Happy Birthday President Obama!

US President Barack Obama celebrates his 49th birthday and will be spending it with some friends today in Chicago.

He is planning “dinner with some friends in Chicago,” said White House spokesman Robert Gibbs. “And I think he is looking forward to spending the night in his house for a change.”

Obama will not be with his family for his birthday as First lady Michelle and daughter Sasha are vacationing in Spain, while daughter Malia is at camp.
