Obama attends daughter's soccer game. This is simply amazing:

No cameras, no fanfare, just a pool reporter from yards away "couldn't see much of the action from a distance."
How many dads here have attended their daughters' soccer games?
From one of the comments below the story:
The media pool has been covering him at his girls' soccer games for some time. Because he's there on a pretty regular basis. There was a hilarious video from the pool disseminated some months ago (still during the Democratic primaries) of Michelle and Barack in the usual folding cloth soccer chairs, he starts to use his blackberry and Michelle poking him to put it away. Yep, Mom is making it real clear "this is focus on the kids time--I don't care how 'urgent' the heading on that email looks!" Looks like a pretty together family to me.
What a surprise. A functioning, real family (as opposed to a family that parades their children around on campaign rallies and have other dysfunctional symptoms...)
