CBS: Obama’s Circle Of Friends (January 21, 2009) – ‘From Barry to President Obama; Erin Moriarity speaks with Marty Nesbitt, one of President Obama’s closest friends, about this historic moment and the importance of friendship.’ (You can see the original video here)
A big thank you to Hachikō for the link to this interview – love it. Blackwaterdog also linked the video earlier today, make sure you pay the very wonderful The Only Adult In The Room a visit.
(See August 2011 post with this video here)
I love this – and especially what he said about Malia maybe being even better than her father (which is as it should be, really). What an incredible group of people.
Cool. As I said in my email to you, Chip, this video reaffirms everything I believed about our president.
Many thanks for this link. The interview is sincere and powerful, and, yes, reaffirming that Barack Obama is exactly the right person for President of the United States. I feel lucky and thankful that he is willing to take it on.
With friends like Marty, one is truly blessed. Oh, and he’s cute as well. Two handsome and smart men. Wow!
He is a cutie, that Nesbitt. What a good friend. Thank you you for being a friend to the prez. That Malia, for some reason I knew she had to be smart.
Thanks Chipsticks! What a great man!
Dynamic and illustrious group of friends he has. Was ‘researching’ a comment someone made on a blog and stumbled on this interesting read http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/14/us/politics/14friends.html.
