Times have changed but you wouldn't no it by reading some of the threads in here.

Check it out....Obama Takes Russian President Medvedev To Ray's Burger joint:

Medvedev said the work he and Obama had done had made the world "safer" and, after arriving in Washington from high-tech Silicon Valley, said it was time to move on from geopolitical cooperation to the economic sphere.

"We are ready for that now; our American partners are ready for the same thing."

The imagery of the visit was carefully planned to suggest a relationship functioning both at a personal level, as well as diplomatically.

Obama and Medvedev left the White House after their talks to munch cheese burgers at the president's favorite fast food joint in Arlington, Virginia, "Ray's Hell-Burger."
