Here's what the photographer said, in the (currently) last comment on that photo:
"It actually wasn't a posed shot. Obama was wading through a heard of event volunteers when someone passed the hat through the crowd to him and he put it on for a laugh. There just happened to be a ton of photogs in the vicinity. He probably wore it for maybe a minute before giving it back."

"Heard of kitten?"
"Of course I've heard a kitten, he's so loud that I could hardly avoid it!"
