'I really wasn't planning on it'
President Barack Obama held his own against a jealous boyfriend in Chicago on Monday.
'Mr. President, don't touch my girlfriend,' said a man identified by CNN as Mike Jones, as Obama cast his early ballot in the Illinois state elections next to a woman named Aia Cooper.
'I really wasn't planning on it,' Obama said, without looking up from his ballot, as Cooper laughs. A visibly embarrassed Cooper then offered an apology on behalf of her fiancé. Obama was sympathetic, though, joking 'there's an example of a brother just embarrassing me for no reason.'
After a brief conversation as the two finished voting, the video shows, Obama gave Cooper a quick kiss on the cheek, to give Jones 'something to talk about.'
