Awww!

President Barack Obama bends over so the son of a White House staff member can pat his head during a family visit to the Oval Office May 8, 2009. The youngster wanted to see if the President's haircut felt like his own. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza).

Will the Rushpublics accuse President Obama of bowing to a dictator again?

PhotObama-- The Education President (elect): Q and A with elementary schoolers

By GottaLaff

How cute is this?

Via.

After the press conference at Dodge Academy, President-elect Obama and Vice President-elect Biden went upstairs for a 15 minute meeting with a group of 1st-4th graders--about a dozen.

After a few minutes of chit chat in which he asked the kids what they were studying--(when one child said "decimals," Mr. Obama replied "Decimals! Wow, Joe doesn't even know his decimals!")

He then took questions:

He may even have made news. One child ask him about Iraq and he said he plans to have troops home in a year and a half.

Other questions:

What are you gonna do as president?

A: Make sure all kids get a good education

In 2009 are you going to the White House?

A: After replying yes, Mr. Obama volunteered that he's getting a dog for Malia and Sasha, and added: "I want to make sure my daughters take care of this dog, and if they do their business, and you've got some poop, you don't just leave it there."

Will you go to other countries?

A: Mr. Obama said yes, adding that he even expects to meet some kings and queens.

He also told the kids he's thinking about longer school days, which did not seem to go over well.

He took some photos with the kids...

See, media? If you ask questions that he's allowed to answer, you'll get what you need.
