It's not every day, even around here, that such renowned personalities visit 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. On Sunday, the President and First Lady hosted a reception for this year's Kennedy Center Honorees: Dave Brubeck, Mel Brooks, Grace Bumbry, Robert DeNiro, and Bruce Springsteen. Together, they represent a remarkable spectrum of talent and accomplishments. We were able to grab a few moments with them to hear how it feels to be honored for their lifetime accomplishments. And we are reminded, that while Barack Obama may be the President, there's only one Boss.
