"dress down," while everyone else is in stupid suits.

Dammit...after 8 years of every move being watched and judged!

how do you think he is doing? Emotional, mental health-wise - and physical - with this disaster? As hard as it is on all of us, one can only imagine how it is for him.

at how relaxed, healthy and vibrant he was. He was passing through some offices and stopped briefly to say high and the whole room was electrified when he walked in and he immediately put everyone at ease and was funny and at ease.

All of this is water off the duck's back. He takes the long view.

I would vote for this man again if I had the opportunity. This is a man that Lincoln would hang out with if he was alive today. Obama channels Lincoln.
