  1. I guess President Obama has to much class, and intelligence for those people in the
    White House. Most of those people had to fight and were back biting to get where they are today. Were you taught those same people you mistreat and disrespect will come back to haunt you. It may not come from that person but somewhere else. Its ok to agree to disagree but give that person respect like you would like to have. The foreign Presidents give President Obama more respect then we do.

  2. I am so proud of this family. It is so bad that the world can not see all the postive things that have happen here.

    As always he has to show 10 times more than others, but because he prays, has faith, has morals, and has many other people praying for him and his family of which I am one.

    We have something in common, we had strong grandmothers. My grandparents were key in my being who I am.

    The other thing we have in common is the spelling of Madelyn, that is my name and it was the name of his grandmother.

    I want to say to the first family, don’t believe all the hype, you have peopl in your corner and who see what you are trying to do.

    We love you first family.

  3. Unfortunately there will always be detractors,but as long as there is just one light that can guide those who are willing to see the good in people and our country, we will always persevere. God bless our president & God bless our country.

  4. I thank God everyday for our President Obama. Many people may say Obama out of disrespect. But he deserves the same respect as Clinton, Bush or any of the other previous Presidents. But its not what man thinks that matters. God raised up an unknown from among the masses of political men and woman and I think God everday. Only God raises up kings and tear down kings. Many great things as happened in White House since his presdidency. Man don’t have to approved him, God did. And I think God for allowing me to live to see how people from all nationalities can truly come together for good.

  5. I am very optimistic about the future. I think God everyday and pray for President Obama and his family. Only God can raise up an unknown from the political ranks and make King of the land. No man is above God and God makes no mistakes.

  6. These are beautiful pictures of our leader. I look forward to the picture when the President signs the immigration reform act and the dream act and he is surrounded by immigrants and their children. That day and picture will come one day.

  9. Thank you, Mr. President.

    I am grateful for your leadership and vision. I am happy every time I see your beautiful family. It makes me proud to be an American and know that you are building our country to become an American family once again, one in which we know that we all belong to each other. Our fates are tied together: from many, one.

    Thank you.

  10. Mr. President,

    You are truly a symbol of what makes this country the land of opportunity. You make me proud to be an American. Your challenges have been tough, but you continue to rise to those challenges with dignity, humility, and grace. You are a great example for all to pattern. Thank you for inspiring me to handle my challenges in the same manner.

  12. Thank you President Obama for your presence; for your ability to listen to the truth; to know the truth, and your wisdom from God to act on the truth. You have made a Difference, and I praise God to be a witness for you and your family.

  13. I THANK GOD FOR OBAMA. I KNOW IT IS GOD”S WILL HE BE IN OFFICE. IT ONLY MAKES ME SAD THAT SO MANY AMERICANS CAN NOT APPRECIATE THIS GREATNESS. HOW CAN WE BE A GREAT NATION WITH OUR PREJUDICE VIEWS. THE LACK OF RESPECT PRESIDENT OBAMA IS SHOWN IS A DISGRACE TO OUR COUNTRY. LET US ACCEPT HIM AS GOD”S GIFT TO US IN THESE TRYING TIMES.I WISH ONLY THE BEST FOR HIM AND HIS FAMILY AND ADMINISTRATION. I AM GRATEFUL FOR BEING ABLE TO VIEW HIS PRESIDENCY.

  15. I THANK GOD for bringing Barack and Michelle in all our lives even the ones who don’t know how good they are truly BLESSED!!!! I know that they WILL NOT knock you off of that ROCK … Continue to be strong. GOD BLESS you and your family 😉

  16. Don’t worry Mr. President, when God is for you no man can be against you. Don’t believe the news hype, there are millions of people that are for you! Some simply didn’t know how critical it was to vote last election. They were looking for everything change over night. Misguided in deed. They like me, who knew enough to vote, realize that our nation is blessed to have a man of your intellect as President of these United States. You are doing an excellent job of fixing the mess that was set in place before you came into office. Keep the Faith. I love you and your family. God loves you too. I will be an active participant in your re-election in the next two years.

  18. President Obama, it was not sheer coincidence that you were elected. It was God’s plan. He will help you to endure all opposition. Stay prayerful and faithful to Him and He will see you through. Keep your head up.

  19. Thank you President Obama for representing all the people of America.We’ve needed you for years,and, we apologize for taking this long to realize it.

  20. Mr. President know that our creator’s plan is divine, no mistakes, our job is to be faithful and work for a better world for all.

    Thank you Mr. President, I am so happy and grateful for you.

  21. This is great information and I think that President Obama is doing an Outstanding Job.

  22. There has never been a President who has exhibited such intelligence, respect, eloquence, grace, integrity, moral fiber, a spiritual connection with God, dedication and hard-working in office. President Obama has shown, inspite of the obvious opposition he’s had to contend with, he will make a difference during his term in office. President Obama has given us all something we can be proud of, he’s fighting tooth and nail for all Americans to have Universal Healthcare, because everyone deserves to have medical care when needed. He’s made provisions for those who would like to complete their education, while working to support their families. He’s provided extensions of unemployment for those who need it, and the list goes on.. This is a man who tirelessly fights for the good of our country, and maintains an amicable relationship with our foreign allies. Man just doesn’t get much better than this.

  23. Thank you President Obama and First Lady

    You have brought about love, charity and good will to all mankind. I am 23 year veteran DC Police Officer; I served during your election and was honored. Since you have been in the office, medical care is better you forced them to treat us like they would want to be treated if they got sick, you signed the 911 bill for the injured Public Servants, job opportunities are there, the housing market is being investigated to stop taking advantage of good people who work hard everyday. Now, I have taken a stand and joined your National Initiative to give back. Thank you for answering the call of duty as a Public Servant with making the world a better place to live and enjoy.
