It's nice to have a Pres. addressing Congress who speaks English and a Vice President sitting behind him that doesn't look snarky and evil

As a Canadian, I've never envied Americans about thier leader. I have respected a few American Presidents, disprespected only one. But now, I sit here in envy, wishing Barack Obama was a Canadian. (But knowing he is exactly where the world needs him to be.)

Only a few things that has me wondering about Barack Obama. Why does he want his own private army outside of the US army and 1million man youth brigade? And whats up with the FEMA camps they said they didn't exist 2years ago and now apparently its for the American peoples safety? Can anyone answer me please? Because this sort of stuff sounds very familiar from past president of Europe and Asia, the other thing that's strange is no one seems to be wondering about this? Or is there?

So glad i voted for Obama. He's so cool under pressure. I'm sure He will pull us out of this. It's just gonna take some time. We didn't get in this mess overnight so don't expect Obama's Administation to solve this issue overnight. Be patient folks.

Vice President Biden is behind President Obama, next to Nancy Pelosi. I think that is Beau Biden home from Iraq
