Obama cannot run again?

So Obama just casually walks into a deli and surprises the “normal” people off the street who just happened to be in the deli???
Anyone who believes this and does not realize the people in the deli at the time have been screened intensively by the Secret Service beforehand is so very naive or just stupid...
