When President George W. Bush met with French President Nicolas Sarkozy before the 2008 election, he already knew that Barack Obama would win. How? His daughters — Barbara and Jenna — were two of Obama’s biggest fans. That’s according to Jean-David Levitte, the former French Ambassador to the U.S. who then served as Sarkozy’s top foreign policy advisor, telling a French newspaper that “Bush believed that Obama would win because his twins swore by him.” (That statement appeared in a print article on Friday, but isn’t available online.)
