President Barack Obama celebrated his birthday Thursday, he is now 50 years old!

That historic morning as usual he worked in the Oval Office, then in the afternoon he attended a party given by his staff. Obama and his family - including the first lady, Michelle (47) and their daughters, Malia (13) and Sasha (10) - also attended a private party with their friends on Thursday night.

Earlier, on Wednesday, Obama aides treat the so-called pre-birthday event burgers and fries on Capitol Hill. Not long after, he flew to Chicago for a fund-raiser for the campaign.

One of the event, attended by about 1,700 people, there are also performances from Jennifer Hudson (who led the people to sing "Happy Birthday"), jazz musicians, Herbie Hancock and the rock band, Ok Go.

Then the president went on to dinner, where he delivered a joke about her age. "When I woke up, I get an email from the AARP (the foundation that helps elderly people aged above 50 years) who asked me to call the president and told him to protect Medicare," Obama joked. (Proponents of paying U.S. $ 35,800 [approximately Rp305, 54 million] to attend the dinner.)

Obama just got to Washington D.C. after midnight, so actually the President of the country "Uncle Sam" had officially entered the age of 50 in plane Air Force One.
