It’s the latest example of how the White House is attempting to leverage the president’s position to influence social norms in areas not directly under his control. Aides say the push was prompted in part by conversations that Obama had during last year’s National Football League playoffs with his press secretary, Jay Carney, who, like the president, has young children who play sports.

The only people who care that Obama is interested in this issue are Obama haters. So it's pointless.

Maybe the commissioner wants to question Obama and his staff since it's obvious that they are governing under the influence of severe concussions.

I hope Michelle sits in on the meeting.
Some of these players don't eat all that well, and hopefully the NFL will put salad bars in their locker rooms so these poor guys can get proper nourishment.

He needs to issue an E.O. that says concussions no longer exist. Problem solved.
