Barack Obama Covers People Magazine

Barack Obama Covers People Magazine

Sen. Barack Obama takes the cover of People magazine’s latest issue.

Joining the 46-year-old Democratic presidential candidate on the cover is his wife Michelle, 43, and his two daughters, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7. Here’s a little sneak peek:

Barack‘s daughters get a $1 per week allowance from Dad for doing their chores, like setting and clearing the dinner table.
– The kids receive no birthday or Christmas presents from Mom and Dad, who spend “hundreds” on birthday slumber parties and, as Barack puts it, “want to teach some limits.”

Also featured on this week’s cover is the debut of former Pregnant Man’s baby girl, Susan Juliette.

“She’s so precious, I just can’t stop staring at her,” Thomas Beatie tells People in his first interview since he and wife Nancy returned home. “Just holding her is the best feeling in the world.”

I look forward to the McCain family photos. otherwise, I would think People Magazine is trying to tell and other Americans to vote for their elitist candidate. That would make my new People Magazine my last!

McCain 2008!!!

How funny that some uninformed people still want to label Barack as an elitist when his family was the poorest one in the race and had the less privileges growing up.

I agree #11. When does John McCain get his cover?
Sure the media is not biased…

the reason why his not buying them presents is to teach them some limits its not like he said his never going to buy them presents. my dad did the same thing to me and my brother just to show us how other poor kids in the world never get presents, so that when we do we can highly appreciate theme, thats his whole point people need to leave OBAMA alone racist people im white and i love obama and black people weather you like it or not obama will be president and black people will shine like never before.

The reason why Obama gets so much press in the first place is because people WANT to read about him. He’s much more interesting than McCain, and that’s why nobody would care about a McCain cover.
