Again, even as a man I can say nothing about this president and his family that will not make me look unmasculine. I love what this all represents and look forward to 8 years. Secret Service keep them safe, I pray for you as much as I pray for them.

[KayDGee]

AMEN!! We have someone to really pray for now...
Does anyone know if there is a video of the booty-bump? I saw it live. But only photos since then. As the young girl said, "He's got it goin' on."

[sweetwhine]

Stop calling it the "Booty-bump"? It's just called the "Bump".

[FloridaEvans]

You are a man. Whatever you say is therefore masculine. Plus, you shouldn't worry about that ish - Barack Obama is OUR president - it's okay to speak your mind, now :)

Bashing Black women says more about you and your inability to understand human behavior, your obvious lack of historic knowledge, and the declining state of your mental abilities.

When I'm going on about my daily bidness, the "President " and "First Lady " Obama, being our first African-American Presidential,,,, can I say "ROYALTY"? hardly phases me; because the future has been accomplished and I never doubted any humans ability to move forward-it was just a matter of time before a transition took place. But when I see what America has done to the best of their ability and heart and soul- I look at the Obama's party pictures and maaaan! This is so beautiful. The conflict involving a persons skin color has now became nothing more than a phantom, a ghost, it will lose it's effect in near time.

not soon enough.

Many Blacks in America are suffering from the legacy of racism and discrimination. It shows in the self destructive behavior that plagues the Black community. Blacks need to work on their collective mental health problem and whites need to do the same.
Only after each group rids themselves of these destructive behaviours, racism will always be as American as "apple pie."

It is really refreshing to see people having some unscripted fun! Real people...not another in a line of dour monarchical-like leaders who goof for the camera to appeal to the masses!

[SmallTownChick]

These are great pictures of the Obamas!
