One sunny afternoon last spring, Barrack and Michelle Obama were at a baseball game. Right as the game was getting ready to start, Barrack stood up, picked up Michelle, and threw her out onto the baseball diamond.

When Barrack sat down, his chief advisor leaned over to him and said, "You know, Barrack, you may have misunderstood me. I said you that you get to throw out the first pitch."
