

Answer 6

That was a mistake that he said he regretted.

Answer 7

All candidates D or R have had their kids on TV but no candidate's child (unless an adult)  should be interviewed.

Answer 8

they didn't want to be there

Answer 9

So when the stories came out about his g*y roommate in college, he could say he wasn't g*y.

Answer 10

Why not.  Should he hide them the way McCain hides his dark-skinned daughter?

I would rather see young well behaved children on tv than an unsupervised pregnant 17 year old with an ex- boyfriend who looked as if he rather be anywhere else than on stage with his ex girlfriend.

Answer 11

I guess it's ok for Bristol to be paraded around holding onto "lover boy's" hand for dear life? He looked like, "Please, somebody shoot me!" I know his friends are wearing his butt out now. Betcha next time he'll use a condom. Then again, mama Palin would probably put a hole in it so another little propaganda pinup can pop out. Just when he thought he could hit it and quit it...

Answer 12

Because when he stars in his own cartoon show after he loses he wants more cartoon characters in.

Answer 13

To show his loving family to us. I applaud that but would crucify him if he would abuse them as Palin did her daughter.
