Obama fête ses 55 ans (photos)

Comme le disait encore fort galamment Barack Obama lors de la convention démocrate « ma femme n’a pas pris une ride. Je sais qu’on ne peut en dire autant sur moi ». Le 44e président des États-Unis vient de fêter ses 55 ans. Portrait en quelques photos.

Par la magie des réseaux sociaux, le monde est témoin des instants les plus drôles ou intime du président américain. Un des témoins privilégiés est Pete Souza, le photographe officiel de la Maison-Blanche. Voici quelques clichés glanés sur le compte instagram.

How to present the Medal of Valor to a really tall person. President Obama said he was reminded of having to present NBA Hall of Famer Bill Russell the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Yesterday the President awarded the Medal of Valor to 13 individuals including 6’7″ Donald Thompson of the Los Angeles Police Department. He was honored for pulling an unconscious man from a burning car.
