Samuel L Jackson has challenged Barack Obama to be "more presidential" and "stop trying to relate".

The Pulp Fiction star said the US president should try harder to be a leader and stop dropping the "G"s at the end of words during an interview with Playboy magazine.

"We know it ain't because of his blackness, so I say stop trying to 'relate'. Be a leader," said Jackson. "Be fucking presidential." He added: "Look, I grew up in a society where I could say 'I ain't' or 'what it be' to my friends. But when I'm out presenting myself to the world as me, who graduated from college, who had family who cared about me, who has a well-read background, I fucking conjugate."

Jackson, a long-term Obama supporter and civil rights activist stretching back to the 1960s, said he still backed the president in his battles with Republican-controlled Congress [....]

My comment: The only reason I posted this is because it also drives me nuts when Obama switches to "dropping g's" mode. It's so obviously phony, so obviously done according to audience, and in that, somewhat of an insult to the audience on which it is used.
