Michelle Obama is a Hooper

obamas Senator Barack Obama told People Magazine that one of his wife Michelle's secret talents is that she can really hoop. "She is the best Hula-Hooper I know. Once she gets the rhythm going, she can drop to her knees!" In the article where the Democratic presidential candidate and possible future first lady talk about how they raise their kids in the public eye, Hooping.org Magazine was very excited by the prospect that there may one day be hoops inside the White House. Do you think we'll ever see Barack hooping though? He told People, "That is one thing you will never see – me Hula-Hooping. I think that's clear."

Alright, McCain gets my vote if he can hula hoop, and Obama refuses.

Dammit! We'll get him hooping yet!!!!!

Sweet! That is friggin awesome. We should see if she wants to stop by a hoop jam somewhere.

Yes we can... have an awesome, hooping first lady. *laugh*

Perhaps if we send him enough hoops, he'll get the hint. (or if 5000 hoopers show up at a rally with *hula hoops for president* signs...)

He's already got my vote, but I think he should definitely re-consider the hula hoop demographic. ;)

Woo hoo! I live across the street from the place where the Nashville presidential debate is being held Oct. 7! Calling all hoopers to hoop it up in my front lawn. Who knows? Maybe the future FLOTUS will hop out of the motorcade and join our hoop jam!

  Track of the Week

Our two tracks for the week start off with Cosmic Cowboys and their new release "One Last Whisper." We're especially loving the Hiro Remix which is why we've added it to the Hoop Sounds iPod below. Check it out and other mixes and download yours on iTunes by clicking:

Next we cool things down with a track for some dreamier hooping. The track is called "Ruby" from the new release from Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabaté of Mali. We think you're going to like it. Give it a listen on the iPod and get your copy on iTunes by clicking:
