WATCH: President Obama Dances With Adorable Kids In Alaska

President Barack Obama capped off a three-day visit to Alaska this week by performing a traditional Yup’ik dance on Wednesday at a middle school in Dillingham, Alaska.

“Keep up your traditions even as you go out into the big world, and learn and bring back the knowledge that’s going to help build this community,” he told the youth dance group and children in attendance after the performance. “We’re very, very proud of all of you.”

  5. Cute. Gotta love him. His white genes clearly dominate his dancing tho…
