Barack also explains how the family are not looking forward to moving to capital hill when he wins the presidential race. “They are not looking forward to moving. They have a wonderful life in Chicago, they have lifelong friends in Chicago and the prospects of having to make new friends, that's never something that kids are looking forward to.”

Barack also says that the family “won't be heartbroken if things don't work out.”
