STORYLINE
Barack Obama, his wife Michelle and their daughters Malia and Sasha are poised to become the first African American family to occupy the White House.
During his speech at a delirious victory rally in Chicago on Tuesday night, Obama told 10-year-old Malia and seven-year-old Sasha that they would get the puppy he promised.
Curtis Roosevelt, the grandson of former US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, believes the Obama family will "bring their own style" to the White House.
After his first year at Harvard Law School, Obama worked one summer at a corporate law firm in Chicago where his adviser was Michelle Robinson, another Harvard law graduate and a product of a working-class family.
They later married and had Malia and Sasha.
A former colleague of the President-elect, Douglas Baird believes the Obamas will come across as more of a family than some previous Democratic occupants of the White House such as the Carters and the Clintons.
