Obama is such an amazing man. To have to put up with so much hatred & nastiness on a daily basis has got to take a toll. I honestly feel for their entire family for having to endure the constant badgering & be day in and day out
Thank you for posting this in the BOG where it is safe from the haters

It is fun to be in the same decade with you. ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
I am glad to have lived long enough to see this caliber of man in office. It was worth it to see this in my latter years.
