Most Famous Person

Well sure, it is the same with any President. Purely because of their status they would need to have an elaborate funeral.
But I would even venture to say that Barack Obama has not made an emotional impact internationally, to where people would be mourning worldwide, the way Michael did.

He touched people's hearts, he made beautiful music, and has left the world without their "King." I don't think that anyone would have that response out of love and sorrow, that he had.

His memorial wasn't mandatory, it was elaborate because that is what people thought Michael deserved, and the people who showed up were people who loved him and worshiped him, the millions of viewers who turned in wanted to be apart of it too.

I don't think I would be watching a Barack Obama memorial service, but that's just me.

sorry for the double post, but obama has given hope to many people...
