The child who touched Obama's hair

(the photo is everywhere but I cannot post it, perhaps someone can),

Anyway, as Michelle told the story

A 5-year-old black boy visited the White House, looked up at President Barack Obama, and asked to touch his hair, saying, "Is my hair like yours?"

Can anyone imagine a kid asking Trump about his hair?

... well, amusing to me anyway.

PS: Is this photo for real or has it been digitally manipulated? She looks like she could be a Disney villain.

There are some shots where she has regular "older lady" hair and some younger ones where it looks quite nice but long story short - the swirly-doodles and very elaborate hair construction: he got it from his mommy.
