How old is Barack Obama? Internet hails 'favorite President' as he flaunts basketball skills with 3-pointer shot
Former president Barack Obama appeared to be having a great time while on the campaign trail for his former vice-president Joe Biden. The former president posted a video to Twitter showing him being passed a basketball in the Northwestern High School gym right before the rally and nailing a three-point shot with nothing but net. He captioned the video, “Shoot your shot,” with the link to the voting website.
The crowd started cheering and someone said "Walk off!" As Obama casually saunters away, he looks back and says, "That's what I do!" Just to make sure everyone heard him, he removed his mask and said it again loud and clear. “It’s a walk off." Obama called game. “That’s what I do.” 44, y’all.Vote Biden/Harris…” wrote retired professional basketball player Rex Chapman posting the video on twitter, to which TV and radio personality, Nina Chantele, replied saying, “DAMN I LOVE my forever favorite President @BarackObama and his swag!!!”

Obama, 59, played basketball when he was in Punahou High School in Hawaii from 1981 to 1983. He was called “Barry” amongst his mates. He participated in the game as a member of his high school team. Last year when the NBA expanded into Africa, the former president tweeted saying, “I’ve always loved basketball because it’s about building a team that’s equal to more than the sum of its parts. Glad to see this expansion into Africa because for a rising continent, this can be about a lot more than what happens on the court.”

“The lakers would’ve won in five if they had Barack Obama instead of Danny green,” wrote a fan. BBC journalist Jon Sopel writes, “‘That’s what i do,’ says @BarackObama as he drains a three-pointer .”

One user accurately tweeted saying, “Barack Obuckets.” Another commented, “The only thing that would have made this better is if @BarackObama would have shouted “Game!” as the ball was in flight. Money!” In a meme like fashion, another person tweeted a picture of the former president with Joe Biden writing, “Listen Michigan, Joe Biden is my brother and he will make a great president.” @BarackObama”
