Given his experience as the "Dog Whisperer," Cesar Millan certainly knows how to keep four-legged friends in line. His major rule of dog training: Do not let the dog lead you. (See: Bo's family vacation)
"Americans who allow their dogs to walk them is one of his biggest peeves," CBS's Lesley Stahl said during her "Sunday Morning" profile of Millan. "If your dog doesn't learn how to follow, you'll never have a disciplined pet."
Well, guess who could stand to learn that lesson? A few American presidents. (See: Bo goes for a walk in the snow)
Millan recalled pictures of President Barack Obama on Bo's first day at the White House. (See: Bo's first day at the White House)
"Day one was not a good scene," said Millan. "The dog always in front of the president of the United States."
Not that George W. Bush did any better.
"He walked the dog in front," said Millan. "Barney? Sometimes he didn't want to go inside the helicopter!" (See: How dogs and politics are alike)

Read all 105 comments in our forumLeadership???! You're kidding right, Obama could not lead a thirsty horse to water - without question he is not the 'Pack Leader'.
Are we sure he didn't confuse the First Wookie with Bo?
Oh please, Bo is nothing more than a "prop" named after himself. He could care less about the dog.
Cesar Milan for President.
Three reason why he should be President.
He was not a citizen of this country, but he got his citizenship the right way.
Dogs love him and mind him.
He knows how to lead.
Thanks Cesar.

Ahhhh, now we know who is really leading the country into the toilet. BO!
Bo's first day.....wow
What does Milan expect? It's a mutt leading a mutt.
A better Idea is to dump Obama out onto the street, and make Bo the US President. Mans best friend will no doubt do a better job Obama could ever do. A dog is logical, knows who his master is, is not wasteful, and id dedicated. These are all attributes that Obama is missing.
VOTE FOR BO IN 2012 !

Obama can't lead the country either.
In the movie "Downfall" Eva Braun admits to Hitler's assistant that she secretly hates and routinely kicks "Blondi" (Hitler's dog) and Hitler wonders why the dog acts strangely. I wonder, does Michelle really like BO? Maybe there is a reason BO runs?
they are like the Clintons, they don't like the dog. That is why they flew him in a different plane. Clinton had 2 dogs run over and killed because they didn't watch them and left them alone when cameras ddn't click. It's all for show and nothing more.
Bo is obviously the leader, but let's not make the mistake of assuming he is responsible for the US going into the second great depression, that is squarely on the shoulders of the wimp being pulled around.
Bo is far more qualified to be the President than is his owner. Bo, we know for sure, was born in the USA. Bo has a much better pedigree (he is not a "mutt", he is a purebred). Bo does not spend our money with abandon. Bo does not live by "Do as I say not as I do". Bo does not lie to the American people. And Bo's big ears are cute.
