These pictures say more about a person than any speech, book, or interview. He shows sincerity, heart, caring and humanity.
All the Republican wackos always say people like Obama because he is the "in thing," the media darling, it's politically correct. No, people like him because he seems to be sincere and to truly care about the meek in our society. Please, I want the Obama's as my neighbors any day and anytime than "Who let the Dogs Out" Romney or any other other bourgeoisie-fascist Repukicans!
Peace

These pics are too cute.

I'm cherishing his 8 years in office and hope whoever follows is as compassionate as the POTUS.
