8. Why not?
if the President has to be limited why not the Senate/House? Some of these reps/congressmen/women hold too much power as they've been in there forever.

4. I didn't know they were allowed to take unscripted questions at a Town Hall
A little different from a Clinton or Dubya town hall for sure!

5. I'd love to have the transcript of his wrap-up at the end: "We won't always agree, but I'll
always listen.." That little thing at the end was absolutely perfect !

I liked his answers but I wish he would've shown more of a "human touch" when it came to relating to the people asking him questions. He didn't seem that interested in them or their story. Bill Clinton was a master at that, btw; he set the standard.
