President Barack Obama hosted his last White House Correspondents annual dinner this weekend. Obama's presidency is set to end on January 20, 2017, when the 45th president is expected to take office.
The WHC annual dinner, which began in 1920, takes place every year to "acknowledge award-winners, present scholarships, and give the press and the president an evening of friendly appreciation".
