SCMP Reporter

The inauguration of Barack Obama as president of the  United States on January 20 will  probably end up being one of the world's most-watched events of this year.  A video clip  on YouTube (keywords: Barack Obama is Irish) suggests the nation's commander-in-chief  should also consider dancing a jig after the more traditional twirl around the dance floor with the first lady.
Irish musician  Shay Black sings: 'He's as Irish as bacon and cabbage and stew. He's Hawaiian, Kenyan, American, too. If he succeeds, and he has a chance, I'm sure our Barack will do Riverdance.'
