"We elected Barack Obama at least in part because he was a relative newcomer who wasn’t yet steeped in Washington culture (“I haven’t had the hope boiled out of me,” he used to say on the campaign trail.) We thrilled to his family because they seemed like regular middle class people (even if the president’s book earnings had made them newly rich) who wanted to live their values. But then they’re criticized when they act normal and try to maintain their own lives – because they take date nights, for instance, or because the president tries to eat dinner with his family five nights a week."
