Black Berry Bama

Blackberrys are the new fashion trend of cell phones for the serious minded. No motion sensitive app playing, key less device that is the iPhone. Barack Obama is a serious president for the new way the United States is running technology is everywhere in our society except it seems for the president. He does have all the technologies keeping him safe, but lacks the personal technologies we all have. The technologies of the blackberry suit Obama very well. Like those of business man they are used for work email and calls, but also for email and calls to family members and close friends. Obama wants to be outside the white house bubble, wants to get ideas from other places than just those IV league graduates who sit in the seats of politics.

It is the ideas of many that Obama wants to hear and then consider all of the different possibilities for action. Just like when college students find plans for the upcoming week or the weekend that is coming up. We talk to everyone we know to find what we want to do if we are not with the people we are planning to spend most our time with. Also there are calls to and from home with our parents to get a more sound advice on life and what is going on with the more serious side. Most of the students don't have email on their phones but every student knows how and where they can find a computer the fastest to check. I do not expect Obama to be texting under the Oval Office desk while in a meeting. The president will have down time to and like college students he might take advantage of that time to catch up with close friends like he did during the political campaign where he was seen never without his cell phone.

Common place, a wealth of knowledge that eats at the topics on every college students brain. I want to eat at the part of the brain where the president, politics and the new changing technologies and life are heading. We are heading to a time where almost everyone has a cell phone and more and more people are getting the all capable phones such as a Blackberry. It is the difference that college students want the iPhone while Obama is getting his blackberry. The difference is just their life style but both are being used for the same reason. Its the downtime to catch up with close friends, and why shouldn't a president be given that capability. We all want to hear about other people's lives and hear what they are doing; along with hearing what they have to say about situations in our own lives. Why shouldn't the president be offered the same opportunity that all of us who he is leading have?


P.S. As a side note, wouldn't it be weird if Obama was fighting to keep an iPhone???
