Two days after President George W. Bush's library opened in Dallas, Obama joked about the location of where his future spot would be built.
"I'm also hard at work on plans for the Obama library," he said. "Some have suggested that we put it in my birthplace but I'd rather keep it in the United States."

The next line was something like, "who didn't see that joke coming? Just Gallup? And Dick Morris?"
