He wanted to see Zion, but I think Obama left Cameron a happy man....

Roy and the ex president are very close. After O'bama's visit to play w/Roy and the boys, Roy turned up on the tube doing ads supporting ObamaCare....

I read an article the other day that talked about how Obama's love affair with the Tar Heels was probably somewhat politically motivated....being that North Carolina is a swing state and all. If he had shown the same affinity for Duke back in 2008, you can imagine how many Heels fans would have voted against him.

Interesting for certain!

So that explains his obvious bias against Duke? Really? Why did he have to come to Cameron for this game. Narcissism, just maybe?

What could have possibly gone wrong in the game with LAWLESS OBAMA in the stands?

He's a basketball fan...just not a Duke fan. I am so fine with that.

If I were offered a chance to see Duke at UNC I would take it. I probably won't stand out and have a need for a security detail, but yeah I would go.

Are you serious? Obama has an obvious bias against Duke? I can't tell if you're joking or not.

He’s a Carolina fan he loves his fellow Democrat Roy. K had a few critiques about Obama while he was president too. He also has fundraised for republican senators in the past. I did think his reaction was awesome though and while I don’t agree with his politically at all I think he’s prob be pretty fun to sit down to dinner with

It doesn’t bother me if he likes Roy better than K. Very cool to see such a powerful person want to come to Cameron.

Whether I agree with his views or not, I agree with Pisgah that he would probably be cool to talk sports with, or have a beer with. Or in Dukedenvers case, a 12 pack.

I would love the opportunity to play a game of one on one with him.

Did not like Obama as President but I certainly respect him and the office. However, at the game, he was as gracious as could be. I sat near him and he spent literally the entire game getting mobbed by people and shaking hands. During timeouts he would engage with the camera guys sitting nearby. One Cameron crazie had a sign directed to him. He signed it for her, and let her come down to his section and take a picture with him. On his way out he would shake with every single person who stuck out a hand. I would go nuts if this is what I had to deal with every time I went somewhere. So it was very impressive watching the way he conducted himself. Very personable and seems like a genuinely decent individual.

Cool to see Mayweather there, too?

I think I saw the girl (with her sign) and her picture on a Duke Instagram. The sign paid homage to the former First Lady, as well.

Having to live life that, or really any former President for that matter, just can't be all that fun after a while. Plus, for the most part, you always have to try and be 'on' the whole time.

Not what I said. Did not have to see him at the game to know that he is a narcissist. He is one, that is why he went to the game.
You're talking out of your southernmost orifice if you think there's any case you can possibly make in light of who our current President is.

Stop embarrassing yourself. Stick to the point.

I think it would suck to not be able to go to the store or a restaurant without being constantly bombarded. Price of fame I guess....it's "one" of the reasons I'm not on the PGA tour, or lead singer for Def Leppard.

Yep....much less conspicuous for guys like us just being satisfied on the Web.com Tour.

Exactly right. Being "on" is seriously draining

That reminds me of the old joke my dad used to tell me; 'the only thing that kept me off the stage was the manager'. Bada bing, bada boom!

In reality, isn’t every president narcissistic? I mean, they’re literally running for one of the most powerful position in the world. You kind of have to be that way in my opinion to even consider running for president.

45 of the most narcissistic men in the history of the world have held the office. That’s why I’m running in 30 yrs

OK, you got me there, Dat. So, there is only one narcissist in this world? Did not know that. Guess that is why I am the very first person to ever suggest that Obama is a narcissist. Not any more of a fan of Trump's persona than I am of Obama's. The fact that Trump may be a narcissist does not mean that Obama is not one. I must be getting to you. Got to resort to personal insults now? Hardly a surprise.

You're not getting anything, let alone getting TO anything. Your post was crap. Your take was crap. Your decision to go there in a thread that had nothing to do with it says your judgment is crap. I call crap crap. Don't post crap if you don't like getting called on it.
