The adorable Mr. and Mrs. Obama

My old pal (thanks, Lina!) sent me the following anecdote about our US President Barrack Obama and First Lady Michelle.  It’s a cute testament to the fact that even a power pair has their “normal married couple” moments.

One night, President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine and go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that wasn't too luxurious.  When they were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the president's Secret Service if he could please speak to the First Lady in private. They obliged and Michelle had a conversation with the owner.

Following this conversation President Obama asked Michelle why the owner was so interested in speaking to her.

Michelle mentioned that in her teenage years, the owner had been madly in love with her.

President Obama then said, "So, if you had married him, you would now be the owner of this lovely restaurant."

To which Michelle responded, "No, if I had married him, he would now be the President!"
