President Bush and President-Elect Obama meet at the White House

Today, in a historic meeting has taken place at the White House between President George Bush and First Lady Laura, and President-Elect Barack Obama with his wife Michelle. Both families met and had a private meeting inside the White House. The meeting between the two families have historical significance. Normally the outgoing and incoming first families do not meet this soon after an election, especially since they are from different parties, but due to the importance of a smooth transition of power during these very difficult economic times, it was definitely proper. Whenever possible, I will provide videos supporting the story, like the one immediately below.
