I've met no presidents.
Met presidential candidate Senator Barry Goldwater at Dulles airport.
I was in line at the White House and saw Nixon walking to his helicopter.
Had breakfast with British former Prime Minister Harold Wilson and a couple of dozen other people. We all got to speak with him for a few minutes. Were you in the US or UK? In the U.S. He spoke at a local college then held a breakfast the next day.

You know he was often colloquially known as 'Harold 'Bloody' Wilson'?

no but met Noomi Rapace today and boy did she look presidential. So ellegant. And beautiful. Love her face and voice. Check her out in her new movie Stockholm. Its very good. Damn girl. You love to name drop.  I've met dozens of celebrities both work related and through my personal life but I at least wait until someone brings their name up. Hell I could text a handful of well known people right now and they would text me back and I've only mentioned one of them on this site. There is NOTHING presidential looking about Noomi Rapace. At all. Your post is cringey as hell. I'm trying hard to be nicer in general so why you got to be so pompously annoying bro? The thread could be "Dirtiest Bathroom You Have Used" and you be all like "Not sure about bathroom but you know who has a really stinky bowel movement? Hilary Clinton's Press Secretary. She told me I was gorgeous too and smarter than Hilary."

The closest I've been to a president was late 1980s, my college roommate was visiting DC and one of the things we did was go to the Capital building, while in the rotunda there was a bit of a commotion and the crowd was herded and held to either side while a group of High level VIP government types walked through (rushed through more likely) the highest profile of which was then Veep George H. W. Bush. OK so not exactly meeting a president and he was probably no closer than 30 feet away and was Vice President at the time.
More like being just behind the crowd barriers of a parade than a "meeting".

I've never met a sitting president. But, I was a producer for a news-talk radio station in, San Francisco, and met Ronald Reagan a few times while he was Governor of California, and came in for interviews. And, after their terms, I met Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush, when they were on book tours.
