Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen: Renegades

July 24, 2022

Driving a 1960 Corvette at the home of singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen was, said former President Barack Obama, "one of the highlights of my time on this farm ... getting behind the wheel of this mean machine!"

[...]

The friendship between the two men started in 2008: "Bruce Springsteen decided to charitably help out some not-very-well-known new U.S. senator who had the audacity to run for president," Mr. Obama said. Over time, that friendship deepened, a friendship Mr. Obama once characterized like so: "I am the President. He is the Boss."

And in 2020, they sat down together for a couple of days at Springsteen's New Jersey farm to talk about their lives, and our world. Those conversations became a podcast, and then a book: "Renegades: Born in the USA".

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years burnin' down the road
Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go

"Yeah we have utterly illusional romanticized vision of America's past and promise. We are grown men who believe in the fables America tells her children, what's it to you pal?"

looks like his shirt was being a little too clingy so he did the ol' pinch and pull but his shirt is so starched the pinch marks are stuck in the fabric.
