THE OBAMA'S COVER PEOPLE MAG


Presidential hopeful, Barack Obama, joined by wife Michelle and their daughters, 10-year-old Malia and 7-year-old Sasha, flashes his million dollar smile on the upcoming cover of People magazine, on sale Friday.

Here are some highlights from the interview:

- Malia and Sasha get allowances of $1 a week for doing their chores — but dad often falls behind in paying them

- The girls have rules to follow such as making their beds, setting their own alarm clocks, keeping the playroom toy closet clean and lights out at 8:30 p.m.

- Obama on the girls’ feelings regarding his candidacy: “They have a wonderful life in Chicago. So I’m sure there’s a part of them that won’t be heartbroken if things don’t work out.”
