3. These are excellent photographs. My compliments to the talented photographer.
And it's still fun seeing our President's handsome visage so close to People.

That damn near 70% approval rating -- people REALLY must be hatin' on him... huh?

What makes me so frustrated is that the haters ARE so loud.

12. As a Trinidadian-American
These pictures bring tears to my eyes and help ease some of the leftover nausea offered up on display with those astroturf "tea parties." My family back home is absolutely ecstatic for President Obama's arrival tomorrow. Thanks so much for this, Jackeens. :)

20. I always feel like such a sap
when I see photos like these. I can't pinpoint exactly why they make me tear up a little, but they do.

Now, completely unrelated...they certainly like their pants tight, don't they.

23. Jackeens, lovely pictures, thanks. My friends in Trinidad are beyond
thrilled that President Obama is visiting there first. If he were to visit Barbados, Guyana, Antigua or any of the islands, he would be just as welcomed. He is a hero in the Caribbean.
