When he's mad, President Barack Obama gets eerily quiet.
A 21-year-old former Duke University football and basketball star improbably became then-Senator Obama's right-hand man during his first presidential campaign.
Reggie Love went on to work as Obama's personal aide for five years, crisscrossing the nation with America's future president, serving him meals, carrying around his luggage, buying him clothes, challenging him on the basketball court, and babysitting for his children.
In a new memoir, "Power Forward: My Presidential Education," Love discusses being by Obama's side "on the campaign trail when no one believed in him" to the "seconds before stepping onstage to be sworn in as the 44th President of the United States of America." Love also shared stories of what it's like to upset the president.
Here are some of the times Love saw Obama's angry side.

"The senator opened the bag of trail mix I'd bought and proceeded to pick out every M&M, holding them all in his palm like pieces of candy-coated toxic waste. 'I'm not going to eat these,' he said while pushing his hand in my general direction. 'Do you want them?' he asked, wrinkling his nose. 'No thank you, sir,' I answered, then made the first of what would be thousands of notes to self: No candy with the trail mix."

The rather thin veneer of faux sanity....that Obie hides behind...isnt rugged enough to survive many more SELMA speeches!
hes coming unglued..
He’s reigning in his temper a bit.
Although he does look wee weed up.
Well, he is overdue for a spanking.
Err, wait a minute......
Pure brilliance.
You, not the pansy-in-chief
A change from his usual, I see.
