Obama Urges Americans To Quit Smoking

President Barack Obama recently gave up smoking, and he’s recorded a video urging others to do the same.

The President made his video for the 36th anniversary of “The Great American Smokeout,” an American Cancer Society campaign designed to help smokers quit or make a plan to quit.

"The fact is, quitting smoking is hard," Obama says in the video. "Believe me, I know.”

According to Fox News, Obama started smoking when he was a teenager. He quit with the help of nicotine gum last year, and his latest medical report, released Oct. 31, declared him “tobacco free,” The Associated Press reported.
