David Letterman asked President Barack Obama: “How long have you been a black man?
Obama replied: “I think it’s important to realize that I was actually black before the election.”
Nice humor from Obama and Letterman in delivering the first Presidential interview ever on The Late Show with David Letterman. Here’s highlights in video.
The result of the funny jokes? A huge surge in ratings for Letterman. Dave’s audience was 195% more popular than the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien and 27% more watched than the 10pm Jay Leno Show.
That Letterman is such a savvy and chatty little New York rat isn’t he? Love him!
