Obama and Biden were a FABULOUS team. And it seems they're also very close friends and I've no doubt that friendship will last the rest of their lifetimes. So proud of all Obama has accomplished. I hate HATE seeing him go!

Barack Obama has to turn over the keys to the White House to Donald Trump.

We are going from a good person to a miserable human being.

I was lucky enough to see him speak once. It will be a highlight of my life. The youngest of the few heroes I have in my life.


Peace
