You should try.
No.
C'mon, Stella.
- Stella... Listen... - Try, try, try, try...
- I can't... I can't sing like that. - What's your song?
-But... - La la la la la... come on!
- Well, there you go. - That was...
The First Lady was pretty good.
Hi President Obama and Michelle, it's Seble from Brooklyn.
Are you going to have a big party before you leave office?
If so, could I come?
Seble, we are gonna have a big party before we leave office.
But I will be honest with you, it's gonna be after your bed time.
It's gonna be kind of a grown-up party.
But, if you want to come and see some of the Christmas decorations, we'll see if we can be in touch.
Hi President Obama and Mrs. Obama.
My name is Amira, and I'm 5 years old.
What advice do you give to 5-year-old girls who want to be President of the United States?
Oh, well, Amira, I think that the most important thing is for you to work hard, and to study in school, and to care about people, and start helping them now.
You don't have to be president to help people.
5 years old, or 6 years old, or 7 years old...
You can be helpful to your mom and dad, you can be helpful to your teachers, you can be helpful to your classmates and your friends.
And as you get older, you can find other ways to be helpful to people.
And if you are caring about other people and treating them well, then you may end up being president someday.
And if you don't end up being a president, it's because you'll find other ways where you can do great things.
Hi President Obama and Mrs. Obama,
My name is Jacob, and I'm 5 years old, and I want to know, who tells more jokes?
Oh, gosh... The President tells more bad jokes.
I will say this, Jacob, Michelle is actually funnier than me, mainly because she teases me but I can't tease her.
I think that's fair.
So, she makes a lot of fun of my ears.
Oh, they're so big.
She talks about how gray my hair's become.
So white.
She talks about how slow I talk.
Ugh, god, he's slow.
I can't say anything about her, 'cause she gets mad.
Nope, you can't.
So, I guess she's funnier.
Alright, you can answer.
I am Absalon, and I am 8 years old.
Barack Obama, you've been my president for my whole life, and Michelle, will you be my president in 4 to 8 years?
Oh, my goodness.
I think that might have been prompted.
Absalon, how are you, sweetie?
No, I'm not gonna run for president, but what I wanna make sure you do is that you go to school, you get good grades, because we're looking to you to possibly be a president one day, too.
But you can't do that if you don't study, and do your homework, and listen to your parents.
But, we are out.
And laugh at your dad's jokes; I think that's very important to being a future president.
Hi, I'm Jonathan, this is Scrabble.
We want to know what was the naughtiest thing your dogs have ever done in the White House?
Ah, that's easy.
Well, you tell it, 'cause you're always mad at Sunny.
So, Sunny... is a wonderful dog.
Sunny is our younger dog.
But there have been times where she just decided that the area near the Lincoln Bedroom and my office at the other end of the hall from her crate...
is included in being outside when it comes to pooping.
Which is not true.
It's still the inside...
- But she didn't always understand that... - Seems so faraway...
But she does know that she...
She knows she's doing something wrong because, like, she'll just run and sneak.
She sneaks.
And sometimes I'll be in my office, and I'm doing my work, and I'll see this, like scurrying...
and I've got to get up and run before she does her thing, 'cause if I'm too late, then there's a little gift that she leaves.
She hasn't done that in a while.
She's gotten much better.
She's gotten... better but...
She doesn't do that as often; she's a grown up.
- Terrible. - She's not a puppy anymore.
It's disgusting.
Hi, my name is Tula, I'm four and three-quarters.
Do you guys ever have bad dreams?
Oh, yeah, yeah, we have bad dreams all the time.
You know, one of my worst dream—my recurring dream is that I procrastinated too much in college and I'm behind on exams.
You still have those dreams?
- I still have that dream! - Wow!
I have to wake myself... I'm sorry, Tula, I didn't... I'm losing myself in horror of that dream.
But, yeah, I still have bad dreams.
And sometimes when I have a bad dream, I just have to wake up and get up.
What about you?
- I actually don't have bad dreams too much. - Oh, come on!
No, I don't, 'cause when I go to sleep, I'm so tired...
You don't do anything.
He does snore.
I snore.
She's told... she told people earlier on about that. That's okay.
She can do that.
- I can't tell people about her stuff. - You can't. No, you can't.
- Let's see what Stella wants to know. - It works differently.
President Obama, my name is Stella.
I'm 5 years old.
This is my song.
La la la la la. What's yours?
Yeah, what's yours?
Stella, I... I can't perform like that.
Uhh, you clearly have some talent.
But you should try.
No.
C'mon, Stella.
- Stella... Listen... - Try, try, try, try...
- I can't... I can't sing like that. - What's your song?
-But... - La la la la la... come on!
- Well, there you go. - That was...
The First Lady was pretty good
Yeah, yeah.
You've got talent, keep on working on it.
The air guitar thing I especially like.
Ask your parents if... maybe you can find a real guitar at some point, 'cause I think you're going places.
- Thank you guys. - Was that it? - That's it.
