Politics are a serious issue but at the end of the day politicians are still people and having a day off where you can joke about things can be very positive.

AAVE is still so negatively viewed that our African-American president has to invite a proxy to use it on his behalf! Pretty clever work around actually...

I think that President Obama used the tool of humor in an elegant way in order to talk about a very serious topic to make it more memorable and give it more significance.

This code switching allowed for conversation style tone to be present throughout the speech through the use of jokes. His jokes were funny but were backed up with statistical facts about climate change and the effectiveness of Obama care.

Hi! I feel like him code-switching could have an effect on how he relates to his audience and appeal to their senses. I don't think that everything has to be so formal and serious. I enjoyed the humorous aspect in his speech; it made it more engaging.

I think that Obama's speech was very entertaining and very informing. The humor is exactly what our society needed. Everything does not have to be so serious.

It was funny. Key and pelee are very famous actors who have dont a obama sketch before to bring them into an actual speech was very funny.

I believe he could've had a better approach to the situation, and not make other people feel uncomfortable in any shape or form.

I think Obama's code switching and jokes were refreshing. It shows that politicians are humans just like us and allows for a discussion about serious issues in a not so intimidating manner.

Obama was speaking in a semi informal matter which was fitting for the event that he was at. In my opinion, the jokes he made were on the line between acceptable and too far but he was careful to make conscious choices about what to joke about

I think that Obama is showing some good points but I do no think that he is doing it in a right way, he is being quite incensitive with some of tht things he is saying

I think Obama didn't do anything wrong, and people are overreacting to him saying jokes.

Perfect. 10/10. Given Keegan-Michael Key was playing "Luthor the Anger Translator", and knowing his next line ("With all due respect, sir. You don't need an anger translator."), this is the perfect way to end this part of the correspondence dinner.

Hi! I love your program specially Rick Adams.  I agree with Mr. Adam’s opinion on the President’s Speech. Even though the tone of the dinner is informal, bringing a comedian can be seen as a stretch. His code-switching was feigned rather than genuine.

Hello! I believe that it helped the audience better understand Obama's intentions towards climate change.

Good morning! I really found the clip funny and engaging for the audience. I think his code switching was adequate and really helpful to make a stronger point.
