Obama Cracks Up Over Miniature Pope Francis at the White House Halloween Celebration
President Obama got in the spirit yesterday when he and Michelle greeted children as part of the White House’s Halloween celebration.
One visitor especially got the President’s attention, mostly because it probably gave him a feeling of deja vu. The baby who got a thumbs up and calls of “top prize” from Obama was a lookalike of Pope Francis, appearing in complete regalia and his own version of the popemobile.

The mini-pope came in with the rest of the children who received candy from the First Couple in the South Lawn, which was turned into an enchanted forest filled with pumpkins, ghosts, and all things whimsical and spooky of the season.
