At the end, when Obama is being introduced to whom I can only describe as the chief porter, he is asked if he'd like anything from Air Force One's galley. Obama asked if he could get a burger, medium-well (if I recall), with fries, and some dijon mustard.
That's right... dijon mustard!
The porter asked "Dijon mustard? Like Grey Poupon?"
Obama said something akin to "Sure, that would be okay."
ENJOY YOUR FANCY BURGER, MISTER PRESIDENT!
(For those that are too dense to understand that I am joking, I am -- it's all in relation to the recent "mustardgate" non-scandal courtesy of America's own Sean Hannity.)

1. Meant as a joke but I've known many AF 1 crew from past years and the present crew will be prepared. |

I liked the way he asked for vegetables... it kind of sounded like he knew Michelle would want him to have them. :)
More than that, though, I LOVED the way he was so friendly and at ease and "hail fellow well met" with everybody. It was SO refreshing after those clips of Bush, who so patently did not deserve to be on Air Force One. (I would have thought that time had healed the pain that Bush's dopey face and the stupid words in that stupid voice coming out of his stupid mouth always caused me, but no. It's pavlovian by now, I guess.)
