You can really see in this photo how much Malia looks more like Michelle and Sasha looks more like Barack.

    I look at those two girls and think to myself, “wow, those are beautiful girls.” Then I look at a picture of Chelsea Clinton about the same time and I think, “wow, that girl went through a really awkward phase. Someone should have put some product in her hair and got it under control.”

    I think it is a toss up between the Obamas and the Kennedys for most beautiful first family.

    That is an awesome-looking photo. And it’s not stuffy and over-formal.

    Chelsea turned out to be a late bloomer, but bloom she did.

    That said, this is a very good shot, utterly lacking in the usual pomp and circumstance that tends to show up in Official Photos. Annie has evidently not lost her touch.
