Original - Park View Little League from Chula Vista, California won the 2009 Little League World Series after beating Taoyuan County, Taiwan in the World Series Finals. It was the first Little League World Series victory for San Diego County since El Cajon in 1961. In this photo the team is meeting President Barack Obama in the East Room, with Congressman Bob Filner the representative of California's 51st congressional district which includes Chula Vista in it. The team awarded President Obama a jersy signed by the team.

Reason

It is a good picture of the team with President Obama and Congressman Bob Filner.

• Oppose; angle/composition are uninspired, background is distracting, many faces are obscured. The picture was clearly designed to be taken from a different angle. J Milburn (talk) 10:04, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
• Oppose Per J Milburn. (voting from an Apple store today on a Macbook Air with a SSD hard drive) Greg L (talk) 20:05, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
• Oppose per JM. gazhiley.co.uk 15:21, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
• Weak support FWIW This isn't that bad, but it has some problems mostly per J Milbrn, like Obama standing right in front of a champion I presume and the lights are blown out. The man to his left has a freaky smile. --I'ḏ♥One 20:12, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
