Video: Easter egg roll
The Obamas celebrated their first spring at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue on Monday by hosting one of the oldest presidential traditions — the annual White House Easter egg roll.
More than 4,000 area schoolchildren were estimated to take part in the festivities on the White House South Lawn, which kicked off with a joint appearance by the first family and the Easter bunny on the residence's famous Truman Balcony.

If America was on the right track it would be teaching its children the hidden meaning of the unleaven bread in the days of unleaven bread . I guess the Obomas are talking to the Easter Bunny instead of Christ .
this is an excellent tradition and it's nice that for the first time I have actually seen it on you tube. Obama is a man of the people and I am sorry now I didn't vote for him but I am glad he is president since he signifies hope.
What President Obama whispered to the Easter Bunny:
Come on, I'll show you where Michelle planted the carrots if you tell me where Bin Laden is hiding.
can you 'hare' me now?
