Apparently, Obama botched this pop culture test the other day, confusing Fred Sanford with George Jefferson.
"That ain't right," Obama said. "Can you imagine? If Social Security funds had been invested in the stock market, Americans wouldn't even need Social Security!
"You would be having Sanford and Son," the senator said, referring to the 70s sitcom featuring Redd Foxx as the proprietor of a junkyard.
"I'm comin', Weezie," he said, laughing, botching one of the signature lines from the show, in which Foxx clutched his chest in a mock heart-attack and prepared to meet his late wife in heaven.
As we all know, the actual line is "I'm comin', Elizabeth."
One commenter nailed it: "I guess all blacks look alike to Obama."

maybe I'm too young, but none of what he said there makes sense to me.
