barak and michelle show to america and the world that if you have hopes, dreams and faith that you can make it. look at all the thousands of people they speak to everyday, talking about there stories coming from working class backgrounds. that is a real story for everyone to see. education and helping people, black and white has made them candidates for the biggest office in the world. i think they are real inspiration

What wouldn't a woman give to have their husband that protective of and devoted to them?

They're beautiful people and a wonderful family :D I'm really happy for them.

It just goes to show how strong Obama's sense of right and wrong, and how open-minded he is that he attended this church for 20 years, but still is the man he is today.
