1. Tears of nostalgia for the love and empathy in his every pore.

[Iliyah]

2. Democratic Party's classy member!

[Corgigal]

3. The boss.

And he doesn’t have to play guitar either.

[IcyPeas]

4. I try to not use cliches..... but

those kids really are the future! A lot of them will remember meeting President Obama because of the pictures.

you will never ever - never ever- see this with the current................... oh forget it

[lunatica]

10. Some of those pictures are from the beginning of his Presidency

Some of those kids are 11 years older now.

5. What a wonderful collection of pictures.

I love the video of Michelle holding a crying baby and hands to Obama and it stops crying. So cute. Lots of wonderfully peaceful, serene, loved filled moments.

8. I remember that picture

He gave Michelle a look that said, “ See? I’m Da man!”

Another ‘I got this’ moment.

[a kennedy]

6. Damn I miss him so much.......

[Bayard]

7. And he always looks just so damn happy to be there!

And the kids certainly respond to that. They know genuine when they feel it.

9. The racists hate the genuine love on display in these photos

which is why they are sowing hate these days - these are absolutely beautiful.

You'll never see pics like those with Don the Con.

[lunatica]

11. It's good to remember those days

I like to think we aren’t as racially divided as it looks like right now. Or as mean and cruel and hateful.

[malaise]

15. Agree

He and his goons are poison

27. I was talking to a very old lady at the nursing home I visit-

And she said, out of nowhere, that "that Obama was the devil."
I was sort of shocked, and said, "Oh, no, he's a very good man."
She said defiantly, "No, he's not a Christian, not like Trump."
I wish I had those photos then to show her a man so good that children instinctively trust him.

But she probably would have said that the children were devils too.

But most of us think -- well, not that he's an ANGEL, but that he is indeed a very good man, and those kids are RIGHT-- they can trust him.

29. I would have laughed in her face and walked away

12. The Way We Were

[NurseJackie]

13. Perfect.

[Solomon]

17. The pictures make me cry.

[Skidmore]

18. President of a lifetime.

I hope these babies grow up and learn about the great heart of this man and seek that quality in all their leaders.

19. Don't forget the tiara!

I also have a pic of him petting my (then) 10-month-old granddaughter's head!

[lunatica]

30. Oh yeah! Thanks for posting this one!

There are just too many to post. I started collecting them as they were being made public so I don’t have to go hunting for them.

[Dan]

20. Has anyone ever seen a picture of Trump with a child

Aside from his “seriously weird” pictures of him and his daughter when she was a teenager?

[Dem2theMax]

21. The very last photo.

I'm the child, and that's how I felt for eight wonderful years. I was safe, because I knew that man was in charge.

And now?

[Submariner]

22. The toddler tantrum photos were a favorite of mine

[Delphinus]

23. What a breath of fresh air.

Thank you.

[lpbk2713]

25. Thanks.

It was good to feel good about a president even if only for a minute.

[DesertRat]

26. And this one

President Obama quoting Nelson Mandela after Charlottesville

"No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion..."
