Barack Obama and a Chicago voter had a brief moment of fun when the voter from Illionois jokingly asked the President to not touch his girlfriend standing next to him.
Mike Jones' confrontation for his girlfriend Aia Copper was taken rather smoothly by the President who had retorted that he had no such plans on doing so, the Independent reported.
