Barack Obama complains about getting 'older and creakier'

US President Barack Obama has complained about the aches and pains of getting older.

According to China Daily, during an interview with retired NBA star Charles Barkley, 52-year-old Obama said that he plays basketball about once a month now because he is getting a little older and creakier.

Obama also asserted that he has to start thinking about his elbows and how he would look if he breaks his nose right before a State of the Union address.
