"The Obamas-You Can't Fake That!" Compilation of Pics With the Obamas Connecting With Our Kids :)) [View all]

From the author.. The songs are from Sarah McLachlan and Whitney Houston~

“A depiction of the Obamas with Our Greatest Resource – Our Children. No Copyright infringement is intended with the use of these songs. This video was not created for monetary gain.

How this video came about. I started in early 2009 to see lots of pictures all over the Internet of the Obamas with kids. They seem to really enjoy talking to, and connecting to children. They seemed patient, attentive, and loving in the photos I saw. A couple weeks ago I did a search to see how many pictures there were. Oh My Goodness!! In order to make this video short enough to be palatable to the average viewer, heeding my husband, Christopher’s advice, I whittled down the first video removing 65 photos that I downloaded. There are an incredible amount of photos of this President and First Lady with kids. I hope you enjoy seeing a positive view of our First Family. Please feel free to share. I am so appreciative of the positive response.”
