Obama Has Tried to Quit Many Times
Obama was asked — as he occasionally is,most recently by ABC’s Barbara Walters — whether he still sneaks a cigarette now and then. He suggested he does,but said he won’t at his new address.
“What I said was that there were times where I have fallen off the wagon,” Obama said. “What I would say is that I have done a terrific job under the circumstances of making myself much healthier,and I think that you will not see any violations of these rules in the White House.”
