because the American People didn't pay him to do just that..but he did have some words during an interview about Michael Jackson. besides, he was in Russia, he wouldn't really make it. they both got important job, it's just that, Michael finally rested on his vocation and that is to sing and dance

Well that probably would not have look right plus he was in Russia taking care of business that I guess is a bit more important to our country right now. With all the turmoil that is going on throughout the world. He needs to be doing his job running our country

Because we are paying Obama to do a job. While Michael Jackson was a talented musican he had nothing to do with politics or the running of this country.

It was not his place to be their....can you imagine the security they would have had to have and all the money it would have cost the tax payers. It would have cost us a lot more than it did with out him their.
