It's not everyone who gets to hoist a president like a sack of potatoes. Pizza man Scott Van Duzer sent the president airborne with a giant bear hug when Obama stopped by his restaurant in Fort Pierce, Fla., this fall. Van Duzer, a Republican who says he's voting for Obama, was rewarded with a seat near Michelle Obama during the final presidential debate, and he introduced Obama during a campaign rally last week in Delray Beach, Fla. "Every time I need a pick-me-up, I try to see Scott," Obama declared.
