Be encouraged Mr. President. So many of us know that you are doing your best for the American people (whom I have no doubt that you love). Despite the negative voices that will spin whatever you do, I am so proud of you and First Lady Michelle. My memory is not so short. Thank you for saving us from the brink of financial disaster. Thank you for health care. Thank you for saving the auto industry. Thank you for bringing troops home. Thank you for battling for struggling families and then negotiating with those whose only mission is to destroy your presidency. Thank you your service to America. I am praying for you and your family.
GOD BLESS YOU MR. PRESIDENT. WE THANK GOD FOR YOU. WE PRAY FOR YOU CONSTANTLY. THANK GOD FOR THE JOB YOU ARE DOING IN SPITE OF ALL AND WHO COMES UP AGAINST YOU. JUST KEEP DOING THE FINE JOB THAT YOU ARE DOING AND GOD WILL REWARD YOU FOR YOUR FAITHFULLNESS. BE BLESSED.

Beautiful!
Absolutely precious.
As the daughter of a retired Army Colonel, who fought for this country, I know how much daughters need dads.
This young lady and her sister are truly blessed, not because their dad is the president, but because their dad loves them and is there for them. Nothing trumps that.

P.S. You should come to be mayor of New York city If you like. Bloomberg is killing us.
These photos are fantastic. They show so clearly what I firmly believe: we are blessed with a President far above the ordinary, a true gift from God to us and the world for these troubled times. I am so proud of him. He is a tower of strength in the midst of the storms of negativism that swirl around him. Believing in the power of prayer, I pray for him continuously. God bless him, now and always!
Thank you, from daddy’s little girl.
Mr. President Real Americans are praying that God will give you everything you need to turn the Country’s nighmare around.You have done more in one day than bush did in one year.
May GOD Bless You and Your Family.
