It has nothing to do with Obama. Gosh you guys think every black person is Barack Obama....lol.

I haven't seen it, but the reviewers disagree with you.

'... Foxx may be called “President Sawyer” in this, but he is more or less playing Obama: He has the clipped speech and the cool egghead vibe, not to mention boxes and boxes of Nicorette in his desk drawers...

Emmerich showed his political slant with thinly-disguised portraits of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney as a moron and a maniac, respectively. But Emmerich was downright subtle there compared to his approach in “White House Down,” which presents Obama as a hero — a Clark Kent just waiting to be Superman — and elements of the right as, not merely wrong, but unhinged...

But Foxx's portrayal of the president steals the show. Partly a celebration of Obama, it's also a barely-disguised message directed at the sitting president, instructing him to peel off the president suit and unleash the hero within. '

Too bad there is no "there" there
