Obama And Lt. Uhura Would Like To Vulcan Salute You

Each time President Obama does something so cool that I think there’s no way he can one-up himself, he manages to somehow one-up himself. Take, for instance, when he soulfully covered Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” back in January — I didn’t think there was any way he could possibly top that. Cut now to this…

When actress Nichelle Nichols stopped by the White House in February, she managed to score the ultimate photo op — the Commander-in-Chief brandishing Mr. Spock’s iconic salute. Serving as the Enterprise’s chief communications officer definitely opens doors.

So Lt. Uhura herself tweeted out the above photo. And of course there’s a GIF floating around…

Good luck beating this guy in the fall, Mitt Romney.
