I LOVE the first three photos! They seem like such a fun family. I am cracking up at the cat dressed up as Joe Biden.

What an amazingly beautiful family in the first few pictures. Haha bidan as a cat. But that little boy is so cute and how amazing for him when he looks back years later and sees that he was Obama in the year Obama got elected!

Loved the Halloween pics! My absolute all-time favorite? Definitely 'Obama Getting His Groove On' by Tita Mahoney. Reminded me of him showing off his moves on The Ellen Show. Great costume, even down to the power-red tie! Good job, Tita!

Hello Ms. Elfwitch

"Cute". A baby on a pitchfork. Doesn't really fit with the spirit of the rest of the pics.

LISTEN ALL: Please Go Vote! There has been confirmed reports of voter disenfranchisement and election fraud with the Republican Party and it's supporters. Obama is need of all the votes necessary to create a landslide. Let's make sure that our state turns blue! Bring your friends and family - make it a group thing! Wouldn't you want to say 1 year from now, 5 years from now, or even 20 years from now that you contributed to the most highlighted election in US history? Wouldn't you be proud to tell your kids/grandkids years from now that you voted for this election? It will be the most talked about election for centuries. Voting is a right and a privilege. Let's all make history together!

Picture #9 looks like historical author David McCullough and Will Smith

Picture #11 the late McClean Stevenson and Marla Gibbs

I like the disgusted look directed at the jerk in the Obama-Devil costume. Take the costume off, and my disgust remains.

I hope he got jeered that night.
