Ehhh on the Obama comment. 
I find that it really helps to have a little arsenal of reality checks that you can whip out when something strange happens. When you begin to suspect that you are dreaming, pick out the ones that you like best and that are the most reliable for you. Do a few of them, at least three. Reality checks do not work in dreams every so often, even if they have worked perfectly fine before. And sometimes they will continue to work properly after a failure. So it's good to always have three.
"Hmm, I think I'm dreaming." *looks at hands* "Nope, five normal fingers. But still... I'm pretty sure this is a dream..." *pushes finger into palm, while slightly doubting that it really is a dream* "Nope, no go... but that's so weird! I could swear this is a dream..." *looks at clock, looks away, looks back* "Nope, time's still the same. I know this is a dream though, it's just too weird! *looks at clock again* "AHA!! I KNEW IT!! I'M IN A DREAM!"
^Happens more often than you'd like to believe!
