The Whitehouse.gov website has an interesting method for naming TOTUS photo files. Photos by various White House staff photographers, including Lawrence Jackson and Pete Souza, are located in a subfolder named "assets/hero" with file names including "hero_pressconf," "Hero_FathersDay," "Hero_ServeGov2," and "hero_AMA."
Follow this:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/assets/hero/hero_pressconf.jpg will find today's montage of TOTUS faces during the press conference.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/assets/hero/hero_AMA.jpg yields TOTUS speaking at the AMA convention.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/assets/hero/Hero_FathersDay.jpg reveals TOTUS frolicking with his daughters and his namesake dog.

Excellent find NN. Just as creepy too. I cannot imagine holding that sort of allegiance to a politician.

This was previously debunked.
In photography, the “hero” is what you call the shot you will publish of the many that you take. So the photographer sifts thorough 50 shots of one subject, picks the few that are good and finally names one the “hero” from that series.
It’s not “hero” worship (in this case). Just a naming convention.
