President Obama folds cranes during his Hiroshima visit

I'm impressed:  President Obama can fold paper cranes.

President Obama made a symbolic gesture at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Friday, leaving two origami cranes behind at a memorial to a 12-year-old victim of the Hiroshima bomb who became famous for folding cranes as she died.

The White House said Obama visited Sadako's memorial and presented paper cranes to two local school children. Then, after signing the guest book, he left two more paper cranes alongside his inscription.
