Some say that Barrack Obama’s success can be pointed at his use of games in his campaign. He placed ads in Burnout Paradise, Madden NFL 09 and Guitar Hero. No other presidential candidates to date have used this media in their campaigns.

But is it possible that Obama be a gamer himself? We all know that both presidential daughters own a DS each. Actually the answer is yes. He has been quoted as saying that he loves playing Bowling on the Wii Sports to relax. So yes, President Barrack Obama is a gamer himself but then again, almost everyone is a gamer these days. Even my grandmother enjoys playing Cooking Mama on the Wii.

When President Obama was asked if games are the reason for the decline of education in the country, he stated that the parents should be the ones to blame for it. He believes that the role of parents is to interact with their children instead of leaving them in front of the TV. These are good times we live today. Hopefully Obama’s promise of change will be felt by everyone, even gamers.
