Barack Obama gets lifted off his feet, LITERALY, by a local florida pizza shop owner named Scott Van Duzer. Obama decided to take a pit stop by Van Duzer's pizza shop as he toured through Flordia on his campaign. He went to the Place (excpected by Van Duzer) and was greeted with a large, 'swept away' Embrace from the 6'3 260 pound owner of the resurant. Obama was quite suprised by the sudden 'powerlift' and admired the mans strength abailities. Now you're thinking.."Hmm, wouldnt the secret service have done something before he was even got close to lay a hand on the president?". Well, the Secret Service were perfectly fine with it. It wasnt posed as a threat. Just the moment of a lifetime for Scott Van Duzer.

I havent heard of this on the news or anything, this is my first time hearing about it. I find it pretty funny that this happened. It would be intersting to see it on the New, or mabey a video of it happening, to see the presidents facial expression when he got picked up.
This would be a positive influence on the audience, since it'll bring a smile to your face to hear about it. But also its ify; becausethe secret service were okay with this man picking up the president, doesnt mean any RANDOM person can just pick up the president. It may not have been a threat that time, but doing that could also get you in trouble, it really depends on the time and place. The pizza shop owner was warned 40 minutes prior to the presidents arrival at HIS shop, so I'm assuming the secret service would praobaly have already known that something like this would happen, because its not like everyday the president gets to have lunch at YOUR reasturant. They were prepared.
This article was just something to brighten someones day, have a laugh.
