And apparently it actually HAPPENED!
Don't think so? Look at the floor. It's reflecting it and everything. No way someone's that good at editing.

Barack Roll
A screenshot of a "Barack Roll", featuring President Barack Obama
Hugh Atkin, an Australian lawyer and notable producer of Internet viral videos[45], created a popular YouTube parody video of the Rickrolling meme involving United States President Barack Obama, then the 2008 presidential candidate for the Democratic Party, entitled "Barack Roll" that has been watched about 6 million times since its release.[46] The video consists of clips of Obama speaking the words of Astley's song.
A follow-up video shows Senator John McCain being "Barack Rolled" at the Republican National Convention; though it never happened — the "Barack Roll" image was displayed on the giant blue sky background that was behind John McCain during his speech, and the video was pieced together from footage of the event. The video ends with what looks like the delegation cheering, chanting "Obama! Obama!"[47] This version won the Favorite User Generated Video award at the 35th People's Choice Awards.
Its not hard, all you got to do is use some editing program to put the same video on the ground and then cut out around the parts of the stage.
