Shoe photo caption:

Senator Obama was doing press interviews by telephone in a holding room between events. Sometime later as he was getting ready to begin his event, he asked me if I was photographing his shoes. When I said yes, he told me that he had already had them resoled once since he entered the race a year earlier. Providence, R.I., 3/1/2008.

I just liked the image.
The photo must be at least three years old if he is Senator Obama.
Thanks for making me aware that this is not current.
