In response to "somebody say something -- nm" by prayformojo

Apparently the foodie world got all hepped up earlier this week when Prez Obama ate bun cha with Tony Bourdain a few days ago in Hanoi. -- (edited)

It is such a common (albeit delicious) meal of the people that reportedly onlookers and Vietnamese people actually cried. They were honored that he chose this fare. And he worked those noodles with his chopsticks like a boss.

Not on the same level obvs but I sort of got it last month in Colombia. When our choral group would sing the Colombian National Anthem people in the audience would cry. It means so much to people when you truly try to relate to them, enjoy and honor the things that mean something to them.

I'm going to really miss having this man in Office.
