This is America, after all, so the Newseum is asking its visitors to vote on the dog President-elect Obama should buy for his daughters. The sign reads: "The American Kennel Club recommended five hypoallergenic breeds for Malia, who has allergies, and Sasha. But Obama says they would prefer a dog from a shelter. What kind of dog do you think the Obama family should take to the White House?: Poodle, Wheaten Terrier, Bichon Frisé, Chinese Crested, Miniature Schnauzer [or] Shelter Dog."
