Barack Obama freestyles with Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda at the White House
With only ten months left at the White House, what else could be on Barack Obama’s presidential bucket list?
President Barack Obama is cementing his place as one of the most charismatic individuals to hold office.
Last month, it was nonchalantly throwing a football inside the White House. Today, it is a spot of freestyling in the White House's Rose Garden.
Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda and his cast visited the White House on Monday, culminating in a government-themed freestyle rap with the President acting as cue-card holder.
Miranda managed to rap for one-minute on policies like Obamacare to issues such as immigration.
“We really need a new justice for the Supreme Court, in short, oh my gosh this is my book report. And immigrants, we get the job done, this is so fun, POTUS is holding up the signs, and I’m not done.”

Was the POTUS impressed? We think so from his imaginary mic-drop and reaction.
“You think that’s going viral? That’s going viral.”
The Commander-in-Chief was correct; in twelve hours the video had been viewed over six million times on the White House Facebook page.
