When John F. Kennedy was elected I thought he was the best President in my (12 year old) lifetime..

Then Jimmy Carter was elected and HE was the best President in my (now 28 year old) lifetime.

Then Bill Clinton was elected and HE was the best President in my (now 44 year old) lifetime.

Then Barack Obama was elected and HE was the best President in my (now 60 year old) lifetime.

Now Joe Biden was elected, and I'm sure that he is the best President in my now 72 year old lifetime.

I hope I live long enough to see Kamala Harris elected as the best President in my lifetime!

But no one will beat Obama for me.

Love Joe, supported him for prez since 2018. Biden could be as good a president as Obama, but never a better one.

Our entire school was (were) loaded on busses and went to greet him.

What an exciting day!
