In case you missed it, last week Barack Obama's daughters were not able to meet Lionel Messi because their father, who is the President of the United States and possibly the most powerful man in the world, couldn't swing it. Apparently Messi felt bad about this, because he sent Sasha and Malia Obama some pretty cool gifts: signed, personalized Argentina jerseys.
Well that's pretty cool. He even put the signature in the same exact spot on both jerseys to combat sibling rivalry. Shrewd.
Being the child of the President of the United States seems like it would be pretty awful to the outside observer, but this just goes to show that there are actualy a few perks to being related to the leader of the free world. Who would have thought?
