Barack Obama has plans to replace the White House bowling alley with a basketball court, if he's elected in November.

"There's not only a chance (that he'll have one built), but it's a guarantee," Obama said Monday on WFNI 1070 The Fan.

The candidate described himself as "a slasher, a three, maybe a poor man's Scottie Pippen or Tayshaun Prince -- a guy like that without as much talent."
Funny, I guess he was a good player though. I seen him on the Trya Banks show and he was hitting some threes(keyword being some).

Although I don't want to see him as the prez(he'd be better off being Hillary's VP for 8 years then be prez for another 8). But that would be funny and cool.

Haha, that's pretty funny. I don't want to see him as President, but I would like to see that. And PugZee, that can't happen, he's already a presidential candidate and hasn't dropped out, he can't be her VP. Plus, these people already have their VP's chosen. But, I agree, it would be the best for him to gain experience.

I know that can't happen anymore, but thats what should have happened. But there little beef got in the way(canidates don't even debate anymore they just put down the other canidates)
But the court would be funny.

Yep but I see the beef being influenced by their representatives telling them to do it, to spice things up. Anyways, imagine Bush coming back to visit and playing 1-on-1 with Obama, haha, I would pay to see that.

Rob, they don't have their VP chosen yet... And they don't choose... The members of the party choose, but the Prez does have a say in it... Either way, neither Clinton nor Obama would accept anything less than victory.

It won't matter, because hopefully, McCain is in.

I'm pretty sure that the loser of either the Democratic/Republican primary was put on for Vice President before.

Actually just Hilary sucks.


Georgie could probably ball Obama up. He seems like a hella tight guy to chill with, not so good of a president though.

Can't take out the bowlin alley :eek: Bowling is sweet. He should keep the bowling alley and put a court in somewhere else.

But I think he should be more worried about how he is gonna get elected, and how he will help the US rather than worrying about staying in shape and having fun in the white house.

I mean it's a cool idea I suppose, but why would he get rid of the bowling alley. So old, and legendary...

I love to bowl..

Just saying, it's like a trademark of the white house. He could build it somewhere else couldn't he?
