(Jesse Jackson was never more right when he said years ago that we need to spend more money on the front end. Early childhood education is key to our future.)

1. I love him with kids. They just beam, and so does he.

:kick:

[frazzled]

6. He does seem happiest around them

Genuinely so. Too bad 4-year-olds can't vote!

[Tarheel_Dem]

7. Agreed. My grandma always used to say that kids & pets are the best judges of character.

They just seem to sense who's genuinely a good person. Of course, there are exceptions. :hi:

2. The one big asset Obama has going into 2012 (other than the GOP candidates)

is that over 70% of the American people (except for hard line tea baggers) like him personally and consider him a likeable individual. So the GOP will have to be careful how they go about attacking him in 2012.

3. I agree with you,...

...but I think that the baggers are so insulated in their little groups and their spoon fed faux talking points that they believ e that the public HATES the president as much as they do. I think they'll spill a level of venom that will severely turn off the general public the way the mcsame/palin(comparison) rallies did.

Thanks for sharing.

PEACE!

4. I grew up just a stone's throw from Yeadon.

I used to go to the Yeadon theatre for a buck when I was a kid. Delaware County PA used to be 75%+ rethug. It's quite a bit more competative now.

Great Pictures, thanks.

PEACE!

8. Wow. What a gorgeous girl, even with that Rihanna Red hair

9. I'd love to know what he was talking to the kids about!

Great pics!

Thanks!

10. Now he's bowing

To children. When will he ever stop apologizing? :sarcasm:
