Why did president Obama leave his own press conference like this?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7vkWiFUOFg

Didn't president Obama call for this conference?
With so many americans wanting to hear answers from our president why would he walk out of a press conference, which he called for, and leave an ex president to answer questions regarding policy?
I'd really like a reasonable explanation other then he didn't want to upset the first lady because she was waiting to go to a party.

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

He was getting Clinton to take some of the heat from the Democrats who think he (Obama) has given in too much to the Republicans. I don't think he had much choice despite the outrageous demands to give tax breaks for the rich, including the Estate tax which not even by the farthest stretch helps the economy or jobs. Anyway, Clinton has a good reputation, the budget got balanced on his watch, so it's worth a shot. Ex-presidents used to be more active in politics, Clinton is turning back the clock in that aspect, perhaps because he was elected so young.

Because president or his office is the only one that could call press conference like this. Besides president doesnt stay for all press comferences anyway.
