A local musician who had the chance to meet former president of the United States, Barack Obama, says it was like he had just met an old friend.
Tim Baker was one of the local entertainment acts who performed at Mile One Centre on Tuesday night. He was able to meet Obama afterwards.

Baker told VOCM Morning Show that when he walked towards Obama, he treated him as if they were old friends and he had knew him already. He says he gives off a “warm charm.”
He reflected on the meet with Alan Doyle as they walked away.
He says when they walked away from the meet-and-greet he said “man, that man is actually beautiful! He is a beautiful man!”
