Young journalist Damon Weaver, 11, interviews Obama


Damon Weaver, 11, gave President Obama an interview and asked him 12 questions focusing more on education.
PalmBeachPost reports:

He gained national attention doing interviews on the presidential campaign trail, and had been trying to interview Obama since he visited Washington, D.C. for the inauguration. While trying to score the interview, Damon's met some impressive stands-in including Oprah Winfrey, Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Powell. Dwyane Wade even filmed a video with Weaver in which he promised to shoot hoops with the president if he let Damon have an interview.

When Damon finally got his chance today, he covered some educational issues dear to his heart, such as school lunches. Damon suggested that French fries and mangos be served every day. Damon quizzed Obama about whether he liked mangos. The president does, for the record, but he wasn't sure if it's a good choice because they only grow in warm climates.
