In the run up to Chicago's Olympic bid, the White House held a youth sporting event with former Olympians including Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Dominique Dawes.

Last night First Lady Michelle Obama presented Chicago’s case for bringing the 2016 Summer Olympics to the city of broad shoulders, and did she ever look good doing it!
